Well I created an android app to host discord bots easily. just enter your token and click on host. It will use your android to host your android bot 24/7. I’ll show you the basic structure how you can do it.

Steps To Create An Android App To Host Discord Bots
In order to this you must have a basic understanding of Android Studio and JAVA.
Open your android studio and create a new empty project.
Now open build.gradle and these things in buildscript and allprojects
// add just mavenCentral
buildscript {
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
mavenCentral()
}
// add just mavenCentral
allprojects {
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
mavenCentral()
}
}then go to your app gradle and add these libraries.
implementation "androidx.multidex:multidex:2.0.1"
implementation 'org.javacord:javacord:3.1.2'You have to enable the multidex in default config under app gradle
//only copy - paste multiDexEnabled true in default config
defaultConfig {
multiDexEnabled true
}Now lets customize our activity-main.xml for UI of our app.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="My Bot Builder"
android:textSize="30sp"
android:textStyle="bold"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="0.458"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintVertical_bias="0.21" />
<EditText
android:id="@+id/userToken"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:ems="10"
android:hint="Token"
android:inputType="textPersonName"
android:textStyle="bold"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@+id/textView"
app:layout_constraintVertical_bias="0.113" />
<Button
android:id="@+id/hostButton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="HOST"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="0.498"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@+id/userToken"
app:layout_constraintVertical_bias="0.204" />
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>This is how the UI of the app will look nothing so special.
Ok now we will have to create backend so that we can make this app host our bot using token.
Lets Go Our Main-Activity.java and do some coding. we are using javacord library to interact with discord API.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
Button hostButton;
EditText userToken;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
hostButton = findViewById(R.id.hostButton);
userToken = findViewById(R.id.userToken);
hostButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@RequiresApi(api = Build.VERSION_CODES.N)
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
//fetching token from editable Text on app
String token = userToken.getText().toString();
//making bot online using token
DiscordApi api = new DiscordApiBuilder().setToken(token).login().join();
//command
api.addMessageCreateListener(event -> {
if (event.getMessageContent().equalsIgnoreCase("!ping")) {
event.getChannel().sendMessage("Pong!").thenAccept(message -> {
// Attach a listener directly to the message
message.addReactionAddListener(reactionEvent -> {
if (reactionEvent.getEmoji().equalsEmoji("👎")) {
reactionEvent.deleteMessage();
}
}).removeAfter(30, TimeUnit.MINUTES);
});
}
});
}
});
}
}And that’s it but keep in mind this app will only work for android 7.0 [API 24+] and above.
