Skype for Android is unbelievably bad. I uninstalled it after the following:
- a spam bot texts me asking to connect - which, whatever.
- my locked phone wakes up from sleep and /launches into Skype/ to show me this exciting information
- it literally could be solved by a notification
- it is not configurable in settings
I can understand the "bypass lock screen" behavior for an incoming phone call, but this is such an unbelievably bad interaction even for contacts you do know, nevermind contacts you don't.
Skype engineers - and I know you're reading this - show this to your PMs.
- VladimirGolovin 8y agoEarlier today, I wanted to call a friend via Skype (on Android), but I couldn't -- tapping the call icon did nothing. At all. I tried several times, even restarted the app, but it still didn't work.
- oblio 8y agoThe real way they should benchmark their app is do similar actions on 2 identical phones in Skype and Whatsapp. Skype is slow opening up and sluggish afterwards. It gets stuck sometimes... Whatsapp is fast and flawless, in comparison.
