.@HuaweiEU My camera swap button doesn't work anymore on my P30 Lite. When I try to take a photo and swap the camera, the Camera App closes. When I try to use it in Messenger, Skype or WhatsApp, it simply doesn't change the camera. Help?

@lisybabe that's a useful idea. Skype let's you call regular phone numbers, but I don't think it links with their video service. You can merge calls on mobile phone - call your friend, then the energy company, then merge. But that's voice only. Not video.

@itswhitneymeyer @rgay It just plain works better for me. I've no had no problems with GM, but Skype was always worthless, and Zoom always seems to have lag/dropping for me.

@NikiKovacs @motomatters @KTM_Racing I do really hate zoom, and so much used to cisco. The thing is that Webex is gonna need more bandwidth and could be a problem at circuits. Skype should be an alternative.

@robman50a Several possible reasons. First thing I would do, though, is try s different video chat (zoom, skype, etc) and see if the problem is there also.

@Grinzing03 @Channel4News I do too & haven't seen them in almost 3 years. But it's too risky now & I accept the tradeoff; many others do too. Skype etc not ideal but do help with contact Unless UK & Europe, for that matter, accept short term annoyance of no int'l travel, we won't get control of this.

@Balancement @Microsoft They suspended my Skype account for no reason 3 weeks ago...hellish trying to get a response from ten different customers “Service” reps over weeks. Yes, Kafka stars in a remake of “Catch 22”. (And I need Skype because there’s no mobile phone service on this island in Fiji.

@jedicamgirl @Chlo_Cassidy Skype definitely has its technological issues. But other than idiots thinking that Skype automatically means they can pay without tokens, it’s pretty secure. Just don’t give them any leeway when they ask if they can pay with PayPal instead.

@MisterLeaves I wouldn’t be opposed to having a 1 on 1 conversation. You will, of course, have to ask me again the day of the conversation, but only because Skype advises you to do so to “avoid legal issues.”

@DaveVescio People think they're climbing the walls cus of being locked down, stuck at home now. Imagine if it was in the 90s 😬 That would've truly driven us insane. No broadband. No smartphones. So no apps like Skype, Zoom or social media. Most folks (in UK) only had 5 TV channels.

Been WFH this week so it's easier to help sort funeral arrangements during the day. Not long had a work skype meeting. QUESTION to people frequently WFH, is turning a camera on mandatory or am I missing something?

We decided to keep it in-person, but w/ her & her boyfriend calling in online.. we set up a webcam and mics etc, so we'd all be in the one place & they'd Skype in. Personally, I find it super difficult bc of auditory processing issues, but I deal with it & don't complain...

I don't know if it's the jaws or skype... though I'm beginning to think it's skype since my jaws doesn't freeze, it literally freezes each and everytime I switch conversations. Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas on how to solve it/
