Hi there @cool11 

Thanks for reaching out and welcome aboard to the Community! To make a playlist private, just use the three dots next to it or right click it and then select "Remove from Profile", as described here. If you don't see this option, then the playlist isn't public.

Hope this clears things up.

It would have been more intuitive if the wording had been the same as in the app...

Hey how do I make a playlist private using the web player/web browser? My device is a windows pc. thanks

Hey there @Legendzz1,

Thanks for the question!

You can remove (and add) playlists from your profile directly through the Web Player. Just right-click on the playlist and choose Remove from profile.

However, the feature to make the playlist private is only available on the app. If you have the Spotify app installed on a mobile device or a computer, just follow the steps under Make playlists public or private on this page.

We hope this helps! 

Cheers.

I made a public playlist in browser but it is not showing up in the profile when I search it from my friends account.

Hey @AshNjat, 

Thanks for getting in touch about this and welcome to the Community! 

Just to confirm, have you followed the steps @Maria sent previously? 

If so and it doesn't work, would you mind trying from a different device or the desktop app to see if the same happens? 

We'll be on the lookout.

im using a Chromebook, and I use the Spotify web player (not downloaded). when I click the three dots, it doesn't show the "make private" option. I don't want to remove it from my profile, I just want it to only be me seeing it.

Hey @leslerr,

Welcome to the Spotify Community!

The option isn't available on the Web Player at this time, I'm afraid, so you'll need the app for this. If you own a 2018 or later model, you can install the Android app from the Google Play Store or use the mobile app instead.

Take care 💚
