There are many reasons why you might need to disconnect someone from a Discord call. Maybe they’re annoying, or maybe they’re not actually present and are making inappropriate comments. You can even do it on accident if you forget what’s going on while navigating your phone.
While this technique is compatible with much of the same technology, the specifics will vary between Android devices and iPhones. We’re going to cover all the particulars of how to disconnect someone from a Discord call and get back to your business.
Disconnecting an iPhone from a Discord call
There is, unfortunately, no way to disconnect an iPhone from a Discord call using any of the native technology that’s on the device. The best way to do it is by phoning or FaceTiming yourself and then disconnecting. So, if you have an iPhone and need to disconnect someone else from their own phone, you’ll have to use this method.
Ensure they are in a chat on their iPhone first. If they’re not, go ahead and restart the app itself. While it’s not very practical to do this if someone’s on your phone without your permission, if you’re one of the people who just need to disconnect someone then this method will work for Discord.
After restarting the Discord app and checking in with whoever is causing you trouble, send yourself a notification from the phone itself. The Phone icon can be clicked after you receive the notification to disconnect.
You’ll be prompted to restart the app again, so do it and when you get back, you should see your friend in a different list. If they’re still on that list, then there’s something wrong with their phone or account. If they aren’t there, then they’ve disconnected themselves from your Discord call without meaning to. After this point, just exit the app and go about your day.
If this method doesn’t work for you, then give this one a try and you should be able to continue your chat!
Disconnecting an Android phone from a Discord call
Like the iPhone, there is no built-in support for Android that will let you disconnect someone from your call. You’ll have to use this method instead. While it does require a bit of technical know-how, you can do it without being able to drive a car, so it’s not too difficult.
Install a voice-over-IP app from the Google Play Store first. The one that formally worked best for this is called RCS Droid, but it’s been discontinued so there are probably some better alternatives out there. If you know of any apps that are still being actively developed and can successfully do this, please let us know in the comments!
Join a call by connecting the app with your Discord account. As a result, you can begin looking for an option to disconnect someone from the system. Begin by going to the app’s settings and tapping on Event Hooks. Here, you’ll see a number of options that will let you do different things when certain events happen. Look for the option that says Disconnect and enable it.
Now, return to your Discord call and wait until the person says their goodbyes or disconnects without meaning to. You’ll see the option on your screen go from grayed out to green.
Discord can now be logged out of using the app.
How to Disconnect Someone From Discord Call
If you’re already in the middle of a call with someone and want to try and disconnect them, there are two ways to do this.
1) Hit the “Mute” button. You can find this by tapping the speaker icon at the top of your Discord app; it’ll turn grey if it’s active.
2) Hit the “Cancel” button. This one is a bit harder to find – it’s located in the bottom-left corner of your chat interface and it’ll disappear if you’re muted.
Are Discord Calls Free?
Yes, Discord calls are free and don’t require any payment or subscription to use. Voice or video calls can be made with other Discord users without any charges. However, there may be some data or usage charges from your internet service provider for using the internet for calls, depending on your data plan.

What To Do If A Discord Call Won’t End?
If a Discord call won’t end, there are a few things you can try:
- Force Quit the Discord app: On Windows, press “Ctrl + Alt + Delete” and then “Task Manager.” Select Discord from the list and then choose “End Task.” On Mac, press “Command + Option + Esc” and then find the Discord app in the list and force quit it.
- Restart the Discord app: Close the Discord app and then restart it. If the call persists, this should resolve it.
- Check your internet connection: Ensure a stable connection and that there are no connectivity issues. Discord calls require a stable internet connection to function properly.
- Contact Discord Support: If the issue persists, try to contact Discord support for assistance. They will be able to provide further guidance and resolve the issue.
If you are the host of the call, and none of the above steps work, you can also try ending the call from the Discord server itself by clicking the “Leave Voice Channel” button in the server’s voice channel.
