We're sorry to see you go!

If you’re open to it, we’d love to hear why the app didn’t meet your needs, your feedback helps us improve.

⚠️ Important notes

  • Deleting the Beside app does not cancel your subscription.

  • Canceling your subscription does not delete your Beside account or erase your data.

  • Your cancellation process depends on where you originally subscribed (Apple, Google Play, Stripe).- If you receive a free trial, it will automatically expire at the end of the offer period unless a transition to a paid subscription is initiated.

💻 If you subscribed on macOS (Stripe billing)

You can cancel anytime from within the macOS app:

  1. Open Beside on macOS

  2. Go to Team & Plan

  3. Click on Current plan

✅ After cancellation, you'll receive a confirmation email. Your subscription will remain active until the end of your current billing cycle.


⚠️ Turn off call forwarding (mobile only)

If you had enabled Call Forwarding, make sure to disable it before canceling your subscription or deleting the mobile app from your phone.

Otherwise, calls may continue to be routed to your Beside number, which could lead to missed or undelivered calls.

Due to carrier restrictions, we're not able to disable call forwarding on your behalf, this must be done directly through your mobile carrier. If you're having trouble turning it off, we recommend contacting your carrier so they can reset your forwarding settings.

🗑️ Deleting your Beside account

Canceling your subscription does not delete your Beside account or erase your data.

ℹ️ To permanently delete your account, follow the steps in this article: Delete your Beside account.
