A Chat App Par Excellence
Chat apps have always been popular as they provide people the chance to connect with one another privately and in groups. Multiple apps try different layouts and offer different features in order to stand apart. WhatsApp has become the most popular chatting app between friends who know each other. However, this hasn't stopped the growth of other apps that can go beyond the regular features that Whatsapp has to offer. Discord is one of the largest chat apps on the Google Play Store and its diverse range of features helps it stand out from other chat apps.
Discord is a chat messaging platform that offers a variety of features in order to engage a variety of audiences. The app has a very simple sign up process with the possibility of signing up with Gmail and Facebook both possible. Once you have signed up, you can start using the app and all its features with relative ease.
The app's clean interface is a joy for the eyes with the easy-on-the-eye theme extremely well designed. The app has three main tabs namely Direct Messages, Friends and User Settings. The Direct Messages Section is the homepage of the app and this is where you will find all your conversations and chats with your friends. The 'Friends' section is where you will see your entire friend list on Discord and this is also the section where you get the option of inviting new friends. The User Settings section is to customize your account and setup your app settings on your phone.
Discord allows you to create your own server with its own invitation code. This allows you to create a private group where you can invite other friends and where you can do a variety of different activities. From a friend sharing a screen and other friends commenting and having a blast to a friend streaming their game and other friends watching in awe, there are a lot of cool things that can go on in a server. You can chat, call and share videos on the server too. Apart from these uses, the servers are usually used to create game groups where a group of friends can chat around on audio or text and have some great time together. The game can run elsewhere while discord continues to easily keep you connected with your friends. Apart from making your own server, you can join other servers too with a simple invitation code.
Apart from the chats in servers, you can create your own channels in order to divide the conversations into different groups that you can easily view and jump into as per your mood. There is also the option of Direct Message if you want to talk privately with a friend with nobody else joining in on the chat. The server chats, the channels and the DMs are all searchable easily through the search bar at the top of the screen.
Adding friends on Discord is also a fun experience. There are multiple ways to add a friend on discord. Your friend needs to also be on the app for starters. You can add your friend through the username and tag assigned to each user by Discord. You can also provide your own username and tag to your friend and the friend can then add you. The other option is a nearby scan where the app searches for other Discord users in the vicinity. If you want to add multiple friends in one go and have your friends in a close proximity, this feature will serve you best.
