Skype for Android redesigned with new tablet interface, improved video call quality at up to 4x the resolution
Microsoft today announced a big update to Skype for Android, with a particular focus on tablets. You can download the new version now directly from Google Play.
Android tablet users, including those who have the Kindle Fire HD or Kindle Fire HDX tablets, have received a new Skype interface. The company says the app now puts conversations first, displaying your most recent calls and chats.
Also worth noting that the new version brings “all the quality and performance advancements that the total rewrite of version 4.0 brought to phone users.” Furthermore, all Android users will enjoy improved video call quality that will result in up to four times the resolution of previous versions, with enhanced clarity and frame rates (assuming good network conditions).
