Skype Android now optimized intended for tablets.

Skype swiftly brought its Android app up to speed with a modern UI when Ice Cream Sandwich was published, but the app hasn’t been optimized to the bigger screens… until today. Skype 3. 0 for Android introduces a tablet program for those of us who want to do our things with a bigger device.


The app worked quite fine for many, but there’s nothing like an app that makes proper use epidermis screen real estate provided by tablets. In traditional Skype fashion the UI can be a cross breed between Android’s Holo UI and Skype’s own bluish type, and both come together to make a great looking and feeling experience.

Other changes include to be able to sign in with any Microsoft account. Since the company now owns its IP marketing and sales communications company we expected some type of Microsoft integration to come along eventually. There’s also improved audio along with a host of bug treatments that Skype unsurprisingly chose to not go into much aspect about.

Go ahead and give it a shot on the tablet by downloading it from your Google Play Store. Skype has come further since the first model of its Android app was published and we’re happy to determine its development team taking all issues with Android as serious because any developer should.
