Adding Favorite GIFs on Discord Mobile

How to Favorite GIFs on Discord Mobile

Navigate to a channel in the Discord app. Quick tip: if you want to favorite a GIF but don't want to send it in any public servers you're in, create a personal server with yourself as the only member. You can use this server to favorite GIFs, keep notes, or test things out. You can also do this in a DM with a friend, if you prefer. Some servers may have a spam or testing channel for these purposes. If you're on a server that has a channel like this, you could use that channel as well.

Tap the smiley face in the message field. This will bring up the menu where you can select a sticker, emoji, or GIF.

Tap the GIFS tab. It's the middle tab in between Emojis and Stickers.

Tap on one of the GIF categories. Discord automatically sorts GIFs into categories based on their theme or reaction. There is also a Trending GIFs section where you can find GIFs that are popular amongst Discord users right now. If you prefer, you can use the search bar at the top of the GIFs section instead. Simply type the search term in the bar that says "Search Tenor."

Tap on a GIF to send it. Unfortunately, the only way to favorite a GIF on Discord mobile is to send it first.

Tap on the GIF in the message you just sent. Don't long-press the message, just tap on the GIF itself.

Tap the star button in the upper-right corner of the screen. This will add the GIF to your favorites so you can find it again easily. If you prefer, you can delete the GIF message after you've favorited the GIF. To do this, tap the x button in the upper-left corner of the screen (if you have the GIF still expanded), then long-press on the message. Scroll down and tap Delete Message, then Yes.
