Skype iPhone app update – video calling is here!
“Finally!” I can almost here you all shouting with sighs of relief, mixed with jumps for joy. When the iPhone 4 was released with a front facing camera I’m sure many of us were expecting the Skype app to be video enabled. It’s taken six months, but that day is finally here.
The most recent Skype app update includes:
- Ability to make Skype calls to desktop users and other iPhone users (Mac and Windows)
- Two-way video calls supported on iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and iPod touch 4thgeneration
- Receive only video supported on iPad and iPod touch 3rd generation, without camera
The update is compatible with any iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPod Touch 3rd and 4th gen, and the iPad sporting iOS 4.0 or later. It’s important to note, since there is no camera on the iPad or 3rd gen iPod Touch, you can only receive video, you obviously have no means to send it.
So guys, what do you think? Are you as excited as I am? Will FaceTime become less interesting now that a more universal video calling program is available? Comment below
