Why is Discord displaying what I’m playing when I have no connections?

Why is Discord displaying what I’m playing when I have no connections? - Macbook Pro Beside Blue Wireless Headphones

I connected Discord to my Xbox Live account and I played a game. I stopped playing, later disconnected my Xbox Live account from Discord, and it still says I’m playing the game I was playing even though I wasn’t even on the Xbox. It said I was playing a certain game for 22 hours, and I can’t turn it off. I have the Discord mobile app, and my friend took it off. Later I went back on that game and the same thing happened. How do I fix this?



Best Answer

You can turn off this display setting in the Discord client:

User settings > Games > untick Display Currently running game as a status message

This is off by default until you connect your Discord account to Xbox/etc. After that it will display what it thinks you're playing.

This is a possible duplicate question, see this post.
