Note that, although it says "Alpha" it works much better and has more features than the "Current" version found on Ubuntu 16.04 and previous versions. I have uploaded an image where you can also see a group of 8 I was chatting on while also having the option to upload (Using Ubuntu 16.04) The options you get are "Send Photos and Files" and "Send Contacts".
You can send text, images and other normal stuff done on the chat (Be it 1 to 1 or group chat).
With that said, the Skype for Linux (Alpha Version) will work (Confirmed by me). You can voice talk, but typing something or having actual access to the chat will not work. However, if you block or remove these suggested contacts, Skype won't keep suggesting you add them.Skype group chats will not work on the current version of Skype (It is a known bug reported on their forums for Linux users & other places). This is because we haven’t confirmed that you know one another, so you’ll need to send an invite before you can chat and call on Skype.Īs you add contacts to your Outlook address book, you'll start to see those contacts suggested in Skype. When you tap a suggested contact in your People list, you might see a button to Connect on Skype. Under How people find me, toggle the Automatically add friends option off.Click Settings on the sidebar of the Skype plugin.Don't worry - we didn't send invites to them, and you can remove them if you'd like by deleting individual contacts or turning the feature off in your Skype settings. These suggested contacts are people who are in your other address books who are also on Skype. Note that this feature is being rolled out gradually, so don't worry if you don't see it right away. If you chose to automatically add friends, you might notice that when you visit your People list, you'll see suggested contacts that weren’t already in your Skype contact list. You will be prompted to sign in to the chosen address book to complete the process.Click the address book you would like to add contacts from and we'll take you through the steps to add them.You will be prompted to add your phone number, if you haven't already done so. Scroll down to the bottom of your contact list and click Add Friends.Click Contacts on the sidebar of the Skype plugin.When you use the newest version of Skype for, you will have the option to automatically add people from your address book who are also on Skype.
