Hello john john Pter, it's important to understand that just stopping the App Services does not reduce your cost. In other words, there's no concept of "stopping" as far as App Services are concerned, purely from a pricing perspective. If you want to stop the cost, you necessarily need to either delete the app or update the SKU to the Free tier. This is called out explicitly in the pricing FAQ page as well - https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/app-service/windows/
