The Niantic Profile web portal opens up the ability to manage your game information on a game-by-game basis. With new Visibility Settings, you can specify which groups see the games you play, whether that's everyone, friends, or only yourself.

 

Visibility Settings by Group

  • Everyone: The game and all associated game information (in-game name, level, faction, and recent activity) on the game profile are publicly visible on your profile.
  • Friends: The game and all associated game information (in-game name, level, faction, and recent activity) on the game profile are only visible to your Niantic friends.
  • Only Me: The game and all associated game information (in-game name, level, faction, and recent activity) on the game profile are only visible to you.

Note: Your Visibility Settings for a game are essential for allowing Friends to identify you on their Friends List. When a game is hidden, your Niantic Friend will not be able to search you by your in-game name for that game.
