Skype APK 8.137.0.425

4 stars: Skype itself usually works as expected but I do find that I have regular issues with
3 stars: Edit: So instead of making this faster and fixing bugs, they are shutting it down and moving us to the inferior Teams. Bad move. I'll miss Skype. Original: The best out of all chat apps but also the slowest. It's sooo slow to open. Slow to load chats. Doesn't sync fast. Feels like a 20 year old app. The camera feature in it is buggy. Microsoft is making all their apps on phone and Windows buggy. Note20 Ultra.
3 stars: All of a sudden, messages are not coming through properly. They appear on the notifications, then when you go into Skype to read them, they aren't there. Sometimes, it can be hours between the notification and being able to read the message. What is going on? It's spoiling what's always been a reliable form of communication.
2 stars: The same problems that skype has had years ago are still present. I get a notification for a message and it doesn't show in the chat for the whole day and I have a stable connection. Or I get delayed notifications again on wifi. Or the chat has a visual glitch when you finally get that message only shows the bottom half of chat. My app is always updated too. It's so weird how it never changes.
2 stars: Poorly optimized for phones and slow as molasses on budget phones despite not having any significant new features over the last decade. Constantly getting added to scam groups and having to block and report. This app
