Skype on mobile phones question....

[twinkles**stars]

Which app did you download as there is more than one when I looked in Play Store? Thanks

if you are going to talk to someone, why not just use your mobile phone to talk to them? if you need video, its probably a personal choice as to which one best suits your needs. try them until you find one that you like.

My daughter is going overseas, the children are staying with me. This way they can see and talk to her while she's away.

Just get Skype.  I have it on my phone and have used it a couple of times with minimal hassle..

Do you want it for your daughter's OS phone or yours?

It depends if you want to use the phone data sevice or your wifi data service or both.

You can use it on ipad and comp as well as phone.

I have a Samsung Galaxy3, my daughter has the 4 Lis:)

Yes computer is fine but phone is a bit of an issue. I have downloaded it twice and it doesn't work correctly. Play Store have a few differebt apps hence my question

Twink, skype is a great way to communicate with someone overseas. The best way is over the wifi capability of the phone. When overseas the most economical way is to take a mobile hotspot overseas and get a prepaid sim card for it.

Then tether the phone or pad to the mobile prepaid hot spot or the hotel wifi.

A lot of places to stay have free WIFI for residents on their stay
