Simultaneous work of Skype on a mobile phone and on a regular computer

Question

Skype

I would like to know from those who tried it, what are the disadvantages of simultaneous operation of Skype in a mobile phone (say, HTC Desire for Android) and on a regular computer under the same login.

Does the user automatically log out from mobile Skype if they log in from a computer? Does logging out on a computer happen if you log in from a mobile phone?

If not, where do calls and messages come from?

Is the message history synchronized between two Skypes of the same user, or are the conversations that took place on the mobile phone not automatically copied to the computer? And from a computer to a mobile phone?

Answer 1

Does the user automatically log out from mobile Skype if they log in from a computer? Does logging out on a computer happen if you log in from a mobile phone?

No no.

If not, where do calls and messages come from?

Both there and there. To all open (logged in) clients.

Is the message history synchronized between two Skypes of the same user, or are the conversations that took place on the mobile phone not automatically copied to the computer? And from a computer to a mobile phone?

Everything is synchronized to where the clients are open. In closed, of course, it is not synchronized.

Answer 2

> Is the message history synchronized between two Skypes of the same user, or are the conversations that took place on the mobile phone not automatically copied to the computer? And from a computer to a mobile phone?
On the example of an iPhone and Skype: they are synchronized (that is, when Skype is running on an iPhone, the computer immediately pulls them up, even if the interlocutor has gone offline).
The problem is different: if you talked a lot on the computer (especially annoying when there were 10+ interlocutors) and at the same time Skype was running on the iPhone, all the dialogs appear there as unwatched and you need to manually open each one.

Answer 3

And if there is an incoming call with an active account on the laptop and smartphone?
