You No Longer Need a Skype Account

Skype Update

Microsoft made the Skype Omnipresent. The application for video chat can be used by everyone in the world with just an internet connection, even users who don’t have a Skype account.

The new feature enables Skype users to generate a URL and spread it on the internet for direct video chat; users can also participate in group calls. The links can be spread in several ways, such as Facebook, Twitter and email, allow users to chat with anyone via Skype for Web.

Initially, this feature compatible and works fine on Windows, Mac, Android and iOS users. The only restriction is that the feature is available to use only for UK and US residents. Soon company will make it accessible globally, according to an official statement.

Now that anyone can use Skype with internet connection, it's funny if we think about it three weeks before, when Skype was down and no one was able to use the Skype for some hours. Of course, Microsoft accepted and fixed it in short time.

Company has worked with diligence to build Skype usage, including developing a public app that offered a single user experience among all types of operating systems and devices, enabling Skype to convert calls into six different languages and giving secured access to business owners on iOS devices.

Around 300 million people are using Skype across the world, making Skype the 8th biggest social network, according to survey from Statista.
