Skype app: send pictures - how it works
You can also send pictures to your friends in the Skype app. In the iOS and Android version of the app, however, this works differently - we show both ways.
iOS Skype: Send photo on the contact page
- Tap "Contacts" on the taskbar.
- Select the contact you want to send a photo to.
- Tap "More" in the middle of the contact page.
- Select "Send photo", you can choose an existing picture from your photo app or add a new one directly to Skype.
- You may then be asked if Skype can access your photos. Answer yes and choose an image to send.
Send picture in Android Skype
- In the Android version of Skype, you open a chat window with the contact you want to send a photo to.
- In this chat window, tap the small plus sign in the bottom left corner.
- Select "Take a picture" or if you want to select a photo from your gallery "Send file".
- If you send an existing picture, you must then select "Gallery" and mark a photo.
Deleting message histories is also no problem in the Skype app and makes your chat clear again.
