Hi, When iOS 10 first came out last year and Apple made a big deal about opening up SIRI to selected third party apps like VoIP apps, I was able to go to a Contact on my phone and after I opened said contact I had the usual options there to call, Facetime (if available, text and email and also to place a call via Skype. At some point this went away and I was wondering if this is the case only on my 6S Plus or if nobody sees this anymore. It's also too bad that even though Skype can access the Contacts on the phone, it does not seem to be possible to say "Call John Smith via Skype" unless John Smith is also entered as a Skype contact with a home, work or mobile number. Hopefully this integration will work better in the future. I do use Outlook.com and I could sign into Skype with my Microsoft Id since Skype is a Microsoft product, but I found that if I do this it really messes with my Outlook.com contacts so I still prefer to sign in with my Skype Id and not link Skype to my Outlook.com profile. If anybody has more insight into this than me I'd greatly appreciate any advice you may have.
