    Skype keeps crashing on Xbox One

    So what's the deal with the Skype app on Xbox One?

    So I've used the Skype app b4 with no problem, now earlier today the app crashed out of nowhere. Now no amount of rebooting/power cycling the console or deleting/reinstalling the app will help. Also snapping Skype does not work either. While reinstalling
    the app the setup process goes by smoothly but once I get signed in, the app crashes back again to the dashboard.

    Skype app will not launch.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the response but this is of no help to me as i have already carried out the following steps to try and resolve this concern myself prior to posting in this forum.

    -I deleted the app, restarted my console, reinstalled the app, attempted to launch the app, same error after signing into the Skype app it comes up with a error skype currently not available. For the record my sign in details are correct.

    -Then i tried uninstalling the skype app again, restarted my xbox one, reset all the settings to factory on my console, reinstalled the Skype app, still comes up with error message skype currently unavailable.

    Workout with sister in another city

    Hi jerky093,

    Thanks for your post. The Skype app allows you to connect with other people directly on the console no matter what platform they are on. This means using Skype on the Xbox One can allow you to connect with your sister directly from the console. For more
    information on the Skype app, check out this article:
    Skype for Xbox One    .

    I hope this helps.

    Connection dropping out every 10 minutes

    Are you using your Microsoft Account to sign in to Skype on XB1 or are you using your usual Skype Name and Password?

    You can link your Skype/MSA together by going to Skype.com - I will post a few links that can hopefully be helpful to you.

    Hope this helps you! Reply if you need more help.

    Kind Regards,

    Can't Snap Skype.....

    Currently Skype for Xbox One doesn't support snapping. Check the section "I’m missing a feature in Skype for Xbox One. Where is it?" in the FAQ here:

    support.xbox.com/.../skype-faq

    You can snap other apps like IE, Music and Video to the running Skype app though.
