YouTube Premium is great for heavy consumers of either YouTube or YouTube Music. YouTube Premium removes ads from those services, lets you listen on a mobile device while YouTube or YouTube Music is running in the background, lets you download videos to watch offline, and more. If you gave YouTube Premium a try but don't feel like it's right for you, cancelling your subscription is easy. In this video I'll walk you through how to cancel YouTube Premium in both the YouTube mobile app for iPhone, iPad and Android devices, and also through the YouTube.com website.
