In case, if we want to “undeafen” ourselves; we have to repeat the same steps. As by hitting on the “deafen” button again, we will be able to listen and talk within the joined voice channel.

How to Deafen/Undeafen Other Discord Members 

To deafen/undeafen the other members of the voice channel, we will follow the following steps:

Step 1: List Down All Joined Member

On the main page of the voice channel, tap on the “person/member” icon located in the top right corner. This will list down all the members who are in the voice channel. We only have to select the person which we want to be deafened or undeafened in the server:

Step 2: Select the Server Deafen Option

Swipe up on the profile of the person to take the full overview of the available options; within all options find and select “Server Deafen”. Tapping on the server deafen will make that person ineligible to hear or talk within that server’s voice channel.

Step 3: Verification

The red line placed over the headphone icon indicates that the person is now deafened:

To undeafen the target, we have to tap on the “Server Undeafen” option again.

Note: We need to be the owner or must have administrative privileges to make someone deafen/undeafen within the server’s voice channel.
