Score reflects intentional friction: hidden flows, required phone calls, guilt-trip dialogs, and refund opacity. Difficulty to find the service is not included.

Common issues

I cancelled Calm but the app still shows Premium.
Access continues until your current billing period ends. The cancellation is confirmed — you won't be charged again.
I bought Calm via the App Store — why can't I cancel on the website?
App Store subscriptions must be cancelled through iOS Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions. The Calm website cannot cancel App Store purchases.
