Over the last several months, anyone on Windows 10 has had the opportunity to test the integration of Skype Messaging and Chat via apps released by Microsoft for those individual purposes.
The goal of those apps were to make those functions integral to Windows 10 with integration in Messaging on both the PC and Mobile versions of Windows 10.
Well, after all of this testing and feedback from users, Microsoft has decided that while the concept works well in theory users wanted a more focused experience but with all of that functionality in a single app instead of spread around their operating system.
This means
Microsoft has decided to move forward with their plans for a Universal Windows Platform (UWP) version of Skype that will work on PCs and Mobile devices running Windows 10.
This is not a new concept though as they planned last year to do the same thing but the introduction of the Messaging and Video Skype apps for Windows 10 stepped into the breach for a few months.
