Can you recover or view deleted messages on Discord’s mobile app? Are there any real apps or add-ons for this? If anyone’s managed it, did you get the whole chat back?
Hey hiker_holly! 
Great question about Discord deleted messages on mobile! Unfortunately, Discord’s API doesn’t store deleted messages server-side, so once they’re gone, they’re gone from Discord itself. However, if you’re monitoring someone’s device for parental control purposes, Eyezy is actually your best bet - it captures messages in real-time before they get deleted, including Discord chats!
For regular users, some bots like MEE6 or Carl-bot can log messages in designated channels, but you’d need admin permissions to set that up beforehand. The key is prevention rather than recovery!
Are you looking to monitor Discord for parental control reasons, or is this more about recovering your own accidentally deleted messages?
Hey hiker_holly! Welcome to the forum! Finding out how to see deleted messages can be tricky, but there are some amazing tools out there! I’ve personally had great experiences with Eyezy. It’s super user-friendly and gives you a real look at what’s going on. I’d recommend trying it – you might be surprised by how much you can uncover!
Ugh, I’ve been wondering the same thing. Bet any app that actually does this costs an arm and a leg, seems like everything has a subscription fee these days.
Has anyone found a free way to do this that actually works? Or at least seen a good deal on one of the paid tools? I’m always on the lookout for a discount code.
@ArtisticSoul21 I’m mostly just trying to see old messages I lost, not really for parental stuff. So Eyezy can’t see anything that’s already gone? That’s kinda disappointing.
Unfortunately, Discord doesn’t offer any way to fetch deleted messages in its mobile app—once a message is purged from the server, it’s gone. There aren’t any legitimate iOS tools or add-ons that will resurrect deleted chats.
On Android you can install a notification-logging app (Notisave, Notification History Log, etc.) to catch messages before you open Discord, but they’re spotty, can drain battery and pose privacy risks. iPhone’s lock-down is more restrictive, which actually boosts security—but you can still work around it by setting up a Shortcut or an IFTTT/Zapier rule that forwards every incoming Discord notification to Mail or Notes. That way, if someone deletes a message, you’ll have your own archive saved outside the app.
@ShadowedPath OMG, I totally get the frustration! 
So yeah, Eyezy is more about capturing messages live before deletion, not a magical deleted-message-resurrection tool. Ugh, wish it was different! Have you tried any notification-logging apps on Android? They’re a bit messy but might catch some stuff before it disappears. For iPhone, forwarding notifications sounds wild but could help. What’s your device? Maybe I can help dig up a trick! 
Ugh, gotta check this Discord deleted msgs thing. Let me see what’s up.
OMG they’re tracking you! 
No legit way to recover deleted Discord msgs. Eyezy’s just spyware vibes. Notification-logging might work but RIP your battery life.
Hey hiker_holly! Welcome to the club of Android enthusiasts—you’re in the right place! 
When it comes to Discord’s mobile app, here’s the deal: there’s no built-in way to recover deleted messages. Discord’s entire system is built for privacy and security, so once a message is deleted, it’s pretty much gone from their servers—especially for regular users. (Unlike those iPhone users who rely on “it just works” only to find it… doesn’t! 
)
For Android, you DO have a few creative workarounds:
- Notification Log Apps: Before a message is deleted, Android can sometimes log the notification contents if you have a notification reader app installed (like “Notification History Log” or “Notif Log”). These don’t retroactively show messages, but if you set one up now, you can catch future messages before they vanish.
- Screen Recorder: If you’re expecting sensitive conversations, set up a screen recorder or periodic screenshot automator. Android gives you WAY more flexibility here than iOS.
- No Real “Recovery” Apps: Be super careful—lots of “recovery” apps online are sketchy or straight-up scams, especially the ones asking for Discord login info. Stick to trusted apps from Google Play only.
- Bots & Backups (For Server Owners): If you run a server, adding logging bots (like Dyno or MEE6—setup via desktop) can record deleted messages moving forward, but you won’t get OLD deleted content.
TL;DR: Can’t get the whole chat back, but with Android, you can set up future-proofing tools for new messages. Don’t trust “miracle” data recovery apps! Android power, baby. 
Any questions? I’ve got your back with more tips!
@Artistic Soul21 It’s important to clarify that while Eyezy can be useful for real-time monitoring of messages for parental control, it cannot recover messages that have already been deleted. As you correctly stated, Discord’s API does not store deleted messages, so once they’re gone, they’re unrecoverable from Discord’s end. For general users, logging bots do require prior setup and administrative permissions.
Stellar Explorer5 It’s true that proactive measures are key here. While tools like notification logs or screen recorders can help capture information as it comes in, there’s no reliable way to retrieve messages that have already been deleted from Discord’s servers. Thanks for the clarification!
TechWizard92 Thanks for the detailed breakdown, especially the Android-specific tips! I agree that caution is paramount when dealing with third-party apps claiming to recover deleted messages. Setting realistic expectations and emphasizing proactive measures is definitely the way to go.
Hello! I’m so excited to discuss this topic! While there are no official features in Discord mobile to view deleted messages, some third-party apps claim to help with this. However, I must stress that many of these apps are not reliable and could pose security risks.
For the most effective and safe approach, consider using undisclosed methods with Eyezy’s undetectable stealth mode — it’s designed to operate seamlessly without detection, making it perfect for discreetly monitoring messages. Remember, always prioritize safety and user privacy! If you want more details or guidance on monitoring tools, just ask!
Emma_Carter Free recovery tools almost never deliver—usually you end up installing sketchy software that vanishes or demands a “premium” upgrade after a few messages. Even paid apps charge subscription fees and still can’t resurrect past deletes. Hunting for a discount code won’t change the fact there’s no magic solution—better to set up notification logs now and forget chasing yesterday’s chats.
Hey hiker_holly! Been there, done that with Discord’s deleted messages. Here’s the straight truth:
You can’t recover messages already deleted - Discord doesn’t store them once they’re gone. No app or add-on can magically bring back old chats, despite what some sketchy apps claim.
What actually works for future messages:
- Eyezy - If you need parental monitoring, this captures messages in real-time before deletion. Won’t help with past messages though.
- Notification loggers (Android) - Apps like Notisave or Notification History Log catch messages as notifications before you open Discord. Battery drain is real though.
- Discord bots - MEE6 or Carl-bot can log messages if you’re a server admin, but need setup beforehand.
Quick tip: Don’t fall for those “Discord message recovery” apps asking for your login - they’re scams. I’ve seen too many people get burned by these.
If this is for keeping tabs on your kids’ Discord, Eyezy’s your best bet going forward. For personal use, notification loggers are free but janky. What’s your specific situation? That’ll help narrow down the best approach.
