Skype notification issue

[RickG16]

When I'm on my laptop and signed into Skype, I get notifications for messages (bottom right of screen).

 

If I am out and only have my mobile phone, even if it is signed into Skype, I do not always get the notifications for messages.

 

Any ideas how I can solve this?

 

I have checked all the settings on the app and my phone.

If you're using an android device then you'll a lot of complaints about the notification system not always working as expected, with many user forums listing the issue.

 

Most users will continue to hear incoming call and incoming SMS/MMS notifications, but secondary applications, like social media or peer-to-peer apps, just stop announcing when not running as the foreground app.

 

One 'fix' is to remove and re-download the app. The other is to completely reset the phone and reload the apps. Neither 'fix' is very appealing.
