Find the person you want to call and make sure that they are online. If they are, you’ll see this status icon
 next to their name.
If you see one of these icons
  , it means the person is on a mobile or other device, so you won’t be able to video call them, but you can make a voice call with a little Skype Credit or a subscription. |

Click the contact. You will see their details on the right side of the window.

Click the Video call button.
The screen changes color, a call bar appears near the bottom of the screen and you’ll hear ringing until the other person answers.
