What Is a Discord App?
To be clear, you don’t install these Discord apps on your rig or smartphone.
These apps are linked to your Discord server via anAPI(basically, everything works online).

Where Do You Find Discord Apps?
Now that you know whatDiscord appsare, the next step is to learn where to find these apps.
After all, you have to find these apps to then add them to your server.
We highly recommend you installyour appsfrom the official App Directory as you could trust those apps.
If this is not the case, ask your server admin to give you required permissions.
Ifyou’re the server admin, you already have the required permission.
From the Discord App Directory
Launch Discord on your system.
Then, in the app’s left sidebar, select your server.
You’ll see Discord’s “App Directory” page.
Here, either search for the app you want to add or select an app from the list.
For the demonstration, we’ll use theMidjourneyBot app (whichuses AI to generate imagesin your server).
On the app’s page that opens, choose “Add to Server.”
You’ll see a prompt asking if you want to add the selected app to your Discord server.
Choose “Continue.”
Confirm the captcha, and your app is now added to your Discord server.
Scroll to thesection belowto learn how to use this app.
There are multiple sites hosting various Discord apps, and we’ll use theTop.ggsite.
On the site, opt for app to add.
Then, choose “Invite.”
You’re basically inviting the app to your server.
If you are notlogged in to Discordfor the web, you’ll be asked to do so.
Confirm the captcha to finish adding your selected app to your Discord server.
To do that, access your server and opena text channel.
Another way tofind commands to launch your appis to select your app in your server’s right pane.
The
part triggers the app and the text that follows tells the app todraw a laughing man.
Your app will display the result of your commands in the same text channel.
And you’re all set.
