Hide game activity on Steam
We don’t always like to reveal our online status when playing games on Steam. But the Steam service is configured to share your gaming activity by default. To hide and stop sharing Steam games you’re playing:
- Hide Gaming Activity from Steam Chat
- Hide played games from your Steam Profile
1]Hide gaming activity from Steam chat
If you want to play a certain game secretly, you won’t want all your friends to receive any notifications about it. So, to avoid confusion, you can choose to go offline or offline or hide on Steam chat.
So to do that, click ‘Friends and Chat‘ options show up in the Steam window.
Now click on your username and select
- Offline or
- Invisible
From the list of options displayed. When done, your friends won’t be able to find what you’re playing, although the information will still show up in your profile page.
2]Hide played games from your Steam Profile
When you’re logged into your Steam account, move your mouse pointer over your username to select ‘file‘ Option.
Now, to access your profile in Steam, select ‘My privacy settings‘. This will open Steam’s profile security options for you.
You can configure your privacy settings here to control who can see your gaming activity. Also, to hide the game you can put ‘Game details‘ arrive ‘Private'.
When you select the above option, even your friends will be blocked from seeing the games you’re playing, even if you’re online in Steam chat.
