What are Voice Messages in Discord?
Voice messages in Discord are short audio recordings that you can send in real time with your phone instead of texting or calling someone.
They are basically short audio clips that you can record anytime and then send to your friends or channels.
All you’re doing here is turning on your microphone and talking to your phone instead of messaging around the traditional way. Now, your friend can tap on it and hear what you’re saying.
So, there is no need to type on your keyboard and waste time. This is, in fact, a faster way of communication if the situation allows.
How Long can a Voice Message be on Discord?
A voice Message can be a maximum of 20 minutes long on Discord. You cannot record a voice message more than that in a single sitting.
Generally, for a normal conversation, 20 minutes length is more than enough. If you want to send longer audio, you should share the files after recording on your device or directly audio call that person.
Remember, you can only send voice messages via a Mobile Phone. But you can listen to it using any device.
Likewise, this feature is currently available on direct messages, group DM, and servers with less than two hundred members.
