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.

Skype is great product for audio calls Skype is great product for audio calls when the group of participants is not too large otherwise its gives audio voice issues. It is an average for video communications. Skype works nice for one to one communication but bad for more number of participants.

Good for audio calls I'm satisfied with the quality of audio calls. I don't use video though. Skype comes in handy if you have a remote job and need to collaborate with your colleagues. As for other purposes, the features may not be enough. For example, if I was giving private or group classes, I would probably prefer a video conferencing platform instead. But it's up to you, I remember Skype language lessons were extremely popular before the pandemic. Anyway, what you definitely can't do on Skype is send large files. There's a limit of 300MB.

I wish I can give Skype 0 stars I wish I can give Skype 0 stars. I have paid for credit which I have not received. This has happened several times and only after contacting them do I get my credit added to my account but on this occasion, they are saying they cannot see my credit as paid when it has been taken from my bank and I received a receipt as proof of payment. I contacted them again and they are saying they have applied for my money to be refunded. They never applied for it to be taken!!! Am done. Skype, you are dishonest and all bad deeds will return to you two fold.

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.
