Speakerphone’s on when picking up Skype call? 1/5
By Andrii-zp
Why speakerphone is on when picking up Skype call? Why there is no option to switch it back to the way it was before? I was using Skype for years. This update is terrible. Rated 1 star until this issue is fixed.
I’m very disappointed and need assistance immediately 1/5

I hate Microsoft. 1/5
By Get Microsoft out of Skype
I had to use Skype for a work thing because of coronavirus. First it wouldn’t let me recover my old account. Then when I FINALLY made a new account it told me that it will not work on my chromebook. It would not let me delete my account either since I wasn’t on a Microsoft computer. So then I tried it on my phone. I once again tried to recover my old account. It would not let me. So I tried to make a new account. Once again no luck. I wish Microsoft hadn’t bought Skype. The reason I originally stopped using Skype was because Microsoft bought it. I will never use this again if I don’t have to.

Low Latency is great, mobile audio settings awful 2/5
By PongFan
Most music teachers I know use Skype because there’s super low latency. Problem is, we can’t use our iPad or iPhone Pro’s because the desktop audio settings for turning off automatic gain control are missing from the mobile version.
Would be great to have an “original audio” mode that for music teaching (no AGC, background noise filters, low latency, etc).
That would save me from going to my desktop / laptop for every violin or piano class.

Difficult 1/5
By taga_san
I’ve been on this app for 15 minutes, cannot find how to make an outgoing call. Way more difficult than it should be.
Thank You 5/5
By Dembwm
I wld like to thank you for providing this service. My mother is in a rest home and since the corona virus outbreak, this is the only way we have of talking and seeing her. She has alz/ dementia and every day is precious. It is terribly hard but this app helps so that we can visit with her.
SongSeries 5/5
By geogiovanni
Skype has been a life saver. I have a YouTube show on my channel @WordOfGeo. I interview musicians on my SongSeries show, but now that we are all suffering with the Covid-19 virus, all of the interviews need to be digital.
Skype has helped so much with the transition. This platform allows me to conduct my interviews, and they look really professional.
Thank you so much.
Convoluted and unclear 1/5
By Janusz3
I used to use Skype years ago when it was predominantly a texting app, and I’m not sure what went wrong. In this new version, adding new people is convoluted—do I text them? Why isn’t it working? Do I send a QR code? How do I teach my grandmother what a QR code is? After 45 minutes of trying to hamfistedly connect with someone—both through QR code and through synced address books—to no avail, we gave up and uninstalled this unintuitive disaster. I’m sticking with FaceTime, and if my contacts don’t have an iPhone, that’s too bad. I won’t be using this again.
Skype blocked a contact mobile number from other country 1/5
By Carlotota*
I have been using Skype for many years. Since my mother doesn’t have internet access I have been purchasing credit to call her mobile number. Well a month ago Skype decided to block her number. The message I received when I call is “contact blocked by Skype”. I already tried to see contacts I blocked and my mother is not in that list. I confirmed my caller ID. My internet connection is great. I tried to talk to someone from Skype and that was not an option. I guess that now with the pandemia that is impossible.
Super 5/5
By Carman too
Great app. Not hard to use. Easy to stay connected with friends!
Substantial delay in updating contacts’ online status??? 3/5

Issue happens recently, please fix it. It had always been good. Thank you.
Best app ever 5/5

Skype is extremely helpful! Also, if you have friends with different phone types, if they have it downloaded you can call them so easily! Thanks Skype!
Poor performance 2/5

It worked 3/5
By ClasslessTie
Skype worked fine until it had and update, then all of a sudden it wouldn’t let me into the app now. I called my friend everyday, now I can’t even get into the app.😭
Great! 5/5

Great app would def recommend! :)
No privacy 1/5
By FowlManor
Active status will not stay on what I set it to. Reverts to active after 10 seconds.
How to get credit????? 2/5
By 80south
What a useless design in the app when you try to order credit it just says “your order was unsuccessful” without any mention of what went wrong or how to fix it. I went to Microsoft Live to make sure my payment method was up-to-date. It is. Still doesn’t work. Then the Microsoft advice for getting credit says to follow the prompts to use the App Store to buy credit. There are no prompts. Nor does there seem to be a way to buy credit in live ms live store. Who designs this thing? Works for calls until you need more credit and there is no way to buy it.
Great internet connection 5/5

