You can make your Spotify playlist private by clicking the three dots on the playlist.
To make the change, select "Make Private" from the three-dot menu.
You can also create a private listening session if you'd prefer not to share activity with your Spotify friends.
While Spotify is often used for sharing playlists with friends, there may be some playlists or listening behaviors that you want to keep private. That's where Spotify's Make Private option comes in handy.
Once you make a Spotify playlist private, your followers will no longer be able to view the playlist, and it won't appear in any searches.
You can make a Spotify playlist private in both the desktop app for Mac and PC as well as the mobile app for iPhone and Android.
Alternatively, you can set up a private listening session so that your friends won't be able to see what you're listening to during that time.
Here's how to make a playlist private, or start a private listening session.
