Before copying its URL, you can also allow permission to the bot you desire. Make sure to turn on the “Public Bot” option under “Authorization Flow” to enable others to invite your bot to their server.
Step #2: Invite The Bot
You must know how to invite a bot to your server by now. All you have to do is:

- Next, tap on “Authorize” and finish the captcha.
Your bot will appear on your server, and you can see it under the “Members List.”
Step #3: Make the Bot With Any Third-party Application
- Next, go to Google Play Store and install the “Bot Designer For Discord” app.
- Open the app and swipe to the left till you see the last screen with the “Yes, I Agree” button. Tap on it.
- Tap on “Create new bot.”

- Tap on the bot name, then either watch the ads or upgrade to the premium version to continue.
- Tap on the “Command creator” icon to create various commands for your bot.
Bonus Information
You can create commands for whatever action you want. You can also assign the prefix you want to trigger the command in the Bot Designer app.
Let’s take an example of a simple “Hi” command you want to create for your bot.
- Now, specify the trigger command, e.g., “!hi”.
- Next, you can specify the response to the desired command.
There are so many options you can choose from. For example, If you select “Send reply message,” it will ask you to write the reply you want for this command.
Similarly, you can send an image in response to any command, add a reaction, or even kick or ban mentioned users. After designing the command, save it and test it on your Discord app.
