Today I’m going to show you how to record calls on Skype. Whether you’re using a video calling app from Windows, Mac, Android, or iOS, you can make calls. You may want to record a Skype call with your loved ones as a keepsake. This is nothing new, and many people who are away from their loved ones do it. Second, you can record Skype calls for your office meetings to show to some managers or co-workers.
I have to tell you that every time you start recording a Skype call, other participants will know it. They will notify you that an active call is being recorded. Both end-users must use Skype to record calls. You can make Skype calls while the call is active. If you or someone on the call is interrupted, the recording will stop.
How To Record Skype Calls On Android, iPhone, Windows & Mac
SKYPE CALL RECORD ON WINDOWS
First, let’s take a look at the call recording process for Windows users. When you make a Skype call on Windows, it will be stored in Microsoft’s cloud storage by default.
- Run Skype on your Windows computer
- Start a video conference call with someone [you can make a regular audio call]
- Click Details (three-dot button) in the lower right corner
- From the menu, click Start
- To stop recording, click the Stop Recording option at the top of the call screen.
After stopping the recording, you will see a preview screen of the recording made during the call. Click Preview to get various options to save or share your latest Skype record.
SKYPE CALL RECORD ON MAC
This is very similar to what we did in the previous section.
