Answering Skype Calls Automatically

By Ricky Buchanan on July 30, 2007

Icon for SkypeFor those who use Skype and have trouble answering calls quickly enough, you can set Skype to answer for you automatically.

To do this, open the preferences (from the Skype menu) and select the “Calls” button from the top row. Check the box for “Auto-answer Calls”. To return to answering calls manually, just uncheck the same box.

In the “Advanced” section of the preferences, there is a check box for automatically pausing iTunes during calls, which also works very well.

Not having to dive for all the right commands when I get a Skype call makes everything much easier!

    You can also forward the calls on – this is great if you are on holiday but still want to appear to your clients that you are at work!
