[Description]
Skype is a telecommunications application software that specializes in providing video chat and voice calls from computers, tablets and mobile devices via the Internet to other devices or telephones/smartphones. Users can also send instant messages, exchange files and images, send video messages and create conference calls.
Much of the service is free but users require Skype Credit or a subscription to call landline or mobile numbers.
