Description

Skype keeps the world talking. Say “hello” with an instant message, voice or video call – all for free*, no matter what device they use Skype on. Skype is available on phones, tablets, PCs and Macs.
• Video calls – Don’t just hear the cheers, see them! Get together with 1 or 24 of your friends and family on a HD video call. Watch everyone’s smiles and cries when you tell them “We’re engaged!!!” 
• Chat – Reach people instantly. Send messages to your friends, grab someone’s attention with @ mentions or create a group chat to plan a family reunion. 
• Share – Send photos and videos with your family and friends. Save shared photos and videos to your camera roll. Share your screen to make travel plans with friends or present designs to your team.
• Voice calls – Camera shy? Make voice calls to anyone in the world on Skype. You can also call mobile and landlines at low rates.
• Express yourself – Liven up conversations with emoticons, click on the “+” in chat to send a Giphy or images from the web, and annotate images with words, lines and more.
*Skype to Skype calls are free. Operator data charges may apply. We recommend using an unlimited data plan or WiFi connection.
Call landline and device numbers and send SMS messages anywhere in the world at affordable prices using Skype. Reach non-Skype users or contacts who are not online by choosing Skype Credit or Skype subscriptions. 
 
Choose Skype Credit as a pay-as-you-go option to call and SMS. If you call specific destinations, save even more with monthly subscriptions. Skype subscriptions are monthly calling plans that let you make unlimited, or fixed-minute calls to landlines (and mobiles where applicable). Subscriptions begin at $2.99 a month for US, and can vary by destination. To make an in-app purchase, open the app, go to the Call tab and tap on the Skype to Phone banner. Skype Credit and Subscriptions purchased from the Skype app will be charged to your iTunes account when the purchase has been confirmed.
 
Your account will be charged for Skype subscription renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period. Your subscription is renewed automatically unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period of subscription.
 
You can manage your subscription by going to your Apple ID account settings and choosing the auto-renewal option or turning it off at any time after your purchase.

Call records and chat should be in different page. It’s difficult to search the text.
Please remove the default msg “give me a call when u r back”. It does not need all time. It must be customer choice that we need that msg or not.

I have been using Skype for about 10 years+ now. It is one of the best voice over internet applications which has quite a clarity and chat support. Down time has been minimal and issues have always been addressed well within time.
Keep up the good job Skype!

Hi This used to work great before. I have two subscriptions to make unlimited calls to North America as well as United States. In the trial period it worked like a charm and I renewed it but now it is giving soo much trouble. Issue is intermittent, if I try 10 times, one time it will take the extension and other times it does not detect any input. I have tried this from my iphone as well as window 10 laptop. Kindly look into this or make a refund of month of my subscriptions. Thanks

Ever since I’ve updated my Skype app, it continually shows “connecting” and never loads previous messages, keeps “connecting” even when my internet connection is fast and no other app shows this kinda problem.
Same with the desktop app. And I looked online in forums: I’m not the only one.

Paid Skype 📞is just wonderful and I prefer it to free applications making you independent of all of the apps. Relationships are more precious then the small amount one spends while making paid Skype calls. 😀

Its WASTE OF TIME to keep typing username and password after we logout. Can’t you make the design like rest of the world where either 1) username stays and we type password 2) username stays and we login using facial recognition 3) or simply username and password is entered using facial recognition.
Current design is dumb. Oh btw username and password can stay on same page. Why do you need two separate pages and add one more click for me.
Next, everytime we login two most annoying screens show up 1) choose your theme. - dumb design, just ask me once when i signup and DONT ASK ME EVERYTIME. 2) access contacts- no i do not want to allow you to access contacts. Dont ask me everytime.
Why doesn’t Microsoft fire skype developers who dont care about the design and experience?
Fix it quick.

You buy some credit and get calling.
*Don't buy a subscription though. It's a rip-off. It's restricted to a country and expires after a month. Just like money in real-life. Yes? Nope.

Can't hear the other person

The current version of Skype for iphone leaves the message in the text box as a draft after sending it. It usually happens if you minimise the app aft er sending the message. I think it’s a glitch and needs fixing perhaps?
And if you try giving feedback to app support, you get AI boys which always ask to ask community

Skype to Skype video and audio calls work fine.
But before you purchase any subscription for Skype to phone calls. Beware it works sometimes like 2 out of 10 times.
