If you’re anything like most people, you probably don’t want to spoil your movie or TV show experience by discussing the plot ahead of time with your friends. But what do you do if you want to warn them about an image in a Discord chat that might contain spoilers? There are a few ways to mark an image as a spoiler on Discord. The easiest way is to simply hover your mouse over the image and click on the three lines that appear next to it. This will open up a menu where you can choose between “Spoiler” and “Not A Spoiler.” If you’d rather not use this feature, there’s also a keyboard shortcut that you can use. To do this, press Ctrl + G (PC) or Cmd + G (Mac) while hovering over the image. This will open up a menu where you can choose between “Spoiler” and “Not A Spoiler.” ..
When your recipient receives the image, it will be a blurry image with a spoiler tag on it. When this tag is clicked, the image opens as usual.

Spoiler an Image in Discord for Mobile
On your iPhone, iPad, or Android phone, use the official Discord app to send spoiler images.
To do so, first, launch the Discord app on your phone. In the app, open the chat in which you want to spoiler an image.
In the chat screen’s bottom-left corner, tap the “+” (plus) icon.
From the gallery view that opens, choose the image you’d like to send. Don’t tap the Send button just yet. Instead, tap outside of the image area so you’re back on the chat screen.
Tap your attached photo to open it in full size. Beneath the photo, enable “Mark as Spoiler.” Then tap the Back button.
You’re back on the chat screen. Here, optionally, enter the text to go along with your image. Then tap the Send button to send your photo as a spoiler in your current chat.
When your recipient gets the image, they will have to tap or click on the image before they can see it. If they don’t do this, the image won’t open.
And that’s how you ensure your friends don’t end up seeing the spoilers they aren’t supposed to see!
