(at least I'm now showing as being "Away" - instead of "Online") You must switch to Skype, tap on your profile, at the very bottom manually do "sign out".
shutting down the Android device also is not influencing the online status.
quitting the Skype app is not properly terminating / signing off. no heartbeat feature implemented in Skype. I'm not transitioning to "offline" state. So it means: even though Skype no longer appears in the task manager it seems to be running as a secret, invisible background task!?Īnd after step 4 the behaviour is the same as in Scenario A. When a contact sends me a chat message it pops up. So i was searching for an answer how to configure Skype to automatically log off / quit when the Android device is shutting down?īut now it turned out the situation is even worse:Īfter step 3 I'm still listed as being "online". Initially I thought this symptom would occur in case i forgot to manually quit the Skype app before shutting down the device. So even after 1 day my contacts are trying to call me - even though the device is powered off.
Strangely enough there seems to be no heartbeat feature implemented in Skype. My contacts are still seeing me as being "online".
