Making calls through Skype

Please investigate making Skype calls from Bluetooth headsets connected to  the Ionic.

Wi-Fi connections are everywhere and getting Skype voice calls through the Ionic would negate need for LTE.

Hi @JosephW thanks for sharing this idea. This isn't currently possible with the way that WiFi works on Ionic but is a great idea, so I've changed this to 'future product' label so we can keep this on the radar for the Product and Engineering teams.

 

Please keep voting if this feature is of interest to you! Thanks for sharing.

For a connection to WiFi, you will need the phone to make the connection, with no web page to accept and the ionic needs to be charging.
