By default, anyone on Xsporty can open your profile — that's how organizers check your level and teammates find you again. If you'd rather approve who sees more, make your profile private.
Make your profile private
- Open your profile, tap the gear icon, then Edit Profile.
- Under Account Information, turn on Private Profile.
- Tap Save.
You can also choose this when you create your account.
What changes
- Players who want to follow you see Request instead of Follow, and you get a request in your notification inbox to Accept or Decline. When you accept, the app offers you a Follow Back.
- Only the followers you accept can see your About tab — bio, sports, profile information — and your Media tab. Everyone else sees "This profile is private".
- In Discover, your sport, level, age and availability only match other players' filters if they follow you.
What stays visible to everyone
- Your name, photo, games played, followers and following counts.
- Your Overview: games, record, streak, MVPs, awards, sports and teammates.
- Your Groups, including private ones.
- The games you join — anyone who opens a game can see who's in.
- Your ratings, as averages only and only after three reviews. Individual reviews are never shown to other players.
Followers
Open your followers list from your profile to Remove Follower — they'd have to request again — or unfollow someone from your following list. Blocking a player unfollows you from each other. See Block and report a player.
Privacy Controls
Open your profile, tap the gear icon, then Privacy Controls for an overview of what Xsporty collects — profile, location, activity and communication data — and the Usage Analytics switch for anonymous usage data. It's also where you can delete your account. Your email and device tokens are private to you; other players never see your email. Our Privacy Policy has the details, and you can delete your account at any time.
Frequently asked questions
Can I hide my stats?
No. Your Overview is visible to anyone who opens your profile. A private profile hides About and Media from non-followers.
Does a private profile stop organizers from seeing my level?
Yes, unless they follow you. Organizers rely on profiles to approve players, so a private profile can mean more declined requests.
Can I stop someone from seeing me entirely?
Blocking stops a player from following or messaging you. Your profile and games stay visible. If someone makes you feel unsafe, report them.
