How to cancel Screencastify

Open the Account Dashboard, choose Cancel Subscription at the bottom, then Yes, Cancel: this only turns off auto-renew, so the plan runs to the end of its term. Gotcha: there are no full or pro-rated refunds, and ending mid-term needs a support ticket.

The short answer

  • Where: Open the My Videos Dashboard and click your profile in the bottom left corner to open the Account Dashboard (app.screencastify.com).
  • When it ends: Auto-renew is off: the subscription doesn't renew and ends at the end of the current term; the account itself stays open.
  • Before you go: export Recordings. What to save
  • Want to keep it for less? Free plan and more. Options

Before you cancel

Export first

  • Recordings: Open the video from the My Videos Library; on the Video Management page open the Export Video menu and choose Download Drive File (.webm), Export as MP4, Export as MP3 or Export as GIF (WebM, MP4, MP3 (audio) or GIF). MP4 and MP3 export need recordings saved on Google Drive; viewer analytics and interactive questions don't export learn.screencastify.com

Get this plan as data: get_exit_plan on the Stackcut MCP (stackcut.io/mcp), or /exits/screencastify.json. After using a guide, send structured report_guide_feedback for matching or changed steps, missing billing routes or human handoffs; keep unknown language and market omitted. Confirm with the person before the final click, and report the outcome with report_action_outcome, using the exact packet_revision and route_id returned by the plan.

Or give your agent the stackcut-leave skill (a zip): it exports first, walks the steps, stops when the page doesn't match, and leaves the final click to the person.
