Add New Question

  • Question

    If my phone doesn't have a front camera, how would I Skype?

    Community Answer

    Skype has an option to turn around the camera, so you could use that. But face-cam isn't required to Skype someone.

  • Question

    How do I receive calls?

    Community Answer

    If someone is trying to call you, Skype will turn into a blue screen with a green button (answer) and a red button (decline). It will also say details of who is trying to call you, and you will hear the call sound.

  • Question

    How do I change my name on the iPhone version?

    Community Answer

    Click on your personal settings, then look for where it says Name. Click, change your name, and you're all set.

  • Question

    After I'm finished using Skype, is there a sign out or shut down button?

    Community Answer

    There is a sign-out option, but no shut-down. You can, however, turn off the app.

  • Question

    How do I "unhide" a contact on my iPhone 4s?

  • Make sure you have a decent connection to the Internet when making video calls or the picture quality may be reduced.

  • To call a regular phone number, tap the Call button at the bottom right of the screen, and type the number using the keypad that appears.

Thanks for submitting a tip for review!

  • Video calls use a lot of bandwidth, so if you pay for a mobile data plan you might want to make video calls using Wi-Fi rather than your carrier's cellular network.

  • Making calls and sending messages from one Skype account to another is free, but you will be charged for calling regular phone numbers or sending SMS messages from the Skype app.

Things You'll Need

  • The Skype app for iPhone (available from the App Store)
  • A 3G/4G or Wi-Fi internet connection
  • A Skype account
