Hi Everyone,
The latest Skype Insider build 8.100 was fully released and this is what we were working on.
What’s new?
Unleash your inner Picasso with Bing Image Creator:
Now in Skype, let your chats burst with creativity as Bing morphs into your personal sketch artist. Command "draw me a horse," and voila, Bing whips up four unique variants, promising a deeper interaction with AI. It's art class, available on all platforms, and powered by DALL-E!
Context Menu with Reactions visual refresh:
Unveiling our swanky, redesigned context menu for mobile platforms, which now includes the handy option to react to a message with emojis right from the menu itself. A long press on a message reveals an easy-to-navigate menu with familiar options - from copying and replying, to bookmarking and reporting. It's the same practicality you know, now with a sleeker look and feel that's responsive to your color theme too!

Hide and Seek leveled up:
Gone are the days when hidden chats would reappear with new messages. Now, simply right-click, opt for 'Hide conversation', and watch your chat vanish, new messages notwithstanding. Retrieve these elusive chats anytime using the chat list filter on mobile platforms or chat list dropdown on desktop platforms. Hidden until you decide otherwise!
Stability improvements & Bug fixes:
- Call connectivity issues on iOS
- The app freezing when placed in the background or when there is a screensaver on Mac
As usual, all new features are rolling out gradually over the next couple of days so if you don’t see them right away, just check again soon.
Please let us know what you think about the latest changes, either here in the community or through the Skype app. You can always go to the
Skype’s User Feedback channel to submit and vote for new features and ideas.
Additionally,
download the latest
Skype Insider build here if you have not yet, so, you don't miss out on these
Early Access features. :)
Thank you,
The Skype Team
