Hello everyone. I have an HTC Droid Incredible and I downloaded the Skype application. Whether I sign out of it, uninstall it, delete my chat history on the Skype program in my PC, etc, my "events" or history on my actual Skype Mobile stays there. It won't show the entire conversation but still shows the last part of the conversation from each contacts I've IM'ed. This is very alarming because those conversations are just piling up under "events". Is not that they show unread. I can choose to "Close" them and they go away temporarily but they show right back up if I sign out and then sign back in. I have deleted all of my browser cookies, uninstalled the app, you name it. But the IM history stays there. Like I said, if I go to my PC and pull up Skype, there is no history there because I cleared it all out. Anyone out there that might have any ideas on how to clear this history would be my guardian angel indeed. Thanks in advance.
Same here. So annoyed by it that I am deleting my Skype account and making a new one entirely so I can be sure no history exists. I have sensitive business info on it that I typed on my work computer, and deleted all history and record of, but mobile skype keeps digging it up from somewhere. I didnt even type that on this phone and it grabs it. This tells me Skype is keeping record of all messages and never actually deleting them. Probably through an error in this app, it is grabbing things it shouldn't.
I will no longer use Skype for work, and am quite upset. I consider this a breech of privacy. I hope someone makes a stink over this and lets people know what is going on!
Do You want to delete, clean, erase or to kill the history on SKYPE?
From the general main menu of your gadget, try this:
Settings / Aplicattions / Admin Aplications / Skype / Delete data.
Y en espaņol para mis amigos paisanos, desde el menu principal de tu dispositivo:
Ajustes / Aplicaciones / Administrar aplicaciones / Skype / Eliminar Datos.
It erase everything except your contacts ok?

I felt compelled to add to this string simply because I'm wondering how many people actually try and have success with the suggestions for doing things that are posted on this or any other site. Clearing the cache does nothing (well, it did absolutely nothing for me), and deleting data erases contact and profile information on the phone (again, it did it in my case). When either or is done, the message history STILL comes back which leads me to believe that it's being stored on a Skype server somewhere. That message history was not generated by using a home PC or laptop, but by using the mobile Skype app, and so far, I have yet to find a way to delete the message history without it returning. I'm hoping someone out there has actually found a solution that works.
