Request a Refund for Android Subscriptions via Google Play
Use this method if you originally downloaded and subscribed to Acrobat Premium through the Google Play Store.
Because mobile subscriptions are managed directly by the app store rather than Adobe, you must request your refund through Google Play. Adobe customer support cannot process refunds for Android mobile purchases.
Open a web browser and go to the official Google Play Store Help page for requesting a refund.
Sign in using the exact Google account you used to purchase the Acrobat Premium subscription.
Follow the on-screen prompts, select the unexpected Adobe Acrobat charge from your purchase history, and submit your refund request.
Request a Refund for iOS Subscriptions via Apple Support
Use this method if you subscribed to Acrobat Premium on an iPhone or iPad using your Apple ID.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why was I charged if I canceled my free trial?
If a trial is canceled less than 24 hours before it expires, the app store's automated billing system may still process the charge. Always cancel at least a day in advance.
Can Adobe directly refund my mobile subscription?
No, subscriptions purchased through mobile app stores are managed entirely by Google Play or Apple. Adobe cannot process these refunds directly.
How long does it take to get my app store refund?
Refund times vary by platform and payment method. Google Play usually takes 1 to 4 business days, while Apple refunds may take up to 30 days depending on your bank or credit card issuer.
