    How can I stop the Xbox app from sharing my current activity?


    Xbox App on my Windows 10 computer literally shows friends and maybe everyone my current activity, like what game I am playing, even if that game is not related to Xbox... How can I stop that without having to stop the Xbox App background process? Thanks
    in advance.

    :)

  4. How can I stop the Xbox app from sharing my current activity?

    Hey Lspasus,

    Currently, there is no way to appear online but not show an activity. Note that games that appear in the "My Games" section on the Xbox app will be listed. I believe the final answer is that you'd need to appear offline. You can change that and other privacy
    settings related to that in the following menu:

    Go to the Settings menu > Account > Privacy & Online Safety > View details & customize. Check it out and see if any of those filters apply to anything you want.

    Thanks,

    Activity Feed Not Showing My Screenshots or Clips.

    Hey there Weesil xD and SkyeGaming13,

    To clarify, how are you attempting to share these screenshots and game clips? Can you please walk me through how you're sharing these items? They seem to be working on this end when using these steps.

    1. Open the "Community" tab on the console to view the Activity feed.
    2. Select a friend's activity by pressing "A".
    3. Scroll and highlight the Share button.
    4. Press "A" on the share button to open the sharing menu and press "A" on "Activity feed"
    5. Select "Share this" to share to the Activity feed.
    Can you verify that these are the steps that you're using to share, or if you see any error messages in the process?

    Weesil xD,

    Are you currently an Xbox Live Gold Subscriber or are you sharing Gold with another account on your console?

    Let us know!

    My activity feed stopped working on both Xbox One console and smartglass app

    My activity feed stopped working on both Xbox One console and smartglass app. If I post something, it never shows up and my friends can't see any of my activity. On the smartglass app, my profile appears empty too. My activity feed is blank, when I try to
    post something it never shows up. The recent activity and achievements sections are also empty. How can this be? I already tried power cycling my console several times, but that didn't fix the issue. The problem doesn't reside in my

    Feed Activity issue

    I am having this issue too. I am in the preview programme. My issue was from 26 days ago. This is what is my issue in a bit if detail.

    1. Cannot make a Post in the Activity Feed, but i CAN reply to other friends posts..

    2. Cannot share a video to the Activity feed, but i Am able to on twitter fine.

    3. The 'last 30 days' achievement leaderboard activity thread has me as 0, even though i have earned 350 or so achiev' points this week alone.

    4. Achievements earned not sharing to the activity feed.

    5. All of the above through the SmartGlass App..

    Pleaee note that i have tried EVERYTHING from the powere re-set, to removing/reinstalling my profile from my XB1. I have tried my daughters profile on my XB1, and the activity feed works fine. So, this seems to be an issue with the 'SHARE' feature to my
    Gamertag/profile, and is an Xbox live problem as i can share to twitter..

    After trying to get help via Xbox support on twitter, they pointed me here.

    Please help.
