To search for a contact:

  1. Start Skype.
  2. In the All Contacts list, tap the search box and enter the contact’s name, Skype Name or phone number.

Your contacts are arranged in lists. When you start Skype, you will see the All Contacts list.

To view all your contact lists, including All Contacts, Online Contacts, iPad Contacts and Skype Contacts, tap the list button next to the search box. If you have created customized lists on your computer or other device, they will be shown here, too.
