Practical safety guide

Set up Discord more safely

7 minutesEssential

1. Family Center

Connect the teen and parent accounts to view safety activity such as newly added friends and recently contacted users.

2. Content and contact

Open User Settings → Content & Social. Enable sensitive-content filters and restrict direct messages and friend requests.

3. Server safety

Review joined servers, permissions and privacy settings. Teach the teen to leave, block and report harmful users or communities.

Final check: confirm privacy, communication, account protection, content, purchases and reporting tools. Review settings again after major app or game updates.
