There are great new apps arriving every day in to the Windows Store but few have been anticipated as much as Skype. Though the app will not be available until October 26th, the team showed today just how beautiful it is.
In a post on the Skype Big Blog Mark Gillett shares what many are already calling the best looking Windows 8 app yet. But it’s not just good looks
- Skype is integrated in to the people app.
- You can snap the Skype app right or left to have a chat and keep on using your PC.
- Skype runs seamlessly and quietly in the background so when a call comes in, you’ll always get a notification.
- When Skype is open, it’s a full screen, immersive experience.
I’m using it now and I can tell you that it’s beautiful and functional. The bar was just raised on Windows 8 apps.
