Windows 10: Improved Call Experience now for Skype Insider Preview 8.38.76.134

Brink · Jan 31, 2019

Available for iPhone, iPad, Android 6+, and Android Tablets
Version: 8.38.76.134

Over the past few months we've been working to improve the Skype calling experience on mobile devices. Today, we are proud to release these new changes and improvements to you, our Skype Insiders! With just one tap you can dismiss all of the call controls and fully experience the most essential Skype feature: a clear video call without any obstructions. This makes having a video call on the go as close an experience to the ones you have on your desktop or laptop - minimal distractions and a clear view of everyone on the call with you.

Don't worry, with just a single tap, the controls you need the most are front and center, and everything else is just a simple tab away in the newly redesigned "..." menu. This new menu allows you to access all our useful features, like call recording and subtitles, all while keeping your video call simple and clutter free.

With this update, you will see that the speaker and audio device button is now in the upper right, next to your own video; this makes it easy for one handed audio device switching while on the go. Your video preview also got an update of it's own. We've made it bigger in one-to-one video calls, so you can see yourself better - especially on larger screened mobile devices.

Please let us know what you think of the new mobile call experience!

Skype Insider Preview - Skype for Windows 10 update is here

Hello Skype Insiders!

We're pleased to announce the Skype for Windows 10 Insider Update is here!

The Skype for Windows 10 update brings all the latest and greatest Skype capabilities to Windows 10 users. Here's a sample of what's new:

Best in class calling experience - We've added several new calling features to make Skype's calling experience even better than before:

Flexible group call canvas - Customize your group call experience and decide who appears in the main call canvas. Simply drag and drop people between call canvas and the overflow ribbon to select who you want to focus on.

Take snapshots - Use snapshots to capture images of important moments within a call. Snapshots makes sure you never forget important memories like your grandkid's funny antics or crucial information like the content that's been screenshared during a meeting.

Easily start screensharing - We've made sharing your screen during calls even easier. Look for the ability to share your screen with the top level call controls.

New layout - Based on your feedback, we've made your contacts easier to access and view.

Customizable themes - Choose a color and theme for your Skype client through or application settings.

And much more - Improvements to our media gallery, notifications panel, and @mentions experience and more!

In addition to all the latest enhancements, with this update you can expect more frequent improvements to your Skype for Windows 10 experiences going forward. Please visit our Skype for Windows Insiders FAQ for more information.

Thank you for all you do to support Skype! We look forward to hearing about your experience.
