No matter what, Skype remains the most popular free video communication tool. With Skype, we connect with colleagues at work, friends, and our closest people. Using Skype is simple. You choose who you need, or add a new contact, press the coveted green button for a call or video call, and chat away to your heart’s content.
Skype is especially popular among our parents, grandparents, and elderly relatives. After all, older people find it very difficult to ‘befriend’ computers and various technologies. They flat out refuse to use smartphones but eagerly await our Skype calls on their old computers. But, as often happens, our communication with them turns into a quest, where we spend half an hour explaining where and what to click to get the sound or video image to appear. Familiar situation, isn’t it?
To somehow make life easier for you and your loved ones, Skype developers have added so-called hotkeys, which significantly simplify life if you’re trying to help someone on the other side of the screen. If sound or video disappears in Skype, it’s easier to suggest what to press on the keyboard than to tediously explain where and what needs to be changed in the program settings. AdmiGram.com has specially prepared a useful cheat sheet for Skype for those who constantly communicate with parents or grandparents.
