Skype for Android gets new update, scheduling calls with friends and family now a breeze

 The new Skype update is a ghost ride with the Skype call now faster and efficient than ever

 

Redmond-based Microsoft has announced the launch of a new update for Skype app on Android, adding two new features that will help users to be more productive on their Android device.
The new update makes it a breeze to schedule a call with friends and family. Also, users can now easily open the Office documents – Word documents, PowerPoint presentations and Excel spreadsheets – from the chat window.
“We know that many of you arrange calls over Skype, and we’ve now made it easier for you to add it to your calendar, so you don’t forget about them,” Microsoft stated in a blogpost.
It added, “If a friend sends you a Word document, tapping on the file will open it right up in Word for Android; no extra steps needed! If you don’t have Office apps for Android installed, tapping on the file will give you easy instructions on how to download and install them.”
Download the update from the Google Play Store.
