Skype for Windows 8 v2.6 is available for free now - note that users require Windows 8.1 to run the app. First, Skype has promised to make sure that notifications will only be received on the device actively being used, bringing an end to the annoying chorus of chimes as a new message is relayed across all the user’s logged-in devices.Īlso planned is keeping the user’s Favorites contact list in sync, thereby saving time and hassle having to recreate it each time Skype is installed on a new platform. More improvements for multi-device usage have also been outlined going forward. Not only does this make it easier to stay up to date, it also allows users to quickly and easily review past chat histories on any device, not just the one that the chat originally took place on. This is achieved by implementing push notifications of any updates from one device automatically to the others. Synchronizing chat history and read messages has also been added to Skype for Windows 8 - this feature is part of the "enhanced Skype chat experience" that began rolling out to other platforms last month. This means in practical terms that users can leave their Windows 8 devices running Skype in the background without becoming annoyed by calls continuing to ring even after being picked up on another computer or mobile.
