So that is how to mark images as spoilers on Discord on the computer app. Most of the users know about it, but when they’re using the mobile app, either on iOS or Android.
They don’t know how to mark images as spoilers on the mobile app. So now let’s see how to spoiler an image on Discord Mobile iOS & Android App.
Steps to Mark Images as Spoiler on Discord Mobile iOS & Android
So if you prefer using Discord on your Mobile app, then you might be getting some difficulties marking images as spoiler attachments. This is because there is no option to mark an image as a spoiler while uploading the image as in the Desktop app.
But there are a few things to note here, if you sharing an image on Discord from your mobile for the first time, Discord will ask you for permission to access your local storage, simply click on the Grant Permission button.
Once, you have granted the storage permission to Discord, simply follow the below step-by-step tutorial to mark images as spoilers on Discord using the mobile app.
1: Open the image which you want to share as a spoiler in your Gallery or File Manager.
2: Simply, use the rename feature to rename the image as “SPOILER_yourtext”. (You can write anything in place of ‘yourtext’, but the image name should start with “SPOILER_”.
3: Rename & save the image. Now click on the share button & choose Discord.
4: The Discord sharing interface will appear, choose your desired server and text channel.
5: Once you select the server, simply hit the send button.
That is it, the image will get marked as a spoiler. If you want to recheck whether the image is marked as a spoiler or not, you can use another account and go into the server to check if the image is blurred out or not.
Also, in the new Discord version, a watermark also appears on the blurred image saying “SPOILER”. So you can easily verify whether your image is successfully marked as a spoiler or not.
The image will appear blurry in the first place and then when you tap on it, it will get visible to you. So none of the users will be able to view the image directly when you share it in the chat.
Conclusion
Discord Spoiler Image is a really unique and awesome feature that you can use to share an image with a warning and a notification as well so it’s the user’s choice whether they want to view the picture or not.
If they want to see it, they can simply tap on the picture and it gets visible to them. But one important thing here is that if you quit the Discord app and come again, then again you will get to see the image as blurred or marked as a “SPOILER”.
So we have now shared all the methods with you. As you know there is a dedicated option for marking media files as spoilers on the Discord desktop version, but it is not available on the mobile app.
If you are using iOS, then probably you can tap & hold on to the picture and the option should be visible to you. But in case, you find no such option, the trick here is to rename the image file with “SPOILER_”.
