Skype now allows you to make HD video calls on iPhone
Little by little the application Skype continues to launch functions and improvements for the main mobile platforms. A communication tool that has always opted for the video call to stay in touch regardless of distance, and now wants to improve it on the platform iOS To do this, it has launched a new update with few but substantial improvements. Of course, the most remarkable can only be used from an iPhone 5S, due to its technical qualities.
This is the version 4.17 of Skype for iOS, and the new version affects both the iPhone as iPad A new version with few new features. The most noteworthy is undoubtedly the possibility of making HD or High Definition video calls A feature that for the moment only iPhone terminals 5S can carry out. This means taking advantage of the potential of the 8 megapixel rear camera or even the front camera (more frequent to be able to see the interlocutor on the screen) of 1, 2 megapixels to send a video signal clear and sharp This means images that are full of detail as long as have a good internet connection. All you have to do is make a video call as usual, although to view this image in High Definition it is necessary for the interlocutor to have an iPhone 5S to receive your HD signal on screen
The other feature that this new version brings applies to all terminals iOS This is a useful feature for more regulars to this app. And with it they can now receive message notifications directly on the terminal's lock screen. This means having messages that can be read or whose recipient can be seen with a single glance, without having to access the application if you don't want to reply . The good thing is that these notifications and messages are now received even when the app is closed. Something similar to what happens with WhatsApp With this it is not necessary to keep Skype active at all moment, knowing that their messages will be received in the same way, and alerting the user from the same lock screen.
Finally, there is a third novelty in this new version of Skype An improvement that implies a more fast synchronization of messages between different devices This means switching from iPhone to iPad, or vice versa, at any time and continue with a conversation from the same point where it left off. All this practically instantaneously, without the need to wait for the messages to load. A good quality also to move from portable device to computer, avoiding misunderstandings or unnecessary waiting when changing platforms.
In short, an update that is not surprising for its groundbreaking qualities, but that adds interesting features, especially for the most frequent users who are always aware of their messages and who want to see their interlocutors clearly and clearly through through the screen.The new version of Skype is now available through of the App Store completelyfree
