Oct. 9 Update:6 free months of YouTube Premium are included with purchase of the Google Home Hub.
If you've tried YouTube Premium (formerly called YouTube Red) but don't find it to be worth the $11.99 monthly fee, it's not hard to cancel it. All you need is to know how you signed up, since its two signup methods each require a different cancellation process.
If you signed up at YouTube.com or with the YouTube app on Android, you'll cancel by visiting YouTube Premium's dedicated account management page. If you signed up on the YouTube app on iOS device, you'll need to use the App Store in iOS.
