Let's see what changes have Microsoft introduced in the updated Skype 6.0. The updated version also promises a simplistic experience for Skype users with easy interactive controls that will enable the users to open and close conversations with ease. Microsoft has also introduced a bevy of new features like search functionality on the iPad that now comes to parity with the iPhone. This will create familiarity across both platforms and adapting to the change will be easy. More details on visual changes will be disclosed later on. Skype 6.0 has marched passed the Windows theme and adopted a layout in favor of iOS and Android. However, Microsoft has rolled out the latest version today, Skype 6.0 which is available on iOS and Android both. The upgrade was packed with both old and new features that merely made the app looked like a Windows Phone iteration. Your desktop client will need to be Skype for Windows 4.2 or above (or Skype for Mac 2.8 and above) – plus the app will also work with other desktop clients and devices such as Skype for Linux and the Asus-manufactured standalone Skype Videophone.Microsoft updated its Skype for Android and iOS app just over a year ago. Most excitingly, for many Skype users, video calls can now be made between your PC or Mac laptop or desktop and your iOS device. IPod touch 3rd generation and iPad will both be able to receive video calls, but not send them, due to the lack of video-shooting capabilities on those devices.
The new Skype for iPhone app will also work with the with the iPhone 3GS, and iPod touch 4th generation with iOS 4.0 or above – although obviously only allowing the caller to send video from the single camera on the back of the phone or iPod in those cases.
"Now, users can make and receive free Skype-to-Skype calls, call mobiles and landlines around the world at very low rates, and now share more moments together with video on Skype for iPhone,"