Excellent App 5/5
By PrincessLunaFrost
I’ve been using Skype since 2007 and I always find it reliable. Excellent way to communicate with friends and family who live far!
Very laggy 3/5
By Anonymous Coward 123
The performance of the app is just insufferable. Everything in the UI lags. Works ok but is tragic - no other messaging program on my phone stutters nearly as much when opening a chat conversation.
Pretty good 4/5
By hi! how are ya?
I really do like this app. I downloaded it because my friends wanted to video chat but one of my friends had an android and couldn’t do FaceTime. So we got Skype. I must say I wasn’t expecting it to be this good. I am only giving 4 stars because the quality of the video chat sometimes is a little glitchy, but over all I would highly recommend this app.
Great but... 4/5
By hpgirlava
So me and my friend need to use Skype to communicate, and all is fine except for when we call each other. Sometimes, when the call starts, all I hear is crackle like noises and when it settles, I can’t hear her. I don’t know if it is my app or hers, but please fix this.
403 error with Google 1/5
By AstralDarkstar
Trying to log in with Google and I keep getting an error with logging in with a Google account. This option should either be removed or you should work with Google to get this working. I’m not going to use a web browser to troubleshoot or fix the issue. It needs to all work from the app.
And when it doesn’t work and gives an error, there’s no go back button. I have to force close the app just to start over.
Getting started on using your for the first app should be very important. People will give up if it’s not easy to get started.
Um 1/5
By jklomjb
I don’t like it I tried to sign in with my phone number. I never used this app. And it wouldn’t let me. And it wouldn’t let me sign into it with my ACTUAL EMAIL. Overall it’s trash.
Why do I have to pay now 1/5
By hdjdjdiduhfhfufff
I just wanted to video call with my gf because she doesn’t have a phone and we can’t see each other because of the quarantine and this came with her tablet and her parents won’t let her download hangouts.

Beware: Removing services and not offering refunds! 1/5
By Gregory James Smith
I am disappointed to learn that Skype has removed the ability to record a personalized voicemail. As a foreign language teacher, I had used this tool in the past. After learning that this function is no longer included, I canceled my subscription within one hour. Yet, Skype refused to refund me. Pathetic!
Doesnt request microphone access 1/5
By edvol
It would be great to use, if I could use it... for the past 12 months or so it has not been requesting access to my microphone and there is no way to change it in settings via the privacy section under microphone or via the skype section under general, or anywhere else that I can find. Very frustrating
One of the best Video Apps 5/5
By A Love for the Word
Skype is one of the best video apps I have ever used in the pass year. Thanks for the hard working members on the development team and management supporting them.
Great 5/5
By tubbymummy
I’ve been using Skype for a very long time. I use it to talk to my family in England. My mom doesn’t use technology so I am able to call her landline and talk to her from where every I am. It’s been great, I love this app.
Skype is bad for anyone 1/5
By bendyking 1994
Skype is not a app to use it is a app to get taken advantage of especially when it's people who want to ruin ur life. And think that u have a fake Snapchat account so. Microsoft get rid of Skype forever
Free or not? 4/5
By Dances with fairies
I have never used Skype and I believed it was a free service. It is asking for billing info and giving monthly rates. Is it free or not?! I’m going to give you 4 stars but that could change once I get your answer.
Signed out 1/5
By Estasbuenasnuevas
After working one time , Skype signed me out. I tried to sign back in with my correct password five times but it said I needed to sign in from a browser. So I tried it with another email and it worked once, signed me out and the same thing happened. I’m too busy to keep doing this stuff so we’re using another free video chat now. No problems. We deleted Skype.
Skype app 4/5
By Shotgun frank
Just got the Skype app on my phone. I think the app works great but when I went to give it five stars as a rating it kicked me out after only taping in four stars. So far, the app is a lot better than the rating system.
Notifications on But doesn’t show. 4/5
By NathansPROPs
Been using Skype for years and the app as well but for a couple of months now, it’s not dinging me or showing me someone messaged me with the 1 in the red circle. I have all of the alerts for the notifications on all of them. And I have to manually go in the app and check to see if someone messaged me. I have heard the dings occasionally but the ringing for like voice calls works and video calls. It’s just the messages and if someone called that isn’t showing up. Anyone else experiencing this?
