Ratings and Reviews
Problem with reactions
I am using latest Skype for iOS and I have noticed issues when I try to react to a message. After tapping the reactions button nothing happens. I have to reopen Skype in order to make reactions working. I am sure this started after updating to iOS 15. Currently I am running iOS 15.0.1 on my iPhone 11 Pro Max.
Best audio at all
Skype is the app with the absolute best audio during video and normal call even between desktop and mobile devices... The only thing what I am disappointed is that is not so used and it lost terrain on mobile after the introduction od Whatsapp and Viber. All in all one of my favourite apps.
Failed Image Transfer
Very very unreliable for bussiness. I send images to my client via Skype and we figured out that he didn’t get the images two days later. Even though I had no clue since Skype wasn’t showing any image transfer errors and images were shown as image transfer was complete. Luckily that happened to him before on Skype with other clients and he believed my word (and my screenshots). But I almost lost my client! That is just a huuuuge fail. Never going to use Skype again.
