The rebuilt Skype makes chats more expressive and personalized, with the app now offering countless ways to share moment along with creating and playing with the people you care about the most.

Skype offers deeper connections

You are now able to show off your personal style by customizing Skype with your favorite palette of colors. When you’re in a conversation, make sure that your voice is heard and your emoticon is seen by tapping on the action icon next to any message or video call to express your feelings in colorful ways

Check out the new Highlights feature

Highlights allows you create a highlight reel of your day with photos and videos. After you post a one, your friends will get the opportunity to react to it by using emoticons or by jumping into a conversation. Like this, you can now turn talk into action with group discussions, bots, and add-ins. New bots and add-ins will be added to the app to make your Skype experience more robust and richer. Many users criticized the new Highlights feature, suggesting that Microsoft’s engineers should have used their creativity instead of adding a series of features available on other social media apps. Skype users also say that not every communication app should be revamped to appeal to teenagers.

The newest Skype began its roll out to mobile devices and will also come to desktops. It will first be available on Android devices and will be released gradually over the future weeks.
