You won’t miss pretty much anything if you decide to access Skype on the web from your mobile phone, instead of downloading the app, as Microsoft released Build 8119 to the platform that offers a uniform experience to all Skype users, regardless of the method of login.

According tothe official changelog, the refreshed call panel design for mobile web now matches the one of the mobile app, enabling apolished call experience where your mobile web calls are just as smooth as on the app, says Microsoft.

As you can read below, the Redmond-based tech giant introduces a plethora of new design changes to make that happen, including:

Skype 8119 also enhances the experience of using the platform on mobile devices, whether we’re talking about Android or iOS phones. For instance, the latter will get a picture-in-picture call monitor, allowing for seamless calling experiences even when switching between apps.

The former, on the other hand, will display some useful notifications when messaging invalid numbers, letting users know that no credit was wasted.

For Windows users, Skype now offers a clearer and simplified audio device selection, allowing them to choose the exact device for microphones and speakers.

It’s been just a couple of weeks sinceSkype 8118was released, but it’s nice to see Microsoft working hard to bring a unified experience for all users.
