Find Your Stuff

You have lots of conversations going on at once. We separated the Messages and Servers tabs to better organize these conversations. So now you can quickly find your DMs in one place and server chats in another.

Find Your Stuff

We breathed some new life into our search feature to let you easily find people, media, links, and all of your past DMs in a flash.

Find Your Stuff

Quickly browse a channel or G/DM to see every member, shared media, links, pins, and more from a single location.

Find Your Stuff

Get the action without the distraction. We made notifications actionable and they also auto-clear as you read them (like magic).

Find Your Stuff

Why waste time scrolling through every setting to find what you’re looking for when you could simply type in the new search bar instead? Now you can waste time in other places.

No more scrolling through every setting (unless that’s your thing) because now you can just use the new search bar instead!

CUSTOMIZE IT UP

Hold onto your hats, this might be our most requested Discord update. We made dark theme even darker and added the new Midnight theme, which is pure black and saves battery on OLED compatible devices while going easy on your eyes.

STAY CONNECTED WITH FRIENDS

We updated the UI and interactions on voice and video calls to make the space more cozy for you and your friends.

Ready to hang out? See what your friends are up to in real time and hop in to join them. Maybe they're listening to music, playing a game, or just chilling in a voice channel.

Ever get tired of looking for your G/DM so you just made it all over again? About that…we fixed it!. We made it easier to search and select friends to add to a G/DM and added a preview if you already have an existing chat with a friend you selected.

So FRESH,
SO CLEAN,
SO MOBILE

New

We added swipe-to-reply, refreshed our icons, and rounded a few edges to make the Discord mobile app look and feel more intuitive!

Wumpus

Even more messaging

Quickly turn images into memes by drawing, adding text, or throwing on some stickers or emoji. Now available on all mobile devices. Maybe you too will be a famous meme one day.

Say more with voice messages. If you have too many thoughts to type out, or your joke just won’t land the same over text, we get it. Just tap, hold to record, and release to send a voice message in the updated Discord mobile app.

Select even more pics/videos at once, even the high-quality ones (up to 25 MB), and upload away. Uploaded content will show up in a sweet grid where you can swipe between uploads while still being able to see your message.

Earlier This Year

So Fast, So Smooth

We’ve been working hard this year to increase the app’s launch speed, load messages quicker, and make the app way more stable (AKA, down with the crashes).

Faster Launch Time

Vroom, Discord got faster. We reduced app open time by 55% on Android, 43% on iOS this year. We don’t know how this is going to end without us inventing time travel.

Improved Stability

We’ve made the app more reliable! *Waits for applause.* We fixed several issues that were causing the app to crash. In fact, we cut our crash rate in half this year for Android users. PROGRESS!!!

Message Caching

Your device will store up to 700 recent messages in channels/DMs so that the app opens faster and conversations are available to you even when you’re offline or on slow internet. Finally, you can revisit your Wumpus fanfic offline.

Background Refresh

We now sync new messages in the background so you’re up to date with your friends’ latest conversations when you open the Discord app.
