auto_renewal_refund_denied
Problem: My subscription auto-renewed and I would like a refund
Solution: Hi!
Thank you very much for your message.
Your frustration is completely understandable—especially when a subscription renews unexpectedly. As is common with subscriptions, the plan does indeed renew automatically, which was disclosed during the purchase process. THe subscription can be managed easily within the account settings (if purchased through the web app) or your phone settings (if purchased through the App Store).
Please understand that we cannot offer refunds for missed or late cancellations. There are several reasons for this: each payment incurs non-refundable credit card/payment and refund fees, and we also bear infrastructure and support costs on our side. If we were to issue refunds in such cases, these fees would remain entirely with us. Accordingly, the right of withdrawal does not apply either, as this is a contract renewal.
Of course, we have canceled your subscription so that no further charges will occur.
At the same time, Studyflash has evolved significantly over the past year. In addition to improved flashcards, the following features are now available, among others:
- Summaries to quickly get an overview,
- Quizzes for active recall,
- Mind maps for visual structuring,
- Podcasts (automatically generated audio summaries),
- An AI tutor that helps with understanding, practicing, and reviewing.
This makes it possible not only to prepare effectively for exams, but also, for example, to practice a language efficiently. Perhaps you'll give Studyflash another chance.
Thank you very much for your understanding.
Note: This is the standard response for auto-renewal refund requests. Asked in French, German, Dutch variations.

app_store_refund_request
Problem: I subscribed through the App Store and want a refund
Solution: Hi,
Since your subscription was made through the App Store, any refund requests need to be handled directly by Apple. We don't have access to process refunds for App Store purchases.
To request a refund from Apple:
- Go to reportaproblem.apple.com
- Sign in with your Apple ID
- Find the Studyflash charge and select "Request a refund"
You can also contact Apple Support directly for assistance.
For cancelling future charges, please cancel the subscription in your iPhone Settings > Your Name > Subscriptions > Studyflash.
Let me know if you need any other help!
