Discord App Not Working on iPhone? 5 Fixes to Get it Running

Update Discord App

• 💡 Update the Discord app by going to the App Store, searching for Discord, and tapping 'Update' if available, even if it shows 'Open'.

Review App Permissions

• ⚙️ Navigate to Settings > Apps > Discord to check and enable necessary permissions like Photos, Camera, and Microphone.
• 📶 Ensure Background App Refresh and Mobile Data are enabled for proper functioning.

Restart Your iPhone

• 📱 Press and hold the power button with a volume button, then slide to power off.
• ⏳ Wait 10-15 seconds before pressing and holding the power button to restart.

Reinstall Discord App

• ⚠️ Before uninstalling, ensure you can access your Discord account by checking saved passwords.
• 🗑️ To uninstall, press and hold the app icon, select 'Remove App', then 'Delete App'. Re-download from the App Store.

Free Up iPhone Storage

• 💾 Go to Settings > iPhone Storage to check available space; insufficient space (around 200MB) can cause app issues.
• 🧹 Options include uninstalling apps or offloading apps (which keeps data but reduces app size).
• 📸 To free up space, delete unneeded photos and videos from your Photos app, including emptying the 'Recently Deleted' folder.

Check Discord Servers

• ⚠️ If none of the above steps work, the issue might be with Discord servers being down or a pending app update.
• ⏳ Check the App Store for updates or wait for server issues to be resolved.
