Skype

Joining all of Microsoft's myriad Insider programs just got a little easier.

Skype has gained the ability to share your mobile screen on iOS and Android as part of a design refresh that brings several new features.

This week on the Windows Central Podcast: We talk new the Windows 10 Creators Update RTM, Redstone 3 wish list, Windows 10 Mobile job listings and more.

Skype beta testers on iOS can now check out the app's refreshed icon, joining the rest of the Office suite's redesign.

Skype is bringing back another feature from the classic app, this time allowing you to receive alerts when contacts come online.

Skype's group calling limit is moving up from 25 participants to 50.

The Cortana bot for Skype has bid adieu, but you'll still be able to use the assistant's smarts for suggested replies.

Now you can make sure whoever is speaking is front-and-center on your Skype calls.

Skype is now testing a feature that will let you preview media files before you share them, ensuring that you're sending the right thing.

If you need one more place to be prodded to check your Skype alerts, the app can now email you reminders for missed calls and messages.
