How to Hide the Games You’re Playing on Steam
Steam shares your gameplay activity by default. If you’re playing Hello Kitty: Island Adventure or Bad Rats, you might want to keep your gameplay a secret. Here’s how to hide your Steam activity from your friends.
Hide Played Games From Your Steam Profile
Your Steam profile page normally lists all the games you’ve been playing and shows how many hours you’ve spent in all of them, focusing on what you’ve been playing in the last two weeks.
Steam profiles used to be public by default, but Valve made them private by default. Still, you may have made it public to work with a third-party service that reads information from your Steam profile, like IsThereAnyDeal, which scans your wishlist for games and lets you know if they’re for sale on other game stores.
To access your profile in Steam, hover over your username on the top bar and click “Profile.”
Click the “Edit Profile” button at the right side of the page to edit your profile.
Click “My Privacy Settings” at the right side of your page to find Steam’s profile privacy options.
