Once you cancel from any device, your subscription will no longer apply to any of your Apple platforms. This includes your Apple TV devices, so you don’t need to do it twice. It’s generally much easier to manage your subscriptions using one of our methods above, but if you only have an Apple TV streaming device to work with, you can do so via Settings > Users and accounts and log in with your information to find the Subscriptions section.
