How to hide the Friend Activity tab on Spotify

On the desktop Spotify application interface, there is an item called 'Friend Activity' that is available by default.

As the name suggests, this is the place to display all information related to your friends' music activity on Spotify. If you are less concerned about this, you can set the Friend Activity tab to hide to get a more optimal display space. Find out how to do it right here.

(Note: As mentioned, Spotify only shows the Friend Activity tab in the desktop app, so you only have to do this on your PC).

Hide the Friend Activity tab using the option in the menu bar

The quickest way for you to hide the tab showing your friends' activity information from your view is to use an option available in the Spotify menu bar.

If you're using a Windows PC, in the top left corner of the Spotify window, click the three dots.
