IOS speaker only
Terminée
Id very much like discord to change back to how it was. I see many others also feel this way, in fact i'm yet to see someone that supports this change. I can no longer have private calls with speaker only mode. Don't fix something that isn't broke!

I have the same problem

I agree, it’s my main use of communication and many have already pleaded discord on twitter to bring it back. I’m disappointed.

I absolutely hate that Discord on my phone now doesn't have the option to switch between regular and speaker. Not having speaker would be annoying, but not having the regular way keeps me from using it on my phone 99% of the time. It's too loud and disruptive to everyone else around. I liked that I could hop on Discord on my phone while I'm out and about - but having it on speaker??? Can you imagine hoping on Discord at the grocery store only to pop into a channel that's gaming? I don't know about your friends, but mine can get pretty vulgar. I don't want to accidentally walk past little kids and be responsible for introducing new (and usually wholly inappropriate) words/ideas to them. Please, change it back. If we want to use the speaker option we can choose that on our own.

Some people prefer not to use their speaker outside, I'd like it changed back.

This is a stupid decision change it back

Looking at other posts, I've noticed that this is the only 'open' post on this topic. The other previous ones have already been closed out (answered) stating that there doesn't need to be more than 1 thread on this topic and linking over to the supposed 'correct' place to talk about it - but when you follow it THAT topic has been closed out (answered) stating that if they have an issue with 'troubleshooting' they should file a ticket. :/ This is NOT a troubleshooting problem. I actually sent in a ticket first and they sent me response saying it's intentional and that if I wanted to voice my opinion on it I should come here.
Please do NOT close out this thread.

Hi Shen,
Thanks for writing in. The speaker option was removed from our audio output selector on iOS(AKA the AirPlay button)! This change was intentional on our part. The "iPhone" option will output audio via the device's speaker.
However, you can still select external output sources (IE Bluetooth and wired headsets, AirPlay devices) in the AirPlay output menu if you'd prefer not to use your device's speaker.
As with every new change though, we're definitely keeping everyone's feedback in mind. I'll make sure to pass your input along to the team, but it would also help if you could vote up the suggestion at feedback.discordapp.com since feedback contributes greatly to our decision making of which features and fixes to implement in the future based on what our community wants.
Please let me know if you have any other questions and I'd be more than happy to help!
Best,

I don’t like the update

Yeaaaaaah we want it back please

It’s sad to see how discord made the mobile speaker only, how can we have private conversations with speaker only, it would be great if the change went back since this was something that was never broken and the intention to “fix it” made it even worse :( please reverse this !!

I completely agree. Not only do I think it's counter productive to remove features, but to do so without even saying anything about it to anyone? It seriously makes no sense. It's all well and good to add new features to the platform to try to better it but this is simply nothing but a removal of a previous feature. Even if the justification was that the majority of people only use the speaker feature it makes no sense; you've just objectively made a worse user experience for your users who relied on it. My partner and I use Discord for hours on end and now we have to switch to using things like Telegram because of this unwanted forced change. Ridiculous. Please revert this.

Technically speaking we deserve the right to have privacy in calls sometimes I
don’t wanna wear headphones or earphones they hurt my ears and there’s a lot of people that want this opinion back. I’m sorry to say that I don’t wanna use discord now because I don’t have this opinion open. I don’t wanna lay in bed with a speaker blasting in my ear while my IPhone x is changing and I don’t have wireless headphones.30 -
Agree with everyone who’s saying Discord just removed user control as if it were an added feature. Not gonna fly! Add phone/earpiece back please.
24 -
So you’re all saying you can only use the speaker? I only want to use my speaker, but the iOS app only lets me use the earpiece.

Anrose, correct. That’s what I was saying. I can use headset or speaker. No longer an option to use “phone” like there was before last update.
10 -
Btw, Discord has confirmed they deliberately got rid of “phone” option, claiming most ppl just use speaker anyway.
11 -
Clearly there is a massive amount of people upset about this. Change it back!
25 -
That’s not really true in this case we are the people that are speaking out for thousands to a company one email is 1000 letters.

I've seen tones of complaints on Reddit and Twitter

I agree! We used to have the option to switch between speaker and the private call function. How was having the ability to switch between the two harming anyone? I use Discord Mobile a lot to talk to my Fiancé. We’re in a long distance relationship, and while speaker is nice, sometimes we’d like to take our calls privately...
This shouldn’t have been removed. We shouldn’t have to have AirPods or other headphones plugged in to have a private call. I really wish they’d just revert it back to giving us an option between iPhone and Speaker.
Discord is the main source of communication for me, and a lot of my friends. I don’t always want everyone around me to hear my conversations, nor do I want to be a bother by having it on speaker phone in the middle of a public place.
21 -
And it’s aggrivating because my boyfriend, who uses Android cannot be off speaker, but I cannot be ON his speaker, so he can barely hear me.
Discord devs, why do this to iOS users??14 -
It’s absolutely ridiculous. We can no longer have the privacy of private calls being private in public areas.
What idiot thought it was a good idea to remove our privacy? This is unheard of in 2019, absolute trash18 -
I was quite upset to find out that speaker is now the only option. One of the biggest draws to me picking Discord over other apps/communication programs was having the ability to use Discord like a phone call while still accessing my communities. Being able to call others while doing other tasks was nice; I liked the privacy. Now, I either have to use earphones, or some other audio device when I could previously just use my convenient mic/audio built into my phone. This is really frustrating for me because I now have to resort to other programs where Discord previously had everything I needed. I understand that many folks used/preferred speaker phone, however, there are many individuals like myself who feel a bit disenfranchised by this (many being those from my friend groups). I have always considered Discord as a program that values having options for everyone; this seems out of character.

And why single-out iOS users to make this inconvenience? Android didn’t get this feature removed! Grr!!
15 -
As someone who likes to use it when I’m out and about and still stay in contact with friends this update sucks. I can no longer use it on break and can’t really use it while running errands anymore. I just don’t understand why you would take away the option to choose.
8 -
This new feature is horrible, If I'm in a restaurant or other public location and receive a call, my conversation is public. I do not carry my earplugs or headphones,
MORE IMPORTANTLY, I HAVE AN IPHONE X. THERE IS ONLY ONE PORT FOR CHARGER AND HEADPHONE, SO CANNOT RECEIVE CALL ON WEAK BATTERY AND CHARGE PHONE AT THE SAME TIME.
Please give users a choice, probably will be talking on phone a lot less.

:) Hope that helps! There are so many upset about this new change!3 -
Just wow! You took away our choice of using the speaker or just the phone. I use the speaker option at home so I can be hands free plus ear phones do not like my ears. Give us back our option!!
10 -
This update took away our options , and I don’t see the reasoning , don’t think it will make app much smaller, it just took the freedom for us to choose ! I will send the link to this to all of my gaming friends that have complained to me as well!!! Keep posting everyone, I want our option back

Appreciate that Tim. The louder we make our voice the more it will be heard.
