Free Skype Calling on The iPhone?

I'm wondering since Skype is an online application and therefore uses internet resources, if I can make calls through Skype for free?
I wouldn't think this to be a problem since Skype is easily available online and the iPhone has Safari. Then i'm assuming I'd be able to make a call through Skype thanks to the fact the iPhone has a microphone.
I've been watching videos on YouTube of people doing this through some site called "SoonR".
I would think this all does not break any rules while using the iPhone, I don't want to break any rules here.
But I see this as a great thing to do: making skype calls to landlines and mobiles through my Skype account.
Obviously this makes me ask the only question I need to ask: Would making Skype calls through my iPhone use my ATT minutes?
*I'd assume not since I'm using Skype through my Safari Internet.

SOONR actually calls you back on your IPHONE to complete the call, therefore your are using yor minutes. I use SOONR for international calls - then I only get "charged" as local minutes

    Can I use Skype on my iPhone4 to make calls with someone using Skype on their PC computer?

    Yes. You can even make video calls over 3G.

  • How do I make a hands free call with the iphone 4s?

    How do I make a hands free call with the iphone 4s?  I have a bluetooth car device and when I try to talk through it (as I did with my old phone) to call someone it does not work.  so far only hte last person called is redialed.

    That is a carrier-based service. So first you have to make sure your service contract includes that feature.
    It usually also includes Call Hold. So you call the first party, put them on hold, call the second, then reactivate the first. But only if your carrier allows you to.

  • People cannot hear me at the start of our call on the Iphone 4s?

    People cannot hear me at the start of our call on the Iphone 4s. What could be the problem? IOS? Home button? Lag when I swipe?
    ONLY when I am getting a call, I will swipe the home button and the awnser option will lag a little bit, therefore the caller cannot hear me right away. After saying "Hello" the second time, everything returns to normal. I have tried everything and I am not sure what the problem is? It cannot be hardware since Skype, Memo, Facetime, all work perfectly. Everyone on these threads has the problem from both sides, while I only have it when I receave calls. I have tried it with head-phones and it does not fix the problem. What can I do? Will it be fixed in the upcoming IOS?
    Although its a small problem that doesn't effect other parts of my phone, I would like to find someone who faces the same problem.
    Thanks

  • I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic.  And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4.  However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic.

    I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic.  And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4, so it appears my headset mic is fine.  I can also use voice activated dialing, although it fails miserably interpreting numbers.  However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic.   I just get barely audible static.  Any suggestions?   Thanks.

    Hello, did you ever get an answer to your question? I just picked up a Jawbone Era and using on an iPhone 4s running 5.0.1. Seems to work fine on regular calls, but not on the built in Voice memos application. It worked fine on my older Jawbone Icon, but haven't tested on the 4s or iOS 5.
    Thanks!

  • How do I block messages and calls on the iPhone 5?

  • How do i stop notifications from ringing while im on a phone call on the iphone 4s

    how do i stop notifications from ringing while im on a phone call on the iphone 4s?

    Basel,
    I'm not sure why these folks are having trouble understanding your request. I will dumb it down for them. Is there an option to have the iPhone only provide me with notifications when I'm not on the phone. Having my $800ish phone buzz and interrupt my phone conversation (after all primary function of this iPhone is being a phone) to let me know one of my Facebook friends has challenged me to a game of words with friends. I don't want my iPhone to not notify me at all. It can notify me after the call (again primary function) is complete. Going through menus and turning off notifications all together is absolutely silly. I wouldn't want to have to navigate through the menus and turn them off and then on an then off just to make or receive a phone call. Could you imagine answering you phone with, "hey, just wait I have to turn my notifications off so I can have this conversation." every time you wanted to talk on the phone.
    So yeah. Again not sure why they were having trouble with understanding you. I hope this helps clarify it for them.

  • When someone calls all the IPhones in the house ring, what is wrong?

    When someone calls all the IPhones in the house ring, what is wrong.

    You share the same Apple ID and in iOS 8 there is a new feature, which if you didn't share the same ID, you can answer a call on another device if one is another room as long as they are both on iOS 8.  To stop this, go to Settings > Facetime and turn off iPhone Cellular Calls.  That will stop this for you.

  • Why can't I record calls with the iPhone?

    Hi,
    Why can't I record calls with the iPhone? Every other mobile can! That's quite pitty ...!

    Nonsense. There are many places where you are not allowed to take photos or video but those functions are included. Apple assumes no responsibility for them. Apple would not be responsible for managing the recordings on the phone either. It's most likely because Apple is located in California and in THAT particular state, both parties have to be informed of the recording. Most states do not require that. If Apple were located in another state (e.g. Alaska) there would be no restriction.
    All the apps that record calls store those recordings in their servers and charge you a fee. It would be preferable to have the calls stored only on the phone so no one else could access them. The iPhone has the technological capability; we have just been restricted from having this functionality without paying a 3rd party.

  • My iPad is receiving the phone calls that the iPhone under the same iCloud account is receiving, how do I stop/prevent this?

    I have an older iPad that we use at my office for Pandora. My iPhone is connected to the same iCloud account as my iPhone is & once in a while my iPad will receive a phone call, not a FaceTime call, from one of my contacts that's trying to call me. It will say the contact's name up at the top like usual, it plays my iPhone ringtone, says "Slide to Answer" but also beneath that it says "from my iPhone." I still receive the phone call on my iPhone but I also receive it on my iPad & I'd obviously like it to stop. Can anybody help me out?

  • Making a call with the iphone headphones

    I know that you can answer calls through your headphones that came with the iphone but is it possible to make a call through it using the microphone and saying a command to call someone?

    What I meant was while Im listening to my ipod on my iphone, is it possible to use the button on the headset and make a voice call from my headphones? I know I can do voice calling from the phone itself but I was wondering if you could do it through your headphones like push the button and say call whoever in the microphone and it would do it.
