This has been a cause of angst among user who purchase Skype as an alternative to a mobile phone because Microsoft will not refund any purchases even for users who discover this missing feature only after purchasing multi-year contracts. Chat history along with the message status will be synchronized across all user devices supported by Skype whenever the user signs in with the same Skype account.Īlthough Skype allows sending SMS messages, it is not possible to receive SMS messages on Skype so users need a different way to receive responses to the messages they send using Skype. Messages sent to offline users are stored on Skype servers and will be delivered to their recipients as soon as they come online on Skype. Skype allows users to send instant messages to other users in their contact list.
