Hi Keith,

 

Joseph already answered your question, but if you follow the link below you 
will find an article on the Skype Support site with a more complete list of 
which features are and are not supported:

 

https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10914/what-features-does-skype-for-iphone-and-ipod-touch-support

 

I wouldn’t be surprised if starting a group call from the iPhone is a feature 
which is high on Microsoft’s list of priorities for Skype for iOS.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hello, Sieghard. As a sort of related question, can you make audio calls to 
more than one person at a time using Skype on the iphone? 





We Skype some folks into the morning worship service at my church on Sundays, 
and I'm not seeing a way to make more than one audio call. I welcome any 
suggestions you may have.

Hi Steve,

 

Skype is completely accessible and has been for quite some time. Yes, if you 
start a call it defaults to the earpiece just like the regular Phone app does. 
Only difference is that it behaves like the Phone app does without Voiceover 
which means it does not automatically switch to speakerphone when you hold it 
away from your ear, but the button you tap is properly labelled as “Audio, 
Earpiece button” and easy to find. Just touch right above the home key when the 
call is established and you will find the End Call button. Now swipe left about 
3 times and you are on the button, double tap it and the call will be switched 
to speaker phone button. The button will now say “Audio, speakerphone button”. 
If you double tap it again it goes back to earpiece.

 

The same goes for adding video to a voice call with another Skype user. Go left 
again from the button I described above and you will find a button called 
“Camera, no video button”. Double tap it and you get options to select the 
front or back facing camera.

 

Skype is also the only VoIP app I know of where you can use touch dialing on 
the main keypad, e.g. you don’t have to double tap each number to dial it.

The DialPad you can bring up during a call unfortunately still requires you to 
double or split tap.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hi,

Has anyone figured out an effective way to use skype?  Have we figured out a 
way to get skype from turning off the speaker when on a call?

Thx –Steve
