The result is a great first class experience for Mac users. We’ve also updated the Skype Operations Framework (SOF) assets to help customers plan, deliver and operate the new Mac client.

Screen Sharing is probably the most popular and used feature of Skype being used on most households and even businesses. It is also more likely to be the one to experience most setbacks. At first, the video starts to get a little static or choppy.

Enhancements to Skype for Business mobile apps on Android and iOS We are also announcing new capabilities in Skype for Business apps for iOS and Android—including the ability to present PowerPoint files in a meeting and a faster, more reliable content sharing approach. Present in a meeting from your mobile app—Now you can present content right from Android or iOS device.

No more emailing files and links back and forth when you present from your phone or tablet. Now, sharing a PowerPoint deck in a meeting is as easy as selecting the file from your favorite cloud drive and presenting right from your phone. On Android, you can also share a file stored on the device itself.

With swipe gestures, you can easily transition between different slides. Once shared, the PowerPoint file also becomes available in the meeting’s content bin for other participants to download or present. Video-based Screen Sharing for mobile devices—We’re also continuing to enhance the content viewing experience with Skype for Business on mobile devices by using Video-based Screen Sharing (VbSS) for content viewing on iOS and Android apps. The initial setup is much faster, the experience more reliable, while also consuming network bandwidth efficiently. It provides a seamless viewing experience, especially if you are sharing animated content such as CAD models. Stay tuned for upcoming updates, such as call-kit integration on iOS.

Features like one-click join, edge-to-edge video, and full screen sharing give you a superior Skype Meetings experience. The December update brings: • Sharing for audio calls.

The ability to share desktops in P2P communications has been asked for by many Mac users. As part of our first step to get this feature enabled, we have enabled sharing during an audio call. In the first image, the Mac client has shared their desktop during an audio call. The second image shows the same share from a Windows client perspective. We know there is more to do and it’s on our roadmap to further enhance this experience. • VbSS Viewing for Office 365 Users.
