I regularly Skype Canada each week and am experiencing sound feedback during the video calls using Skype. We cannot use FaceTime as my daughter does not have access to this app. Any advice would be appreciated.
iPad, iOS 6.0.1
Roger,
i have just moved from old iPad Air to new 12.9 iPad Pro. Skype worked very well on the old tablet. On the pro, it Has unbearable (for the person on the other end) feedback.
I suspect ect this is a function of there being 4 speakers and one being right next to the microphone. Is there a way to disable to top speakers during Skype calls? And if not how can I get 1this feedback to Skype or apple?
thanks,
scott
I have the exact same problem, any suggestions anyone?
Some feedback is inevitable when you are using a speaker as the microphone will pick it up. Skype handles tehis with varying degrees of success by reducing the incoming level while you are talking. Sometimes reconnecting will improve it, but the only way of eliminating it completely is to use headphones. Otherwise just keep the loudspeaker as quiet as you can manage.
Dear Roger
Many thanks for your reply. Now I know the reason I will adjust as you suggest. Is it possible to get small mini speaker for the iPad that I could use as usual both my husband and myself are present so using headphones is not advisable.

If you can plug headphones into an iPad with a standard 3.5mm stereo jack then there are plenty of small speakers, though they usually come in pairs. They are usually described as computer speakers.
Hi Roger, ok many thanks. I will have a look for some. Regards Lorraine
