Audio alerts for Skype only?

[Dunc1n1101]

Hi folks,

My phone is always on silent due to the amount of messages from group chats etc that I receive.
However, I would like Skype to give me an audio alert, even when my phone is on silent, as my Skype messages are very important and I can't miss them when they come through.
Is there a way to do this? As I can't figure it out. I can only get an audio alert when the phone is not on silent

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks
Dunc1n

You need to put your device into 'Do Not Disturb' mode.

Then go into

Settings
Apps
Skype
Notifications

Allow to override Do Not Disturb.

Devices vary greatly, and yours may or may not show this option.

Now put your phone into Do Not Disturb mode.
Only apps that have the ability to override it can make sound.
