Discord won’t show my Xbox live status

Been having the same issue for about a month now.

So apparently this has been an known issue for literally YEARS. I’ve found several years old post about the same problem. Without Discord fixing it, so don’t expect them to do anything about this bug. Ever.

Here is what worked for me. I had to unlink my Discord account from the Xbox console and Discord app and link it again through the Discord app.
1. On your Xbox go to My games and apps, Settings, Linked social accounts, Unlink your Discord. Now head to your Discord app on Mobile or PC, User settings, connections, and disconnect your Xbox Live account from it. Reconnect your Xbox Live account again through the Discord app.
2. Go to My games and apps, Settings, Account, Privacy & online safety, Xbox Live privacy, and set it to Adult defaults. Now, hop on a game on your Xbox, check your Discord app, and see if your Xbox Live status is running.
If you want to change some privacy settings you can, but keep in mind you must keep the "Others can see if you're online" setting set to "Everybody" if you change it to "Friends" or "Block". You won't get the Xbox Live status setting and/or Xbox will give you a popup screen message saying "Unlink your Discord account?" which you can press the B button and your Discord account will still be linked, but your status won't show up on the Discord app
Keep in mind, if you play a different game on your Xbox, your status will not update for a few moments to a minute in the Discord app
Here is a picture to show it worked for me. I hope it helped you too!

I’ve been having this issue for months and I can’t find any fixes whatsoever. Unlinking account, reinstalling Discord, changing game activity preferences, clearing cache... none of these actually works!
I’m still waiting for an official statement from Discord about this annoying issue, but I’m starting to think we’ll be waiting forever.5 -
Oh my, last night I attempted to unlinked from Discord on my Xbox in System Settings -> Account -> Linked Social accounts, and the UI was buggy with unlinking and I don’t know if that truly unlinked, but then I went back on my Discord iOS app and disconnected from Xbox Live connection. Went back to my Xbox and it showed it unlinked, then went into Discord iOS app again then relinked Xbox Live again by logging into my Microsoft account, then the app showed connected. I refreshed the Xbox Settings screen and it showed it as linked. The status wasn’t working immediately after changed it, although I didn’t quit and restart my game I was playing. But right now this morning, I launched a new game and Discord shows my status again! I’ll monitor to see if it continues to show status for the next few days. My Xbox OS version is 10.0.19041.1825, rs_xbox_release_2004.200325-0000.
Hopefully this helps someone, and the Xbox status remains visible!

Same problem here. My status used to work and now all of a sudden it doesn't. I've tried every thing to fix it.

It could be an Xbox thing...if people know what you’re doing in discord they’re more prone to joining a discord chat vs an Xbox one...or maybe I’m just a high conspiracy theorist. 🧐 Either way I’m having the same problem...

Same here, hopefully it will be sorted in the future

I'm extremely frustrated to see how many frustrated people have had to deal with this for so long, when I am frustrated from having to deal with it for only a few months. Ive never gotten my status to show ONCE, even with all these in thread suggestions. Ive tried them all.
It's pretty obvious that we all need to be submitting tickets to discord, to put on the pressure and make it clear that this is a feature that is very important to it's users and not something that can be put causally aside for later.
This feature is important for prompting discussion in servers, and finding people to play with online.

Others can see if you're online > Everybody
Others can see your game and app history > Everybody
Others can see your Xbox profile details > EverybodyI can confirm changing the above settings worked instantly for me.
Discord was already linked to my Xbox account. Simply changing the above Xbox Privacy settings instantly showed me in game on Discord.3 -
PLEASE READ THIS MAY HELP.
discord may not be the problem, if you have custom settings in your Xbox that may be the issue. (Settings > Account > Privacy & Online Safty > Xbox Privacy) If you have anything that blocks allowing other sites from seeing your Xbox status (You can find it under Online status & History, Sharing outside of Xbox) you need to Re-Enable anything that blocks from Xbox sharing out of its system ie. Discord. I hope this works, it worked for me.

