Microsoft is currently testing a new Skype Preview App for Android Devices. Skype’s Android App is a well designed app with a bunch of new features and is fairly fast and smooth for a Beta App.
Microsoft’s Skype Android App is pretty similar to the Windows 10 Skype Preview App and is not a fully featured app just yet. The company has released the new Skype Preview App on Android which is available for users who are part of the Skype Insiders Program.
The new Skype App is a completely revamped Skype with new icons, new layout for the app. If any of our users are using the Windows 10 Skype App they will be able to notice the new layout and icons which are similar to the Windows 10 App.
The Skype Android App is a fully featured App on similar grounds to its Windows 10 App but Microsoft has added the Bing integration into the conversations along with a dedicated tab on the chat UI which will easily let you search anything on the web.
The company has also integrated Giphy which lets you share GIF’s in conversations easily. The company is preparing to add more new features in the coming updates for the Android App. Microsoft has also added a new “react” feature that lets you react to a message via emoji’s in a conversation which is pretty useful for users involved in Group Chats .
The new Skype Preview App is currently available for download and you can get it if you are an Skype Insiders via the below link.
