NotSkypeBeta Release

Frequently asked questions

What is NotSkype?

NotSkype is an independent revival project that aims to rebuild services for Skype and other old chat applications to work again.

Is this the original Skype service?

No. NotSkype does not restore the original servers used by Skype, instead providing replacement services to restore Skype's functionality.

Can I sign in with my Microsoft/Skype account?

No. NotSkype uses our own account system, completely separate from Microsoft.

I can't sign in on (old operating system)!

For WinXP-Vista: ensure only TLS 1.2 (or minimally 1.0) is enabled, and that your root certificates are updated.

Is NotSkype open source?

Code for many components can be found on our GitHub.
