Completely disappointed. There is nothing similarity with the desktop one. Too many bugs on the mobile app. There are many times that you are not able to open a conversation, so you can't reply or see any message. Don't even try to send images, they will never going to be sent.

This app gets crappier and crappier. After messing up the camera screen such that you can only record a video in chat when keeping the shutter button pressed (never understood why that would be handy!!) it now changed back to a photo and separate video tab. Great! Only problem is that it doesn't record ANY video right now. It's a joke really!!!!

Skype itself usually works as expected but I do find that I have regular issues with "gaps" in conversations - small sections of the call which are just not there - which I think could be caused be phone network or fibre wi-fi strength issues. This is specifically when using my phone, even when my phone is reflecting full wi-fi and decent phone network connectivity. It is not always convenient to fire up my laptop for a short, or what sometimes ends up being a long call.
