TWO popular apps used by millions of mobile users are set to shut down next week – and it might mean you’re owed some cash.
Mobile apps Pocket and Glitch will both close on 8 July.
Pocket was removed from app stores in late May, when sales of subscriptions also stopped.
But Pocket’s Premium subscribers may be owed refunds for the remaining time left on their subscriptions.
A subscription for the read-it-later app costs $4.99 per month or $44.99 (£32.99) per year.
So if you paid for an annual membership that will not be fulfilled, you should expect some money to be deposited back onto the card you used for payments.
Mozilla, which owns the app, said annual subscribers will receive their refunds after 8 July.
No action is necessary – just wait for the money to land.
It’s worth noting that while the app will shut down next week, users will have until 8 October to download their saved data before all Pocket data is permanently deleted.
The Glitch app, aimed at web developers, is also handing out refunds to its subscribers.
Those who forked out $96 (£70) for an annual Glitch Pro subscription and have paid time left will receive a refund.
Users have until the end of the year to download their projects before all the data is wiped for good.
