Skype features
Skype offers us features such as:
  • Smart messages
  • Audio calls and video calls in high definition.
  • Calls to both local and international phones.
  • Record calls and live subtitles.
  • Create private conversations
  • Share items thanks to the shared screen.

Skype is available for devices such as phones, desktops, tablets, web, Alexa and Xbox and can be used in operating systems such as Windows, MacOS, Linux or Android.

If we do not have Skype this can be downloaded for free at the following link:

Being a communication application open to everyone, in many cases we can receive notifications (such as calls, messages or videos) from users we do not know or maybe we do not identify immediately. In this case it is useful to learn to block this contact in Skype to avoid being victims of an attack. But if that contact is known or trusted later, we can unlock it to start conversations or use what Skype offers us. TechnoWikis will explain in a simple way how we can block and unblock a Skype user in Windows 10..
