Apple Creative Studio free offer not appearing in subscriptions

I redeemed a three-month free Apple Creative Studio offer with my new iPad. It says Purchased, but the subscription doesn’t appear in Settings → Subscriptions or in my Purchase History. I want to make sure it will not renew and charge me after the free period

Hi there


Please try this


1. Check your Subscriptions from Inside the App

Sometimes complex app bundle subscriptions do not correctly populate the primary iPadOS menu immediately but can be found within the app where you claimed the offer. 


  1. Open an app included in the bundle that you used to redeem the offer, such as Final Cut Pro or Logic Pro on your iPad.
  2. Tap the three dots (...) or your Account/Profile icon in the corner of the projects or main screen.
  3. Tap Manage, select Account, and then choose Manage Subscriptions. This will force-redirect you directly to the correct App Store subscription profile.
  4. If you see Apple Creator Studio, tap it and select Cancel Subscription.

Thank you! Yes, I see now that I would have to sign on through one of the apps but I would prefer not to subscribe at all! I have the apps I need already, like Pages, Numbers and Freeform. I am hoping that if I just leave things as they are, I won't be charged after the three months as I have not actually activated the offer. (To activate it, I would need to do as you suggest in your post) Thanks for responding.
