They now make it like a virus app instead of making it better and coming back. It used to be absolute number 1 with millions coming in, idk if even some part of that money was directed into R/D because competitiors are way ahead of them now. Now this app is like virus when you downloaded it runs automatically when computer is on and when somebody call I get notification too loud and it just distrubs. They need to rewordk their whole model and make it good again because most people arleady forgot about skype they use zoom and teams now.

It’s one of the worst online meeting platforms available right now. I’m not going to lie, I remember using it back in the good old days for hours on end with my friends but those days are long gone… The internet has progressed a looong way since then, but skype did not. The interface still feels like it’s out of 2010 along with the lags and connection interruptions. Just use zoom or something, forget about skype

Ahha, they finally did it, and stopped the work of the company… Well, I can’t call it sad or something important, but still big news came recently and made me actually leave this review. Skype was a good online conference service back in his days. I remember I used to call it, as an alias, making it only one available option to make video calls. But, after the pandemic, I think the situation changed, more accessible and comfortable software popped up, so I switched to them. Again, it was good and only one in the beginning of this industry, but in recent years, not even close to be convenient.

Once a great application now living in the shadows... I don't like the management in here and the decisions that were made. Surely, there was a moment in time wheer skype used to be the biggest company in the sphere, and idk what did they do with all the revenue. But clearly they didn't do anyhting good. because nobody remmebers about them now. Other call providers like Teams and else took over, idk for what reason. I think they should have kept their repuation by investing more in R/D,... I don't use it now, too old.

I remember this was the very first video call platform that I ws using back when I was too young. But, developers couldn't resist the temptation to rob the company and start to slowing down its performance. Then Zoom appeared and it took all accolades of Skype and started to shine way brighter during covid times. IDK why but Skype nowadays is something from the past. I don't know if it has any active members at all, because the performance is bad, video calls quality remains on the same level as in the beginning of 2010s.

First time I downloaded it and used it was very good. If connection is good then the picture is good and stable. Plus it improved a lot since the last time I used it. Then it reminded me what I stopped used it the last time. IT is because every time I turn on my laptop, it pops up and loads. Like when people text me then when I am working on laptop I get disctrated ! This is why I think this application is good when you install and use it, and then delete it. Very annoying pops up and call sound is awful, I think they should improve a lot for me to NOT delete it.

It was a great time when I was using skype 10 years ago everywhere and especially it was very useful for communication between colleagues at work. I remember when only selected people and companies could boast of such an application and the Internet was not all over the world. By the way, most of the time I have not worked in offices and all thanks to the Skype application. However, it is a pity that the company stopped developing the application and millions of people started using other applications for video chats. Recently, I decided to come back to Skype and the user interface is almost the same as 10 years ago and there is nothing new they updated there. I hope, one day, they will revive this application!

Back in the days it was reobulationary app for video calls. Well, there was also services from Apple called facetime, but skype was used widely, it had lots of advertisement, it had enviable functionality for group calls, but he didn't manage to run through corona times. Chinese zoom took all the fame... It's a pity, cause they integrate quite modern technologies of data protection and video calls are protected as well. But it didn't bear the competition and it's a pity. Still, cool app.
