About this app

Discord is where you can make a home for your communities and friends. Where you can stay close and have fun over text, voice, and video chat. Whether you’re part of a school club, a gaming group, a worldwide art community, or just a handful of friends who want to spend time together, Discord makes it easy to talk every day, and hang out more often.

Ratings and reviews

I don't know if it's related to the newest update, but this app cannot run in the background on mobile. If I'm in a voice channel, I cannot navigate away from the app or even let my screen lock. As soon as I do, all sound from the channel stops until I reopen the app and channel. The output device doesn't matter, neither does reinstalling. There's no setting to fix. It simply doesn't run in the background (the way something like Messenger or Spotify can).

This app could be SO much better. I mean, it's kind of like the desktop, but you constantly have to close the app in the background and reopen it to get it to work correctly. More than half the time, it fails to load the UI correctly and cuts off almost the entire bottom half of the screen. You can see where stuff was, but no text. Many admin functions are missing from PC version.Disappointing. EDIT: reinstall worked for awhile, but probably just was the same as clearing cache. Same issues again

have to close and reopen the app sometimes even three times in a row just to get it to actually load anything instead of just being stuck "connecting", no matter what wifi or connection I'm on. it will randomly decide to block out the lower half of my channels list which also requires a close and reopen. it will also mess up image previews when this happens, which is often. this has been an issue for as long as I can remember and has never been addressed. everyone I know on android says the same
