Stealth Mode

You can manage who sees your image creations on the Midjourney website by using Stealth Mode.

What is Stealth Mode?

Stealth Mode lets you control who can see your images on the Midjourney website. You can choose which images to make public (publish) or keep private (unpublish).

Important: Even with Stealth Mode turned on, any images made in public channels on Discord or rooms on web are still visible to others. If you want total privacy, use your web Create page, generate them in Discord direct messages, or work in a private Discord server while using Stealth Mode.

Stealth Mode is available only to Pro and Mega plan members. If you cancel or downgrade your subscription, any images you've unpublished will stay that way on the site.

Switching to Stealth Mode

Your website and Discord settings are synced. This means that if you change your settings in one place, they'll automatically change in the other—including Stealth Mode. Double-check your settings to make sure they're set the way you want them before you generate images!

• With Parameters: To change your default setting for a specific prompt, just add the --stealth or --public parameter at the end of your prompt in the Imagine bar.
  
  With Settings: You can turn Stealth Mode on or off through the settings panel, which you can access with the settings button in the Imagine bar. Changing your default mode will apply to all your future prompts but won't affect your existing images.
  
  To see which of your images are public, visit your Organize page and use the filter checkboxes to select Published images.
• With Commands: Use /stealth or /public as a standalone command in Discord to switch between Stealth Mode and Public Mode.
  
  With Settings: Use the settings command and turn the 🧍‍♂️Public Mode button on or off from the menu. When the button is green it means you are in Public Mode. When the button is gray it means you are in Stealth Mode.
  
  Changing your default mode will apply to all your future prompts but won't affect your existing images.
  
  With Parameters: To change your setting for a specific prompt, simply add the --stealth or --public parameter at the end of the prompt.
  
  To confirm which mode you're in, use the info command in Discord and check your Visibility Mode.

Unpublish Existing Images

Upgrading to a subscription plan with Stealth Mode lets you unpublish images you made before, even if they were created under a lower-tier plan. But keep in mind, upgrading or setting Stealth Mode as your default doesn't automatically make your public images private. You'll need to manually unpublish them to make them private.

Individual Images

To change the visibility of an individual image, click into it from your Create or Organize page and use the options button located near the prompt text.

Multiple Images

To change multiple images all at once, go to your Organize page. You can click and drag or use shift + click to select multiple images. Once you've selected them, look for the More button in the bulk change pop-up window at the bottom of the screen. This will allow you to make bulk changes easily.

No, hiding and unpublishing are not the same. Hiding an image on the website only makes it invisible to you—it remains public, and other users can still view it.
