Hello again, everyone. We're officially one month away from closing the site down. We looked into some options to keep WelderSkills going in some capacity, but ultimately decided that closure still makes the most sense given the circumstances.

Our apps are officially delisted, and the monthly subscription is no longer available for sale. I'll be cancelling everyone's monthly subscription very soon to prevent you from being charged any further by WelderSkills. It's important to note, however, that your access will remain in place for the remainder of your current subscription period. (You may see an email in your inbox regarding that, so don't be alarmed if that's the case.). 

If your access ends in the next few days, but you'd like to continue using the site, send me an email joey@welderskills.com and I'll see what I can do. Also, feel free to email me with any other questions or concerns.

For mobile users, be sure to cancel your WelderSkills subscription from your device. Apple and Google manage all of your mobile subscriptions, so be sure to do that since they have a tendency to auto renew subscription products even when they've been removed from sale by the developer. (It's awful I know, but that's just how they operate)


As far as Dad's health is concerned, he is doing much better. His treatments are less intense as he gets prepped for a bone marrow transplant. He's in really good spirits and his doctors are confident that they can cure him! He's staying active and enjoying Florida with me and the rest of the Collier family.

As usual, If you have any questions regarding any of the above, leave a comment or email me joey@welderskills.com.

Good updates on Jody for those interested:

He's doing much better! His doctors are very happy with his lab results - he's staying very active and getting his strength back. The finish line is still a good ways off, but things continue to trend in the right direction.

For now, his treatments are less intensive, so he's able to go home every day and live his life - editing videos and working on Weldmonger stuff. We're feeling good about everything, and the road ahead looks clearer every day. 

A huge thanks to everyone who has supported him through all of this. It's been pretty incredible to see!

!If you signed up for an annual or monthly WelderSkills subscription from our iOS app, please read below!

As we approach our closure date in late July, I'm working to make sure that:

1. annual users who aren't able to get a full year of WelderSkills are provided with prorated refunds. 

2. iOS users aren't auto renewed when the site closes

Apple puts some extra hurdles in the process of doing that, so let me explain those really quick!

First, to cancel your current WelderSkills annual or monthly plan:

  • On your device open settings

  • Click on your name/profile at the top

  • Then subscriptions

  • Find WelderSkills from your subscriptions list  

  • Click cancel

  • This will make sure that you aren't auto renewed when we close the site!

If you signed up for the annual plan after July of 2024 you are eligible for a prorated refund!

To apply for a refund, follow the instructions here:

https://support.apple.com/en-us/118223

Let them know in the details that the WelderSkills service is ending in late July, before the end of your subscription period, so you'd like a refund for the remaining time that you won't be able to use.

If they deny your request, shoot me an email -  joey@welderskills.com or fill out the contact form and we'll take it from there!

Quick version:

Make sure you cancel your WelderSkills subscription from your iOS device since I can't do it on your behalf. Follow the link above if you'd like to request a refund and email joey@welderskills.com with any questions!

Thanks everybody

Hi Jesse. Very glad to hear that Dad's tips helped you! As for your question, yes monthly will auto renew until we close down.

Hey everybody, this channel is where I'll continue to provide updates and answer questions as we move closer to our site closure. Feel free to post in here with any questions about that. 

As of now, I've started work on refunds/cancellations.

Some of you will see automated emails stating that your account has been cancelled. This is to prevent you from getting billed prior to the site closing down. 

Just to be clear - you'll still have full access for your subscription period. I just don't want anyone getting hit with an annual auto renewal days or weeks prior to us shutting down. 

If you'd still like to have access at the end of your annual subscription (but BEFORE site closure), email joey@welderskills.com and I can help you with that!
