Skype For iPhone – First Impressions
As expected the official Skype for iPhone app just made an appearance in the App Store.
As a huge Skype user I’m pretty excited to give it a try. If you do let us know what you think.
UPDATE:
I thought I would give a quick update after actually downloading the app… What a disappointment!
The app loaded beautifully. It looked great. It gave that familiar Skype login sound. It showed me my contacts. I was psyched!!!!!!
Then… I….. tried… to… make…. a… call..and… it…sounded… like…this…. sentence…. looks… choppy… as…hell.
Seriously, I called my office and got the answering machine and it was all impossible to understand. SERIOUSLY it was unusable.
I thought it might be my WiFi connection until…
I called my office from Trufone. Not only did Truphone connect is less than half the time but the sound was PERFECT. I then tried Skype again and found it to be just as choppy. Truphone again… perfect. Skype again.. choppy. Truphone again… perfect.
I love Skype but I think I may be dropping my Skype Unlimited plan and going for Truphone’s plan instead.
