Skype, launched in 2003, is still a widely used service today. It allows users to exchange chat messages, send files, and save conversations. It is very secure, with digitally transmitted data being encrypted using algorithms and not shared. The latest update of this software has unlocked many new features, including a real-time universal translator.
Skype 8.93 Version
This latest version has introduced the natural voice translation feature, which is based on artificial intelligence and is capable of synthesizing the voice during a translation of a video call. The version is available on all platforms, including Windows, Android, iOS, Mac, and Linux.
Other New Features
This is not the only new feature however, as there is much more to find such as an improved settings section, customization options, and a new section featuring recommended and suggested content.
Skype on Mac, Windows, and Linux
On these devices you can:
- Manage the app’s call ID settings
- Choose a background color
- Fix and eliminate bugs
- Use your voice for a call translated in Skype
- The version will detect the different languages spoken during the call and translate them
Skype on Android/iOS
If you use Android/iOS, the features you can use are:
- Manage Skype call ID settings
- Use your voice during a call translated on the app
- Eliminate bugs
- Use a QR Code to add contacts in Skype on your phone
- Always get updates and the latest news
- Customize background themes
- The update will detect the foreign languages and translate them during the call
The release of all these features is currently in progress and is constantly improving, so not everyone will receive the update at the same time.
Tips for Easy Reading
To make the content easier to read and understand, use short sentences and simple words, separate blocks of text with headings or bullet points, include subheadings to help explain complex concepts, ensure that the rate of passage words is low (meaning there are less than 15 words per sentence and sentences are shorter than 20 words), use formatting such as bold or italics to highlight key points, and eliminate any references.
