Mass Delete Discord Messages
Free · last 30 daysRedact mass deletes your Discord messages with a powerful, intuitive set of tools. Target specific messages you've sent, or clear your entire Discord history back to the beginning of time.
We won't force you to wipe everything: safeguard the messages that still matter by archiving them locally on your device first. You can also fine-tune the batch, targeting messages as specific as those containing a particular keyword sent between March 2020 and September 2021.
And there's no need to worry about an overeager filter. Run your settings dry in Preview mode to see exactly what will be removed before you confirm, and exclude individual messages from the batch for the kind of control and precision you can't get anywhere else.

Delete Chat & Private Messages by Date Range
Free · last 30 daysRedact software gives you complete control over what timeframe to include or ignore when you bulk delete discord messages.
Our mass Discord message deletion tool allows you to:
- Delete everything within specific dates
- Delete everything after a specific date
- Delete everything before a specific date
Or, you can specify individual months, weeks, or years - whatever you feel most comfortable with and whatever works best for your circumstances. If you'd prefer to use relative dates (e.g. 3 days ago), we've applied all the same functionality. Whether you want to delete everything older than 6 weeks, all your messages between 2 and 3 years old, or everything from the last month - Redact has you covered.
Date Range
These dates are set to specific dates. The Scheduler feature will delete only between these dates.
Delete Specific Message Types
Free · last 30 daysWith Redact, you do not have to purge your entire Discord history to clean up the parts that matter. Beyond limiting the scope to a date range, you can focus on a single type of content. For example, you can delete every image you have ever sent, mass delete every video, or clear all your messages except the ones with files.
Uncheck every box except the type you want and the run only looks for matching messages. Combine several content types to clear them together, or select just one for pinpoint precision, so you get the job done without removing things you would rather keep. Everything runs locally, and you can archive a copy before anything is removed.
Message Types
Select which message types to delete
Delete by Keyword
Free · last 30 daysWhen you clean up your Discord messages with Redact, you can target only the ones that contain specific words. Maybe you joined a server and had some political arguments back in 2020, or you shared a personal detail you would rather not leave in the chat. Set your keywords and Redact deletes only the messages that contain them, across every server, channel, and DM.
Just like with message types, you can feed as few or as many keywords to Redact as you need: pinpoint precision, total cleanup, or something in between. Stack keywords with a date range and content type, and preview every match before anything is removed.
Text Search
Search for messages containing these words or phrases
Matches full words only, like Discord's built-in search.
Delete Discord Direct Messages in Bulk
Free · last 30 daysYour Discord footprint isn't just server messages, it includes your DMs too. Redact is a full Discord DM deleter: clear every message with one specific person, or wipe your direct messages with everyone at once. Filter by date range, keyword, or content type first, preview the batch, and Redact works through it in bulk while respecting Discord's rate limits.
Because Discord removes a deleted DM for everyone in the chat, what you clear is gone from the other person's side too, so make sure there's nothing in there you still need.
Moderator Mode
PremiumRedact gives server admins the same deletion power we give individual users, applied to the communities they moderate. Open the Mod Servers tab and clear other members' messages across the servers and channels you run, filtered by user, keyword, date, or content type. If your community changes a moderation policy, you can apply it retroactively across the server's history, with the same preview-first control you get over your own posts. Moderator deletion is a Redact Premium feature and runs locally on your device.
Quickly Delete Discord Chat & DM History
Free · last 30 daysExperience the power of the Redact App, your all-in-one Discord content deletion solution. Mass delete messages using specific keywords, date ranges, and content types, or ignore all the filters to start completely fresh. To hang on to all those years of memories, archive everything locally before saying goodbye. Clean up more than just your chat posts, but your DMs as well.

Frequently asked questions
You can mass delete messages in specific Discord Channels with Redact! Discord handles Channel message deletion a little bit differently, so we've created a video walkthrough doing this with Redact.
No, by default, discord moderators cannot see deleted messages in their server. There is no native option to view or restore deleted messages in Discord servers. Some servers have logging bots that may save copies before deletion.
You cannot natively find deleted messages on Discord. If you are using a logging bot for your server, it may have records of deleted messages that you can access. If you are looking for a specific message that may have been deleted, use Discord's built-in search feature. With Redact.dev, you can enable the local archive feature to save a local copy of all messages that have been previewed or deleted by Redact.dev. If you want to save a one-time snapshot of a channel or server, Redact is a great way to do this without needing to use a logging bot.
No, blocking a user does not delete their DMs. Blocking someone on Discord prevents them from sending you messages, and hides their messages in servers from your view. Blocking users also removes them from your friend's list. Even if you block someone, you can choose to read their messages in mutual servers by clicking the "show message" button. If you're concerned about your message history with a blocked user, the safest option to delete delete your messages with them. Redact.dev allows you to automate this process by deleting all direct messages with a specific user, or deleting server messages in specific channels or communities.
