What does Duolingo Super include?

Duolingo Super (previously called Duolingo Plus) removes all adverts from the app, gives you unlimited hearts so mistakes don't interrupt your learning, enables progress quizzes, and includes access to all lessons without any restrictions. The free version of Duolingo includes the same core lessons but with adverts and limited hearts.

Why does Duolingo charge me through Apple or Google?

If you subscribed to Duolingo Super through the iOS app or Android app, the payment is processed by Apple or Google respectively. This means the charge may appear as APPLE.COM/BILL or a Google Play charge rather than DUOLINGO on your statement.

Is the free version of Duolingo actually free?

Yes — Duolingo's core language learning features are completely free. If you're seeing a charge, you or someone on your device signed up for Duolingo Super. The free version includes all the same lessons with adverts between sessions and a hearts system that limits mistakes.

Q: How do I cancel Duolingo Super?

If you subscribed through the Duolingo app, you need to cancel through the platform you used: iPhone users cancel via Apple App Store (Settings → Subscriptions), Android users via Google Play (play.google.com → Subscriptions).

Duolingo Super — Language learning

✓ Legitimate charge

DUOLINGO on your bank statement is a charge for Duolingo Super — the paid premium tier of Duolingo, the world's most popular language learning app. Duolingo itself is free to use; if you're being charged, you or someone using your device subscribed to the Super plan (previously called Duolingo Plus).

Duolingo Super removes all adverts, gives unlimited hearts (so mistakes don't slow down your learning), and adds progress quizzes and offline access. Monthly plans cost around £6.99/month; annual plans work out cheaper per month. Duolingo also sometimes offers a Family plan allowing up to 6 accounts to share a single Super subscription.

A common reason people don't recognise the charge is that Duolingo runs promotional free trials — typically two weeks — that convert automatically to a paid subscription. If you subscribed through the iPhone or Android app, the charge may not appear as DUOLINGO on your statement but as an Apple or Google Play charge instead.

Questions about Duolingo charges

How do I cancel Duolingo Super?

The cancellation method depends on how you subscribed. iPhone/iPad: go to Settings → your Apple ID name → Subscriptions → find Duolingo and tap Cancel. Android: go to play.google.com → Subscriptions → Duolingo → Cancel. Website subscription: log into duolingo.com → Profile → Settings → Super Duolingo → Cancel subscription.

Why does my Duolingo charge appear as Apple or Google?

If you subscribed to Duolingo Super through the iOS App Store or Google Play Store, those platforms handle the billing. The charge on your statement will appear as APPLE.COM/BILL or a Google Play transaction rather than DUOLINGO. You'll also need to cancel through Apple or Google rather than the Duolingo website.

Can I get a refund for Duolingo?

If you subscribed through Apple or Google Play, their standard refund policies apply — Apple allows refund requests within 90 days via reportaproblem.apple.com; Google Play allows refunds within 48 hours or by contacting Google Play support. For direct Duolingo subscriptions, contact Duolingo support at duolingo.com and they will consider refunds for accidental charges or forgotten trials.

What is Duolingo Super Family?

Duolingo Super Family is a plan that lets up to 6 people share a single Duolingo Super subscription. The account holder manages the family group and invites others via email. It's more economical than individual plans if multiple people in a household use Duolingo.

Is Duolingo still free if I cancel Super?

Yes — cancelling Duolingo Super returns your account to the free tier, which still includes all the core language lessons. You'll just see adverts between sessions and be subject to the hearts system (limited mistakes per session). You don't lose any of your learning progress, streak, or XP when you cancel.
