How Do I Set My Location on Skype?

Published in Technology & Software 2 mins read

You can't directly set your location on Skype. However, you can control how your location appears to others in a few ways:

1. Location Sharing:

  • Turn location sharing on or off: You can choose whether to share your location with others during calls or chats. This feature is found in your Skype settings.
  • Choose who you share your location with: You can select specific contacts or groups to share your location with.
  • Control location sharing duration: You can set a time limit for how long your location is shared with others.

2. Profile Information:

  • Update your profile with a city and country: This information appears on your Skype profile and can be viewed by other users.
  • Set your preferred language: This helps Skype to display appropriate content based on your location.

3. Location-Based Services:

  • Use Skype on a device with location services enabled: Skype can use your device's location services to provide features like location sharing and finding nearby Skype users.

Remember that Skype primarily focuses on communication, not location-based services. If you're looking for an app specifically designed to share your location, there are dedicated apps available.
