Audio Files on Discord
Discord was once a gamers’ world. But it has turned into a household as more people who aren’t gamers or developers get to use it to connect with others.
Its popularity has grown because more people view it as a safe and reliable communication platform. More people choose Discord as their go-to messaging platform to connect with friends, family, or colleagues.
Discord allows users to interact with other users via chat or voice option.
You can share files like voice recordings or documents as you talk with friends. You can share them via channels or private inboxes.
But first, you’ll need to grant Discord permission to access your storage before uploading any audio file to a Discord channel or a friend’s inbox.
