Skype launched in 2003 and became one of the most widely used platforms for free video and voice calls over the internet during the 2000s and 2010s. Its incoming call ringtone became a shared sound for a generation of users who worked, studied, and kept in touch online. Microsoft acquired Skype in 2011, and versions from that era, including the 2015 call sound, circulated widely in videos and memes. The ringtone remains in use today as a nostalgic shorthand for an incoming online call.

The Skype incoming call ringtone from 2015, a looping melodic chime that instantly signals a video call is waiting to be answered online now.
This is the classic Skype incoming call sound, a bright electronic ringtone built from a short looping melodic phrase. The tone rises and repeats with a clean, synthetic chime that feels urgent without being harsh, instantly recognizable to anyone who used Skype for video calls. Hearing it creates an immediate sense of anticipation, as if a friend, family member, or coworker is waiting on the other end. Creators often use that built-in recognition to trigger nostalgia, set up a fake call gag, or mark the exact moment a conversation is about to start.
