Hi Jonathan and Donna,

 

I did Google this and will have to do some more digging since yesterday I 
didn’t have so much time. But it does indeed appear as if this feature has also 
been removed for now. I totally agree with you, Jonathan, that this is really a 
vital feature and it should be considered essential. Even on my PC I can opt to 
show all my Outlook contacts in Skype and I really hope that a lot of other 
people will realize that it is no longer possible to access one’s iPhone 
contact list and raise a storm. Interestingly enough if I go to Privacy and 
check which apps have access to my Contacts Skype is still listed. Of course 
this might be the case because I upgraded, I probably see what happens if I 
delete Skype and reinstall it. I will report anything I find regarding this.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Subject: Re: Deleting Recent Chat/Call history in Skype

 

Hi

 

I'm wondering this as well. I'm new to Skype. I have searched the app, but 
can't find a way to import my contacts. I have no time or patience to add my 
contacts individually.

Hi Sieghard, in your reading, have you found out whether integration with the 
iPhone contacts has gone or is inaccessible? Not being able to call your 
contacts from within Skype makes the app a lot less useful.

Hello List,

 

I did a bit of checking on various Skype forums and there is currently indeed 
no way to clear/delete chat history, recent calls and so on. In one thread 
somebody from Skype replied to many rather unhappy messages that they are 
looking to bring this back in a future update.

 

One thing that works nicely is to swipe between People, Recents and Favorites 
instead of finding the buttons at the top. You can double tap and hold either 
on the left side of the phone and swipe across to the right after the triple 
tone or double tap and hold on the right and swipe across to the left. This 
will smoothly and seamlessly move between screens, just touch the screen after 
to see if you are in People, Recents or Favorites.

 

For those who didn’t see my previous post as to how you can remove contacts, 
here it is again:

 

1.       Double tap on the contact you want to remove

2.       Double tap on the “More” button at the bottom right

3.       Double tap on the “Block” button from the menu which pops up (the 
other option is “Add to Favorites”

4.       In the next menu you have the options “Block”, “Block and Remove” and 
“No” (the latter is if you change your mind and want to do nothing).

 

Regards,

Sieghard
