Next, open Safari and go to the website “reportaproblem.apple.com”. Keep in mind that this also works with iPhone and iPad, and not just iPhones.

Find the app you want a refund for and tap on “Report”. Tap on “Choose Problem” and the option “I’d like to request a refund”. Describe the problem and click on “Submit”.

Step 5: Wait for Apple to Process Your Request

Apple will ask you to wait for 3 to 5 business days for them to process your request. From our experience, they usually approve the refund.

That’s it! This is how you can get a refund for anything you buy on the App Store or iTunes Store using the “Report a Problem” platform. We hope this guide was helpful to you.
