Hulu and You: A Love Story... on Hold?
Let's face it, even the greatest love stories fizzle out sometimes. Maybe you've met someone new (HBO Max with its hypnotic Euphoria?), or maybe Hulu just isn't making you laugh anymore (come on, enough reruns of The Mindy Project!). Whatever the reason, if you're looking to hit pause on your Hulu subscription that you pay for through Apple, you've come to the right place.
But First, a Word From Our Lawyers (Just Kidding, We're Chill)
This guide is specifically for folks who subscribed to Hulu through the wonderful world of Apple. If you signed up directly through Hulu's website, fear not, there's a different path to cancellation enlightenment (though we can't help you there... this time).
