How To Display Your Activity Status On Discord

Do you want to show the game you’re playing on Discord as your status? Or do you want to display that you’re participating in a public stage on the app? In any case, you can show your activity status on the app. Follow our quick guide below, and we’ll teach you how to do it from your phone or computer.

Aside from using Discord to join different servers and participate in channels, you can also use the app to speak with your friends and to make new ones as well. If you want to meet new people on the app, you might want to show your activity status on the app.

By displaying your activity status, you can show other people the game you’re currently playing or when you’re attending an event. In this way, other users can know if it’s a good time to strike up a conversation or when to invite you to join their party in-game.

Here’s our guide about showing your activity status on Discord.

How to show your gaming activity as a status on Discord

If you want to show the game you’re currently playing or your current activity as a status on Discord, you can change your activity privacy on the app. As long as the app can detect your game or activity, it will automatically update your status and display it.

You can change your activity privacy settings, whether you’re using the Discord app on your phone or computer. Check our step-by-step tutorials below, and we’ll show you how to do so.

On your phone:

1. Launch the Discord app from your home screen or app drawer and sign in to your account.
2. Tap the hamburger icon on the top left corner of the current channel to open the menu.
3. Tap the profile icon on the bottom right part of your screen.
   
   
4. Go to your Privacy & Safety Settings.
   
   
5. Toggle the “Display current activity as status message” option.
   
   

That’s how you display your activity as a status on the Discord mobile app. When using the app on your phone, you can only display your activity as a status when you’re attending a public stage.

On your computer:

1. Launch the Discord desktop app or visit their web client and sign in to your account.
2. Click the gear icon on the bottom left part of the app to open your User Settings.
   
   
3. Scroll down the sidebar and select “Activity Privacy” under the Activity Settings section.
   
   
4. Enable the “Display current activity as a status message” under the Activity Status section.
   
   

After enabling your activity status on the app, activities with the Rich Presence feature will also show up as your status aside from the games you play.

To wrap it all up

Now that you know how to display your activity status on Discord, you can now show the game you’re currently playing or the activity that you’re doing on your profile. Please note that if the app can’t detect the game you’re playing, it won’t show up as a status on your account.
