Hello,

 

I know I am risking starting another hot discussion that people don't have a
Skype update yet, but if you don't then just give it a day or two, I am sure
it will be in all app stores very shortly.

 

So, having said this, I just had Skype 5.1 show up in the Canadian app store
and here is what they say is new:

 

. Remove conversations from Recent - press and hold on the conversation to
remove the conversation from Recent

. Edit a message - press and hold on the message in the chat to edit

. Add Favorites directly on the Favorites hub screen

. Voiceover improvements

. General improvements

 

Deleting a conversation works well, just double tap and hold on the
conversation or Recent item and a small menu with "Delete" and "Cancel" will
pop up.

 

Haven't quite figured out how to edit a message in a chat, but if you double
tap and hold on a hat message it shows as "selected" and there is a "copy"
button at the very bottom right of the screen (4-finger tap will take you
there) and this will copy the message to the clipboard.

 

One of the Voiceover improvements I noticed is that the tab you have
selected now says "Selected", e.g. it would say :"Selected, it, People" or
"Selected, Recent" and these 3 items "Recent, Favorites and People now seem
to stay in the same place and in that order from left to right whereas
before whichever tab you selected would move to the very left.

 

The "All" button now is announced more descriptively as "People List Filter"
and in addition to "All" and "Online" they added "Skype" again which will
show all Skype contacts without saved phone numbers. Voiceover will also
announce which filter you selected, e.g. it will say "People List Filter,
Online" or "People List Filter, All".

 

That's it for now and it does appear that Skype is definitely listening to
the feedback they receive and are acting quickly on it.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard
