You can use Better Discord and a plugin to display a live call duration counter on Discord.

Follow these steps to set it up:

Download Better Discord: Visit betterdiscord.app and download the application.


Install Better Discord: Follow the installation steps and open your Discord application.


Access Settings: In Discord, navigate to User Settings.


Find the Better Discord Menu: Scroll down until you locate the Better Discord section.


Download the CallTimeCounter Plugin: Visit the CallTimeCounter plugin page and download the plugin.


Install the CallTimeCounter Plugin:

  • Go to Discord Settings > Better Discord > Plugins > Open Plugin Folder (Icon).

  • Copy the downloaded CallTimeCounter plugin file into the folder. (From your download file to the plugin file on Discord).


Fix the Library Plugin Error (If Needed):

  • If an error message requests a library plugin, download the ZeresPluginLibrary from here.

  • Copy the 0PluginLibrary.plugin.js file into the same plugin folder.(As the step mentioned above)


    Enable the Plugins:

  • In Discord, go to Better Discord > Plugins and enable both CallTimeCounter and ZeresPluginLibrary.


Restart Discord: Close and reopen Discord to apply the changes.


View the Call Timer:

  • During a call, check the bottom left corner of your Discord app to see the real-time call duration counter.

This setup allows you to track how long you’ve been on a call in real-time while using Discord.

Disclaimer:

  • If you are on a Pay-Per-Minute call, our Pay-Per-Minute plugin already displays a call duration counter.

  • If you are on a Prepaid call, this solution can help you keep track of your remaining time manually.
