I must say I find Skype on of the most frustrating and confusing applications there is. A totally different and non-inutitve UI on every platform, even the iPhone and iPad are utterly different..
I am trying to help a friend setup an iPad with Skype. She has a primary Skype username but occasionally wants to use another one. The iPhone version of Skype has a sign out function (not easy to find but it is there) however the iPad does not. As far as I can see, the only way you can sign out is to change the Skype setting via the IOS Settings (not in the app like the iPhone version) to be "don't automatically sign in". This is not the same thing, as you cannot set it up so that by default it signs in to the primary account and then just change it on the odd occasion the other username is required. Does anyone know whether there is a way to do this ? She is extremely non techie and I don't want her to have to change the system settings in a non-obvious way to be able to sign out.
A further question is whether there is any way of having two Skype icons on the home screen, one for each username ?
