    The subscription button is not showing up?

    Open the settings app. Tap your name, then tap subscription. Tap the subscription that you want to mange. Don't see the subscription that you're looking for. Choose a different subscription option, or tap cancel subscription.

    I had been tapping on the icon, does that now allow for any cancellation option? Tapping on it does nothing.
