How to make calls on Skype

Skype offers you several ways to get in touch with other people. If that person also uses Skype, you can chat anytime once you have added them as a contact. Alternatively, it is possible to talk on the phone with your contacts, both individually and in a group.

1. On Skype, you have two ways to talk on the phone with a person. Once you have added the person as a contact, you can click on them and call them using the "phone" icon. The call is then made via your Internet connection.
2. A group call is created by calling a person and then inviting other participants to the conversation via the plus sign.
3. Optionally, you can also call a person via their mobile or landline number. For this, however, it is first necessary to load credit on your Skype account.
4. After that, select the "dial pad" via the corresponding icon. Now select the contact you want to call. Sie können dies tun, indem Sie direkt die Nummer in die Tastatur eingeben. Anschließend starten Sie das Telefonat.
5. Haben Sie die Person bereits in der Kontaktliste, dann wählen Sie diese darüber aus und wählen Sie als Rufnummer die Festnetz- oder Mobilfunknummer aus.
