Can I use Skype in my browser?
If you do not want to install Skype on your PC or only use it briefly on a third-party PC, this also works in the browser. We'll show you how it's done.
Use Skype in the browser: Skype for Web
For "Skype for Web" you only need a current and current browser. Among other things, the service supports well-known programs such as Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Internet Explorer.
- Open the Skype for Web website and log in with your Skype account.
- You can now use Skype like you would on a computer. If you start a call, additional software is offered for download. You have to run this little tool on your computer.
- Skype for Web is currently still in the final development phase. Not all users can yet use Skype for Web (see picture). The additional software for telephony is also to be abolished.
