How to spoiler images and link embeds on Discord mobile
Follow these steps to successfully spoiler images and links on your mobile device.
- Tap the + symbol next to the text box. This will allow you to upload a photo to the Discord chat you’re in.
- Select a photo to send. Tap or long-press the photo to select it.
- Tap the photo preview above the message box. Several options will appear in the pop-up below the image.
- Check the Mark as spoiler box. It’s located between the Remix and Remove file options. You may need to scroll slightly to see this option.
- Tap outside the menu or swipe down to close it. The photo will now be grayed out with a white eye symbol over it, indicating it has been spoilered.
- If sending multiple images, remember to mark each one as a spoiler individually.
- Tap the blue send button. Your message with the image will now have the spoiler filter over it.
Spoiling a link embed
- Type || in the text box. This will prepare the link for the spoiler tag.
- Paste the link after the ||.
- Type || again. The message will look like ||[link url]|| and highlight in gray, indicating it will be spoilered.
- Send the link. It will be spoiled with a black spoiler filter.
- Alternatively, surround the link with < and > to remove the preview embed. Your link should look like <[link url]> before sending it.
Pro tip: Always double-check your selected images and links before sending to ensure they are accurately spoilered.
By following these steps, you can easily share images and links while maintaining control over what is visible to other users in a Discord server. Spoiling sensitive content is a considerate action that helps to ensure discussions remain respectful and enjoyable for everyone involved. Embracing these features can enhance your communication and contribute to a better community experience on Discord.
