At Skype, we want to make it easier for you to stay connected with the people who matter most. We are constantly working to improve and simplify your Skype experience. Last year we launched material design for Android phones. We received great feedback on the cleaner, more polished feel of the app and how the UI added a bit of fun to your Skype conversations. Today we’re pleased to announce Skype 7.0 for Android, which brings material design to larger Android screens.
We’ve redesigned the tablet UI from the ground up, bringing a number of material design inspired elements. The new floating action button (FAB) makes it faster to send messages and start voice and video calls with friends or groups—all from the main screen of the app. The FAB changes your Skype experience dynamically to give you quick access to important features like messaging, voice, video calls and Skype bots.
Multitasking features – the new tablet design makes it easier to multitask as it comes with a multi-pane view when in landscape orientation. Simply flip your device and you’ll be able to send messages, files and check your latest conversations while on a video or voice call.
Powerful search – Skype 7.0 also brings our improved universal search to Android tablets, making it easier and quicker to find contacts, chats, groups and Skype bots, right from the main screen of the app.
Invite your friends to Skype – now, when you sign in to Skype you will see all of your device’s address book contacts displayed in your Skype contact list. If they aren’t already using Skype, it’s now easier than ever to invite them. All you need to do is click the “invite” button next to their name and they will receive a message with all the info they need to get started.
If you haven’t already downloaded the latest version of Skype for Android, you can get the update from the Play Store today. Downloading the latest version means you’ll also benefit from the latest call quality and performance improvements and enjoy the most recent Skype features—including mobile group video calling.
