Hiding your followers

The option to hide your followers from people who click on your profile similar to TikTok as they can see how many followers you have but they can’t click to see who’s following you and who you are following.

Hey @Baam1500,

Thanks for reaching out! Hope you don't mind us moving your post as it fits better here.

You should be able to change what's being publicly displayed on your profile directly via the app settings. The amount of followers won't be displayed, however, while this settings is togged off.

To check your current settings, and to change if followers should be visible on your profile, just follow these steps on the mobile app:

Head over to Settings.
Select Privacy & Social.
Toggle Followers and following off.

The steps are similar on the desktop app: head over to Settings > Social > Show my follower and following lists on my public profile.

Hope this helps! Cheers 🙂

Hey @Ezmanuela,

Thanks for joining the thread.

Spotify's in-app messages don't offer a separate option to password-protect or encrypt these messages. You could, however, post an idea on the forum about this 🙂 ! Just make sure to take a look at the Idea Exchange guidelines first.

Aside from this, for the time being, if you genuinely want more privacy over the Spotify social interactions, the current approach here would be making your profile private or removing followers as mentioned by @Maria above.

Hope this clears things up! We're here for you if there's anything else.
