I followed all the steps in the docs:

  1. Called the API:

    SteamFriends()->SetRichPresence("steam_display", "#Status");

  2. Uploaded richpresence to partner.steamgames.com (based on the example steam_sdk\steamworksexample\richpresenceloc.vdf)

"lang" { "Language" "english" "Tokens" { "#Status" "360 no scoping" } }
  1. Hit the Publish button (text-only mode) and confirmed.

But my profile page still only says "Currently In-Game" and lists the name of my game without more details. I even tried restarting Steam.

I confirmed that I have no errors and my status shows on the tester site: https://steamcommunity.com/dev/testrichpresence

Turns out Rich Presence doesn't show on profile pages -- only Friends and Chat. (So you can't see it at all in the Steam mobile app.) I noticed all the examples in this Valve tutorial video look like Chat.

You'll only see "Currently In-Game" in most parts of the Steam client, but if you open Friends > View Friends List in the Steam desktop client then you can see your Rich Presence and that of your friends. You also see it on the "Friends Who Play" section on a game page (in both desktop and Big Picture modes).