The fix is to change your Xbox game activity to everyone in privacy settings

Hey guys I recently noticed that this has been a trendy topic for many and I did some research and found a way to fix this! You have to watch this YouTube video and it will explain it all! Unlink your account from discord (Xbox) then go to Xbox settings and it’s all in your privacy and Online safety section. You have to allow all your sharing and set it to everybody. Here’s the steps:
unlink Xbox account from discord
settings>Privacy and online safety>Xbox privacy
view details and customize>online status & history> set everything in there to everybody
then go to> sharing outside of Xbox and click allow and everybody and done!
Once you do link your Xbox account back to discord in discord settings section and enjoy’ :)
disclaimer: YOU DO NOT HAVE TO SIGN IN TO DISCORD ON YOUR XBOX FOR THIS TO WORK. Just simply sign into Xbox account inside the discord settings rather than vice versa!
here’s the video instruction on how to fix this if you don’t want to read my instructions. I fixed mine just yesterday! :)

OMG! Thank you so much xARTEF3KTx The guy above me figured it out!!! ⬆️⬆️⬆️ It worked! Wow thank you thank you thank you so much that video was genius! :)
Read the comment above mine if you want a permanent fix! :D
Here’s the link to the video again’

Same here, no status on any platform or device.

Experiencing the same issue. I’m on the Delta Xbox Insider ring if that helps and it seemed that a couple weeks ago some of my Xbox settings got reset or messed up, after from what I assume, an update. Since then I noticed my Xbox status doesn’t show up in discord. But I don’t actually know when it stopped working but it’s been somewhat recently. I tried unlinking and reconnecting to no avail. Hopefully this gets resolved soon.

This is still an issue.
I have only got my discord to display my xbox status twice out of like 50+ times of playing Red Dead 2. I unlink/relink account, mess with privacy settings, launch games from xbox app, etc and nothing seems to fix it. Nothing more i can do on my end.2 -
I recently realized what TheWatcher mentioned above. The Xbox Live status seems to be hours behind what I do on my Xbox. I played a game, quit, and still, hours later Discord displayed my status as if I was in that game. This happened several times over the weekend with basically any title I played. It's supposed to be real-time like with Steam and Spotify, but it's delayed by several hours and thus it's currently completely unusable.

so apparently, this bug was fixed like a day or two ago, but i'm still having issues with it displaying the xbox live status. i've tried nearly everything, anyone willing to offer me some help? :(

Who would’ve guessed - I'mtrynabehelpful‘s post is actually very helpful. I’ve been having problems with my discord status not displaying on Xbox for well over a year now - but their instructions seemt to have fixed my problem. Perhaps you all should try the same. Thank you, I'mtrynabehelpful !

I don't know if people are still here, but the problem is your privacy settings on your Xbox account. These are the things you need to change:
Others can see if you're online > Everybody
Others can see your game and app history > Everybody
Others can see your Xbox profile details > Everybody
Now open your game on Xbox and it should work if you have linked them!2 -
Ok, you clearly didn’t read the last couple comments (1 of them being mine) which was in response to the comment above mine. Both mine and his are right above yours which is the 2nd and 3rd comments. They have the answer on how to fix this. Removing your discord status won’t do anything bc when Xbox live displays status on discord, it doesn’t clog or take over the whole status on discord. Long story short, you can have both ah the same time. Discord customer status and your Xbox live game play status right besides it!!!

Same thing here!

Same issue. Tried relinking the accounts, still no dice.

My discord account has my xbox linked to it and for some reason its saying i'm playing a game on xbox even tho my xbox is turned off

This happened to me last year, and I was able to get status to show again via some unremembered sequence of disconnecting/unlinking/relinking/etc accounts. However, status remained showing only for a few days before forever disappearing again... my occasional attempts to restore since by repeat previous activities have failed. I think we'll just have to be tilted about this for a few more years as there is zero priority to fix this, but I'll try things again every few weeks. Even in the 17000+ member Microsoft Community server, none seem to have their Xbox status showing so yeah... gg.

I have the same Problem with the Samsung Game Launcher ._.

I have also been having the same issue, over the past few months XBL status was unreliable but showed eventually, however for a couple of weeks now it's simply refused to show.
I contacted Discord support around a week ago and was told they are aware of the issue but could not provide an ETA on a fix.
So I imagine this feature will remain broken for a long time yet.

Many of ppl troubling this issue. Discord also know this issue long time.
Maybe It's not important to discord staffs.

Hey everyone, this is what Discord Support told me about this issue. I think it clarifies that this is a known bug and will be fixed sometime in the future, but at the moment no one knows when.
"I'm sorry to hear that Discord isn't showing your Xbox playing status. Just to give you a heads up, this issue with Disord not displaying the Xbox playing status is currently a known issue that is on our team's radar. I want to reassure you that our team is on the case and working on a fix, however, I sadly don't have an ETA for when a solution will be available."
So there we are. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.
