Skype (Unofficial) ------------------ Skype chat and outgoing voice calls on Ubuntu Touch. Video calls are not working yet; the Skype team (not us!) is working on this. This web app makes the Skype web version available on Ubuntu Touch mobile devices by help of a User Agent override (mimicking Chromium Web browser on a Ubuntu Linux desktop). Without that Skype's web version displays a "Not available on this device yet" message on most mobile platforms as of today. Messaging will work, voice calls too, video calls are not available yet. Notifications are limited too, both for incoming calls (when the app is active) and all other notifications when the app is in the background; we can do little about this: Canonical must provide a notification infrastructure, which the Skype team would have to use. Note that most if not all limitations will almost certainly depend on Microsoft implementing the necessary feature on the web version and the target platform. This web app is not affiliated with Microsoft who owns Skype. The Skype name, associated trade marks and logos and the "S" logo are trade marks of Skype or related entities.
