Microsoft Filth Skype gets worse day by day. The app UI is completely unusable. Call quality is terrible - even on the fastest connection. They are unable to notify you when credit gets low so you are just cut off when credit runs out. Lazy, filthy Microsoft scum are unable to think rationally or act decently.

It used to be a really good app It used to be a really good app, but the moment it became a part of Microsoft everything went wrong. First the interface, which is unbearable, then weird policies like security policy which no-one can understand and lastly user management, where you never know if you are looking in your phone book and looking for a Skype user ... Relatively simple and easy task, isn't it? But Microsoft (again) made it totally wrong - like everything.

What happened to Skype? This used to be a well functioning phone app that was a reasonably priced alternative worldwide when other phone services failed. Now it seems to be a Social Media wannabe that can't place a phone call. You can't even edit a contact entry. If MS wants to get into the Social Media game why didn't you just create an app instead of ruining this one? Weren't apps your core business?

In app purchase does not work I purchased an international call subscription on Skype and paid in app via Apple Pay. Apple took the payment but the subscription never came through. I’ve contacted both Apple and Skype multiple times about this and each point to the other as the responsible party. Apple refuses to refund the money and Skype refuses to activate the subscription as they say Apple has not sent through the required information. I have never had such a disappointing experience with an in-app purchase. This is outright fraud on the part of Skype.

I just downloaded the new version and didn't like it. I just downloaded the new version, December 2023, version 8.11. I use Skype daily and I'm largely happy with it but this new version promptly changed my name and my Skype ID and lost the funds I have against my account. Fortunately it installed alongside the old version so I was able to uninstall it promptly and revert to the more reliable older version. Stop trying to improve something that's fine as it is.
