The very first release of Windows Phone had an integrated SMS and instant messaging client (though using Windows Messenger at the time), and this was a popular feature. While desktop users preferred the integrated all-in-one client, the task-oriented approach was a much better fit for mobile. The neutering of the task-oriented clients is perplexing.
(This would allow the PC Messaging app to send SMS messages, relaying them via the phone.) Advertisement The separated, task-oriented apps would be continued, and Microsoft would add features such as SMS syncing between the Messaging apps on the phone and the PC. Unlike the old Windows 8 Skype app with its partial functionality, this UWP client would serve as a complete replacement for the old Win32 desktop app. The new-new plan was to develop a fully featured UWP version of the Skype client. This plan was, however, reversed again in March this year. These apps were designed along the same kind of model that Apple offers on the iPhone: an iMessage-like messaging app combining SMS and instant messaging, a FaceTime-like video calling app, and a phone app that could use both the phone network and Skype's voice calling capabilities. This was to be joined by a set of discrete applications-one for messaging, one for voice calling, and one for video calling. For desktop users, the traditional Win32 Skype client was to be updated to provide the richest, most capable Skype experience. Instead, the company planned a two-pronged strategy going forward at that time. The company initially developed a (rather feature deficient) Windows 8-style Skype client, but in June last year Microsoft said that client was to be discontinued. Overall, the development of Microsoft's Skype client continues to confuse since the strategy at large remains unclear. The company says that the new client is faster, too. Calls to landlines, voicemails, screen sharing, and integrated translation of audio and video calls are all now available.
In addition to supporting Windows phones, the client has been given a big functional upgrade as Microsoft continues to rebuild all the old Skype client's functionality within the new app.
