Cancel Djay: The Right Way
How to cancel djay and avoid losing your music library
What is djay and why you might want to cancel
Djay is a professional DJ mixing application that turns your smartphone, tablet, or computer into a full mixing studio. The app delivers real-time effects, AI-powered stem separation through Neural Mix, and integration with major streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music. If you subscribe to Djay PRO, you unlock advanced tools, hardware support, and premium mixing features.
You might be cancelling because you've found a better alternative, your music hobby has changed, or you simply want to go back to using the free version. Whatever your reason, Stopee is here to guide you through the process step by step, so you do not lose access unexpectedly or miss a refund opportunity.
Understanding your djay subscription
Djay offers both a free tier with basic mixing tools and a paid PRO tier with advanced features. Your subscription renews automatically on your chosen platform (Apple App Store, Google Play, Microsoft Store, or web), and you can manage it directly through that platform rather than through Algoriddim's website. This means cancellation happens where you paid, not through a separate company portal.
Common reasons to cancel djay
You might cancel because you do not use the app regularly, the subscription cost does not fit your budget, you prefer a different DJ software, or you want to pause your hobby. Stopee recommends reviewing your usage first: if you have not opened the app in 30 days, cancelling now prevents unnecessary charges while you decide whether to return later.
Your consumer rights in south africa
South African consumer law protects you when you cancel digital services, and Stopee wants you to know exactly what those protections cover.
The consumer protection act and digital subscriptions
Under South Africa's Consumer Protection Act (CPA), you have the right to cancel a digital subscription and request a refund if the service is defective, not delivered as promised, or if Algoriddim (Djay's developer) has misrepresented the features. However, South Africa does not have an automatic 14-day cooling-off period for digital services the way the EU does. This means you cannot cancel simply because you changed your mind within 14 days unless the app does not work as advertised.
If Djay fails to deliver promised features, crashes frequently, or does not integrate with your streaming service as marketed, you may have grounds for a refund under consumer protection law. Contact the National Consumer Commission (NCC) if the developer or app store refuses to help.
What to do if cancellation is blocked
If the app store refuses your cancellation request or you encounter a dark pattern (like hiding the cancel button), escalate to the NCC or your payment provider. Stopee advises documenting the issue: take screenshots of where you tried to cancel and note the date and time. Your payment provider (bank or credit card company) can also reverse charges if you report the transaction as unauthorised.
How to cancel djay on iOS and macOS
Cancelling Djay on Apple devices takes only a few minutes and happens entirely through your Apple ID settings, not through the app itself.
Step-by-step cancellation on apple app store
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
- Tap or click your name at the top of Settings.
- On iPhone and iPad, this appears at the very top of the Settings menu.
- On macOS, go to System Settings and select your Apple ID in the sidebar.
- Select Subscriptions.
- You will see a list of all active subscriptions tied to your Apple ID.
- Find Djay in the list and tap or click it.
- Tap Cancel Subscription.
- Apple may ask you to confirm the cancellation and show you the end date of your current billing period.
- Confirm your choice by tapping or clicking Cancel Subscription again.
Pro tip: Apple will continue to charge you until the end of your current billing cycle, so cancel as soon as you know you no longer want the subscription. Your PRO access remains active until that final billing date, giving you the full value of your current payment.
Warning: Do not delete the Djay app from your device before cancelling the subscription. Deleting the app does not automatically cancel your subscription, and you will continue to be charged. Always cancel through Settings first, then delete the app if you wish.
How to cancel djay on android via google play
Google Play makes cancellation straightforward, but the steps differ slightly from Apple depending on which device and menu version you have.
Step-by-step cancellation on google play
- Open the Google Play app on your Android device.
- Tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines) in the top left corner.
- Select Subscriptions from the menu.
- You will see all active subscriptions associated with your Google account.
- Tap Djay from the list of subscriptions.
- Tap Cancel Subscription.
- Google will confirm your cancellation and show your final billing date.
- Tap Cancel Subscription again to confirm.
Pro tip: Google Play processes refunds through its own support centre. If you have been charged for Djay and believe you should not have been, you can request a refund directly through Google Play Support within your account, separate from cancelling the subscription. Stopee recommends handling both actions: cancel the subscription to stop future charges, and request a refund for any disputed past payments.
Warning: Uninstalling the Djay app does not cancel your subscription. You must follow these steps in Google Play to stop recurring charges, even if you have already deleted the app from your phone.
How to cancel djay on microsoft store and other platforms
If you purchased Djay through Microsoft Store or a web-based platform, you manage your subscription directly through that store's account settings.
Cancellation via microsoft store
- Open Microsoft Store on your Windows device or at microsoft.com.
- Click or tap your account profile icon in the top right corner.
- Select App settings or Manage account and devices.
- The exact wording depends on your device and Microsoft account version.
- Find Djay under Subscriptions or Manage subscriptions.
- Click Cancel subscription and confirm your choice.
Microsoft will charge you through the end of your current billing cycle and then stop all future renewals.
Web-based and third-party store cancellations
Algoriddim (Djay's developer) does not manage cancellations through a central website. You cancel only through the platform where you purchased the subscription. Stopee advises checking your email receipt from your original purchase to confirm which store issued your Djay PRO subscription, then cancelling through that platform's account settings.
If you purchased Djay through a third-party retailer or reseller, contact that reseller's customer support to handle the cancellation, as they manage the billing relationship with you.
Djay pricing and plan details
Djay pricing in South Africa varies by billing period and currency, and understanding your current plan helps you plan your cancellation timing.
