Improved but the cutesy graphics are silly and the interface is a confusing mess
Ive used Skype a lot for years. I didnt love the old client. It was clunky and dated. And confusing especially regarding contact management. Unlike other reviews I have read I find the new app generally improved and feeling more reliable but usability of the interface is terrible. Its cryptic. Weirdly modal. Icons disappear, functions are unclear, contact management is baffling. Integration with iOS phone function is a big plus but still rough and unclear. Far too much emphasis and screen real estate has been surrendered to dopey cute animations in ugly multicolored pallets. You know you could hire people with taste if you wanted to.
Also while we are at it, Id REALLY like a lower-bandwidth audio OPTION as many of us traveling internationally or at sea often are operating with slower connections.
