Microsoft announcedRemove ads from Skype, so as to maintain a clean and friendly service interface. In addition, the artificial intelligence image generation function is improved in the desktop interface, the login process is simplified, and some system problems are corrected.
By removing Skype's advertising content, Microsoft said it hopes to give users a simpler interface experience, making it easier to communicate through Skype without being disturbed by advertisements.
However, Microsoft's move may be to attract more people to use Skype again, and then remove the advertising content to avoid causing disgust during use. On the other hand, it obviously also means that Skype will no longer be Microsoft's main advertising revenue platform.
Since there are already quite a few VoIP communication services similar to Skype in the market, and Skype service already has an additional business operation model of using Skype Out to make mobile or international calls by paying for points, Microsoft may have decided to remove advertisements in Skype to reduce user interference.
In addition to removing advertising content, Microsoft also makes it easier for users to use the artificial intelligence image generation function in the Skype chat window. At the same time, users can quickly access it directly in the chat window or function bar to create images in an intuitive way. In addition, the login process has been improved, allowing users to replace the existing login system with OneAuth. If the user has previously logged in to Microsoft services such as Microsoft Teams, they can automatically log in to Skype.
Other parts include fixing the stability of Skype operation, the problem that some users cannot send images and other content through 5G network services, and the problem that on the iOS platform, only the incoming call ringtone can be heard but the call cannot be answered normally.
