    Skype Question

    G'day Penguin! Let's get this Skype stuff sorted out. =)

    First off, Skype is not currently able to snap into the right column. You can snap other apps while talking on Skype though.

    As for the notifications, let's make sure everything is enabled in your console's settings. From the Settings menu, select Preferences, and add a check mark to the Show Skype notifications option.

    Are your call notifications not coming through at all, or have you only noticed this behavior in a particular app or game?

  3. Skype question

    When using the skype app on Xbox One, if you are skypeing with a friend and playing a multiplayer game at the same time, your voice is broadcast BOTH in Skype and in-game chat. Also, any in-game chat from other players is also passed through your headset.
    This is both very consfusing and annoying.

    I was wondering if it was possible to mute yourself, and all others in-game, whilst you use skype to talk to someone else. I realise you can just mute everyone in-game yourself, but this still means they will hear you talking to someone.

    xbox one headset and Skype

    Skype uses the kinect for a mic, so keep your game mic muted if you don't want others to hear.

    Skype game chat overlap issues

    Hey baggieboy21,



    Unfortunately if you are in a multiplayer game and skyping the others in the lobby or game will be hearing your conversation on Skype. This has been brought up once before that I have heard. The best thing I can suggest for now is that you mute the players
    on BF4 while you are Skyping.



    I will reach out and do more research on the matter and report back when we have more information to give.
