Re: Questions About Skype
Yes, the app is accessible with VoiceOver. This explains why it's discussed so much on this list! :-) If you just want to set up calls, video and chats between other Skype users, you don't need a paid plan. If you want a number associated with it, and you want to call and receive calls from others outside of Skype then you'll need a paid plan.

Re: Have some questions about Skype.
Hi Jerry; Skype certainly is available on IOS. And, it is completely accessible. Anthony Sent from my Verizon iPhone 5!

Re: Have some questions about Skype.
Yes, it is spelled s k y p e, and it is accessible. After typing skype into the search field, make sure you press enter on a keyboard, or double-tap the go button in the lower right corner of the on-screen keyboard.

Re: Have some questions about Skype.
Well, S'K'Y'P'E is how I found it and it does work with VO. Not tested it with mBraille yet, but that is a neat new addition. - Original Message - From: "Jerry Mader" To: Sent: Monday, July 22, 2013 3:39 AM Subject: Have some questions about Skype.

Re: Have some questions about Skype.
Yeah, it's called Skype for iPhone from Skype Communications. I found it no problem by searching for Skype. It works fine with VoiceOver. Here's what I got when I clicked the share button.
