Frequently asked questions
Answers to common questions about mcord
mcord is a voice chat, messaging, and community platform with channels, DMs, video, screen sharing, files, roles, permissions, custom emoji and GIFs, security options, and custom bot connectivity.
What mcord is designed to bring together
Communities use mcord to organize recurring conversation into voice rooms and text channels while retaining DMs for direct member communication. Video calls, screen sharing, and files extend those conversations when members need to show or share more.
Roles and permissions help owners shape access, while custom emoji and GIFs give members ways to express the culture of their group.
Where members can access mcord
mcord provides a Windows client, an Android application for Android 7 and newer, and a PWA for supported browsers. The right option depends on the device and the capabilities needed for a particular session.
A signed-in phone can also approve a short-lived desktop QR login. Members can separately enable TOTP two-factor authentication and retain recovery codes.
What developers can self-host
Developers can run Node.js or Python bot workers on their own infrastructure and connect those workers through mcord REST and Gateway interfaces.
This is a bot deployment option only. It should not be interpreted as a claim that the complete mcord service or client stack can be self-hosted.
