Notes on in-app subscriptions:

Once you confirm your in-app subscription, your Google Account will be charged the corresponding amount. In-app subscriptions automatically renew for the term you selected. You can turn off automatic renewal of paid in-app subscriptions up to 24 hours before the expiration date by going to the Google Play Store on your device, tapping your icon, and selecting "Payments and Subscriptions," then "Subscriptions." If you do not cancel within the specified time period, the renewal fee will be debited from your Google Account 24 hours before the start of a new subscription. An ongoing in-app subscription cannot be canceled within the selected term.