Current djay PRO pricing (South africa)
| Plan | Price (ZAR) | Billing period | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full Access to PRO (monthly) | R29.99 | Month | Testing the app; month-to-month flexibility |
| Full Access to PRO | R27.99 | Varies by store | Promotional pricing; limited availability |
| Full Access to PRO | R129.99 | Not specified | Longer commitment; varies by app store |
| Full Access to PRO | R214.99 | Not specified | Annual or one-time; check your receipt |
Your exact billing period depends on which plan you purchased and which app store you used. Check your subscription settings on your device to confirm whether you are charged monthly, quarterly, or annually. This affects when your final charge occurs and when your PRO access ends after you cancel.
What happens to your account after cancellation
Cancellation means your subscription stops renewing, but your data and local settings remain on your device unless you actively delete them.
Access and features after cancellation
Once you cancel, you keep full PRO access until the end of your current billing period. On the day after your final billing date, the app automatically downgrades to the free version. You will lose access to advanced mixing tools, hardware support, and premium features, but you retain the basic DJ functionality and can still use Djay as a free app.
Pro tip: Before your access expires, export any custom settings, playlists, or mixes you have created. Some DJ apps allow you to save projects as files that you can reimport later if you resubscribe.
Your data, settings, and account
Cancelling your subscription does not delete your Djay account or any data stored on your device. Your account login, settings, and any saved mixes remain intact even after you cancel. If you want to permanently delete your account and all associated data, you must contact Algoriddim support separately. Stopee recommends emailing their support team with your request and waiting for confirmation that your data has been removed.
Warning: Uninstalling the app deletes only the app itself and local files on your device. It does not affect your account data stored on Algoriddim's servers. To truly erase your presence in their system, you must request account deletion directly.
Refunds and what you can claim back
Refund policy for Djay depends entirely on the app store where you purchased your subscription, not on Algoriddim directly.
App store refund policies
Apple, Google, and Microsoft each manage refunds independently. Apple typically processes refunds within 3 to 5 business days, while Google Play can take up to 7 business days. Microsoft Store timelines vary depending on your payment method. Actual refund timing also depends on your bank or payment provider, which may take an additional 1 to 3 business days to credit your account.
Pro tip: Request a refund as soon as you decide you want one, rather than waiting until the end of your billing cycle. Stopee recommends keeping your original purchase receipt and noting the transaction ID from your bank statement, as this speeds up the refund process if the app store questions your claim.
When you can request a refund in south africa
You can request a refund from your app store if Djay did not work as advertised, failed to deliver promised features, or is defective. South Africa's Consumer Protection Act gives you the right to a remedy if the service is not fit for purpose. However, you do not have an automatic refund right simply because you changed your mind, unlike consumers in the EU.
If the app store refuses your refund request and you believe the app genuinely failed to deliver, escalate to the National Consumer Commission (NCC) or your payment provider. Your bank or credit card company can dispute the charge on your behalf if you report it as unauthorised or as a failure to deliver services.
Warning: The 14-day withdrawal (cooling-off) period mentioned on some app listings applies only to EU, UK, and Swiss consumers. South African law does not grant this automatic right, so do not rely on it if you simply regret your purchase.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling djay
Cancellation is straightforward, but a few common traps catch people off guard, and Stopee wants to help you avoid them.
Mistake 1: deleting the app instead of cancelling the subscription
The biggest trap is uninstalling Djay from your phone or tablet thinking this stops the charges. It does not. Your subscription continues to renew automatically until you cancel it through the app store. You will keep being charged even if the app is no longer on your device. Always cancel through your device settings first, then delete the app if you wish.
Mistake 2: cancelling on one platform but forgetting another
If you have Djay on both an iPhone and an Android tablet, you may have separate subscriptions on Apple App Store and Google Play. Cancelling on one platform does not affect the other. Check all your devices and app stores to ensure you have cancelled every subscription associated with your accounts.
Mistake 3: missing the confirmation screen
Both Apple and Google ask you to confirm your cancellation a second time after you tap "Cancel Subscription." If you do not complete this confirmation step, your subscription remains active and you will be charged again at the next billing date. Watch for the final confirmation and complete it before considering yourself done.
Mistake 4: not requesting a refund separately
Cancelling your subscription stops future charges but does not automatically refund past payments. If you believe you deserve a refund, you must request it separately through the app store's refund or support centre. Stopee advises doing this within days of your cancellation, as app stores limit how far back you can request refunds.
Timeline and checklist for cancelling djay
Use this checklist to ensure you complete every step and do not accidentally leave your subscription running.
Your cancellation checklist
| Task | Deadline | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Note your current billing date | Today | ☐ |
| Cancel subscription on all platforms where you have Djay | Within 1 week | ☐ |
| Export custom settings or mixes if needed | Before final billing date | ☐ |
| Request a refund if applicable | Within 7 days of cancelling | ☐ |
| Check your next billing date is no longer listed in your subscriptions | 1 week after cancelling | ☐ |
Complete each task in order and mark it off. Your subscription is fully cancelled only when no future billing date appears in your app store account.
Should you cancel djay, or should you keep it
Before you cancel, consider whether you might return to mixing music in the future, or whether you can use the free version instead.
Reasons to cancel
Cancel Djay if you do not mix music anymore, the subscription cost does not fit your budget, or you have found a better alternative DJ app that suits your style. Cancelling also makes sense if you have not opened the app in 60 days or more, as this signals you may not need the premium features.
Reasons to pause instead of cancel
Consider keeping your subscription if you mix music seasonally (for example, only during summer, or only at parties), if you are still learning the software and plan to return to it, or if the monthly cost is low enough to justify keeping "just in case." You can always downgrade to the free version instead of cancelling entirely: unsubscribe from PRO, keep the app installed, and use the basic features while you decide whether to resubscribe later.
If budget is the issue, Stopee recommends cancelling now rather than carrying charges you cannot afford. You can reinstall and resubscribe anytime in the future if your situation changes.
