switch to annual Cricut subscription

It turns out that the only subscription option available through the App Store for Cricut Access is for the monthly Standard plan. Neither of the annual plans is available through that method. So I have to cancel the subscription through Apple, then subscribe at cricut.com to the annual Premium plan. This is still not as simple as it sounds. Cancelling the subscription was easy but it only expires as at the renewal date (as it should) - in my case the 5th Jan, 2023. But this means that I continue to have an active subscription. And, in turn, that I cannot therefore add a new subscription to my Cricut account. So until next year the benefits of the Premium plan will not be available to me.
