So, you’ve been hacked. Because someone discovered one of your passwords or because there was a security breach, you are required to change all of your login information at this time. If Discord is your major method of communication, there is likely a lot of content that you do not want to be shared with others. You are fortunate in that Discord allows you to alter your password at any moment.

Here is how to change your password for Discord if you are using the desktop programme on a Mac or PC, or the mobile version on an iPhone or Android device.

How to Change your Discord Password on Desktop

1. Fire up the Discord client application on both your Mac and your individual computer. A tiny gear icon will appear in the bottom-left corner of your screen, just next to the picture you select to use as your profile picture. You need only to click on it.

2. Go to the tab labelled “My Account,” and once you’re there, click the “Edit” button that’s located on the blue button bar that appears in that tab.

3. From the menu, select the option to “Change password.” When this is done, a fresh text field that is labelled “New Password” will become available to the user.

4. In the box labelled “Current Password,” input the password that you are now using, and then move on to the field labelled “New Password,” where you should enter the new password that you want to use.

5. Choose the “Save” option from the menu.

How to Change Your Discord Password on Mobile

1. Launch the Discord app on your iPhone or Android smartphone, and then tap the three horizontal lines that can be seen in the top-left corner of the screen. This will open the menu that is situated on the sidebar to the left.

2. In the bottom-right corner of this page, you will either see your profile photo (seen on an iPhone) or a gear icon. Depending on which option you choose, your profile photo will be displayed on an iPhone (on Android). The settings menu can be accessed by tapping it once it has been brought up.

3. When the drop-down menu opens, select “Account” from the list of available options.

4. Select the “Change Password” option from the drop-down menu.

5. You will now be required to enter both your current password as well as the new password that you would want to use at this time. After you have finished filling out each of the fields, click the “Save” button that is located in the top right corner of the screen. There is a possibility that you will additionally be required to press the “Done” button that is located on the keypad of your phone.

Be aware that if you change your password, you will be logged out of all other Discord sessions that you are currently connected into as soon as the change takes effect. This is something that you should keep in mind before making any changes to your password. When you change your password on your desktop computer, you will be automatically logged out of the mobile app on your mobile device, and vice versa.
