Where to find quests on your phone
Quests on Discord mobile appear in the Quests tab, which you access from the bottom navigation bar. Open Discord on your phone, then tap the icon that looks like a scroll or banner — it sits between the Home and Shop icons at the bottom of your screen. This tab shows all available quests for your account, organized by game or service.
The Quests tab only appears if you have access to Discord's quest system, which rolls out gradually to users. If you do not see a Quests icon at the bottom, your account may not have access yet. Discord enables quests for accounts over a certain age and in certain regions, so you may need to wait for your account to become may be able to access.
Once you open the Quests tab, you will see a list of active quests. Each quest shows the reward you will receive when you complete it — usually Discord Nitro credits, game currency, or in-game items. Tap any quest to see the full details, including what you need to do and how much time you have left to finish it.
Key Takeaways
- The Quests tab sits at the bottom of the Discord mobile app between Home and Shop, and shows all quests available to your account.
- Each quest displays the exact reward you will receive and the deadline for completion when you tap it.
- Most quests require you to play a specific game, join a server, or use a Discord feature for a set amount of time.
- Completing a quest removes it from your list and adds the reward to your account immediately.
- If the Quests tab does not appear, your account may not have access yet — Discord rolls out quests gradually.
How to complete a quest step by step
Tap the quest you want to complete to open its details page. The page shows exactly what action you need to take — for example, "Play a game for 30 minutes" or "Join a server and send a message." Read the requirement carefully, because some quests have multiple steps you must finish in order.
Follow the instruction. If the quest asks you to play a game, launch that game from Discord or your phone's app store and play for the time shown. If it asks you to join a server, tap the link provided in the quest details, join the server, and complete any secondary action like sending a message. Discord tracks your progress automatically — you do not need to do anything extra to log your activity.
Return to the Quests tab after you finish the requirement. The quest will show a checkmark or "Completed" status. Tap it once more to claim your reward. The reward appears in your account immediately — if it is Nitro credits, they go to your Nitro balance; if it is a game item, it goes to your inventory in that game.
What happens if you miss a quest deadline
Each quest has an expiration date shown in the details. If you do not complete the quest before that date, it disappears from your Quests tab and you lose the reward. Discord does not offer extensions or second chances for expired quests.
New quests appear regularly, so missing one does not lock you out of future rewards. Check the Quests tab every few days to see what new quests are available. Some quests return on a rotation, so you may see the same quest again in a few weeks or months.
Troubleshooting quests that will not complete
If you finished the quest requirement but the quest still shows as incomplete, close Discord completely and reopen it. This forces the app to refresh and sync your progress with Discord's servers. Wait a few minutes after completing the requirement before checking — Discord sometimes takes time to register that you finished the task.
If the quest still does not mark complete after refreshing, check that you met every part of the requirement. Some quests have hidden conditions — for example, a "play a game" quest might require you to play for the full time in one session, not across multiple sessions. Read the quest details again to make sure you did not miss a detail.
If you are certain you completed the quest correctly and it still will not mark complete, the quest may be broken. Leave it alone and move on to other quests. Broken quests are rare, but Discord does not offer compensation for them.
Why some quests do not appear on your account
Discord shows different quests to different users based on your region, account age, and which games or services you use. A quest for a specific game will not appear if you have never played that game on Discord. Similarly, quests for certain services only show to users in countries where those services operate.
If you see other users talking about a quest you do not see, it may simply not be available to your account. This is not an error — it is how Discord targets quests to the right people. You will see plenty of other quests that are available to you.
Rewards and what you can do with them
Most quests reward Discord Nitro credits, which you can use to pay for a month of Nitro or add to your balance if you already subscribe. Some quests reward in-game items or currency for specific games — these go directly to your game account when you claim them. A few quests reward Discord Server Boosts, which you can use to upgrade a server you own or moderate.
Rewards do not expire. If you claim a Nitro credit reward and do not use it right away, it stays in your account until you spend it. In-game items appear in your game inventory immediately and follow that game's rules about expiration or trading.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I complete a quest on desktop and see it finished on mobile?
Yes. Discord syncs your quest progress across all devices. If you complete a quest requirement on your computer, the quest will show as complete when you open the Quests tab on your phone. You can claim the reward on whichever device you prefer.
Do I have to complete quests in a specific order?
No. You can complete quests in any order you want. If a quest has multiple steps, you must do those steps in the order shown, but you can work on different quests at the same time.
What if I uninstall a game before finishing a quest?
If you uninstall the game, you cannot complete the quest requirement. The quest will expire on its deadline and disappear. You will not receive the reward. Reinstalling the game does not restart the quest timer.
Are quests the same for everyone?
No. Discord shows different quests based on your location, account age, and activity. You may see quests that your friends do not see, and vice versa. This is intentional — Discord targets quests to different users.
Can I get a quest back if I accidentally claimed the reward?
No. Once you claim a reward, the quest is complete and cannot be undone. You keep the reward. If you claimed it by mistake, contact Discord Support, but they typically do not reverse completed quests.
