The Redmond firm also adds that it has tweaked some keyboard shortcuts to “fix a bug between Skype and Terminal”. In addition to that, Skype for iOS users can now directly share content with Skype contacts from the share tray.
Unfortunately, that function is not present for Windows 10 users because it was removed when the React Native-based version of the app was replaced with the Electron version back in June. The share sheet on Microsoft’s OS does not display Skype as a share target.
The rest of the improvements in version 8.64 bring the usual bug fixes and stability improvements for all the platforms. The company says that the update is rolling out gradually to all users, so it could be a few days till the update shows up for everyone.
