Although Microsoft announced the arrival of universal apps a year ago, even its own products seem to have trouble adopting this new app system. The next product to have a universal app will be Skype.
As stated by Microsoft, the team is working on a universal app that works the same on computer as on mobile or tablet, with very specific functions that will allow any user to use it without complications due to the platform on which they use it.
The universal Skype app will have some absences that will be fixed over time
Thus, the Microsoft team for the messaging service has reported that the new universal app will allow make video calls, share photos, receive call notifications, and join group chats. We know that it is not enough, which is why Microsoft has stated that after the launch of the universal app, the team will work on bringing group messaging and video calls to the app as well as the screen sharing function and other functions. We also know that the app will focus on having a single screen, that is, Skype will no longer have multiple screens to work, thus meeting one of the demands of Skype users.
For the creation of this universal app, the team is taking into account all the requests and suggestions of the users in order to improve and make the new app and the Skype service more attractive, even so the app is not yet on the market Y we will have to wait to see if it is true that Skype collects the requests of its users or skips any. Also, do not forget that Skype is multiplatform so it will be necessary to see what Microsoft will do with the versions for other operating systems, that is, for Mac OS and Linux, Could it be that they become better apps than the universal Skype app? What do you think?
