Edited by Thor, Rushell, Eng
Hello, and welcome to VisiHow. In this video, we are going to show you how to share your location in a message when using the Skype application on a Microsoft Lumia 535.
Steps
1
To begin, turn the phone on by pressing the power button located on the right-hand side of the phone
.
2
Once the phone is activated, we'll see the lock screen
.
Swipe the lock screen up, and this will take us to the home screen.
3
On the home screen, we need to find the Skype tile
.
It has a blue tile background, and in the middle there is the Skype logo, which is a white circle with a blue letter "S" inside. If the Skype tile has not been pinned to the home screen, swipe left and find it in the Apps menu.
4
Once the Skype tile has been located, wherever it may be, press down on it to enter the application
.
Once in the application, we need to find a contact to whom we can send our location. There are two different ways to do this.
5
First, we can go to the "recent" section
.
It says "recent" at the top in a darker blue text. On this screen, we will find all the people we recently communicated with. We can choose a contact from this screen.
6
Alternatively, we can swipe across the screen until we arrive at the "people" section
.
Now, it says "people" at the top of the screen in a darker blue text. This screen lists all of our Skype contacts. We can choose a contact from this screen.
7
To choose a contact, press down on the name
.
This will open up a personal chat with that person.
8
To send them our location in a message, we need to press the plus icon at the bottom left corner of the chat window screen
.
There is a blue circle with a white plus sign on it. Pressing down on that will bring up a menu of options.
9
Tap on the second option from the bottom in white text, which says "share location"
.
The icon to the left is an image of a pin like you might see on a map.
10
The map program will locate us first
.
11
Then a map will appear with the address of our location at the bottom of the screen
.
A blue pointer on the map will show exactly where we are.
12
In order to send this in a message, we need to press the icon in the far bottom right-hand corner
.
It has a white circle with a blue arrow inside pointing to the right.
13
Now, the area of our message is a light blue color, and it contains the map with our location in it
.
It has now been sent to our contact.
14
This concludes our tutorial on how to share a location in a message when using the Skype application on a Microsoft Lumia 535
.
