How hard is it to cancel Headway?
Headway scores 74/100 (grade B) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the US — a clearly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via in-app, online (self-serve), email.
Headway subscriptions can be cancelled via iOS App Store settings, Google Play account settings, or through the account portal at makeheadway.com; users may also email [email protected]. Cancellation must be completed at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period to avoid the next charge. Access continues until the end of the paid period with no proration. Refunds are explicitly stated as non-refundable once a transaction is made; app store purchases defer to Apple/Google refund policies, while website purchases are handled at Headway's sole discretion.

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights — scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
