Say hello to Skype for Symbian
Skype for Symbian
Over 200 million more of you around the world can now download a great, full-featured Skype app to your mobile phones. It’s ready to download now from our website or from the Ovi store, and it does everything you’d expect a great Skype app to do. Mark explains all in the video above, but in short, you can:
- make free Skype-to-Skype calls to other Skype users anywhere in the world
- save money on calls and texts with our low rates
- send and receive instant messages to and from individuals or groups
- share pictures, videos and other files
- receive calls to your online number
- see when Skype contacts are online and available to call or IM
- easily import names and numbers from the phone’s address book
You can call, text, IM and everything else whether you’re on a 3G or WiFi connection, so when you’re abroad, just pop in a local SIM card with an unlimited data plan – or find a WiFi zone – and you’ll be able to avoid those pesky roaming charges.
Skype for Symbian will run on any Nokia smartphone using Symbian^1, the latest version of the Symbian platform. Soon, we’ll update the app so that it works on Symbian mobiles from other manufacturers, including Sony Ericsson.
