If you&#8217;re enrolled in the beta program, the update will allow you to use your mobile <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/tag\/camera\/\"   title=\"camera\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">camera<\/a> to add a dynamic secondary view.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s much easier to view multiple activities on a single screen by combining your desktop and mobile camera views.  The new feature is called TwinCam and can be activated with a simple QR scan from your phone during any Skype call on your desktop.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to TwinCam, Skype Chats received an upgrade with stacked media albums for photos and videos.  With the latest update, Skype users will be able to share multiple visuals, which will be displayed in a stack, each framed to match the theme.<\/p>\n<div id=\"gallery-1ba8688b-a839-43b7-9081-718cce531af0\" class=\"single-image-container  image-c\" style=\"width:407px;max-width:100%\">\n<div class=\"gallery-item\">\n<picture style=\"padding-top: 207.37100737101%\"><source media=\"(max-width: 350px)\" ><source media=\"(min-width: 351px) and (max-width: 500px)\" ><source media=\"(min-width: 501px) and (max-width: 800px)\" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Skype-now-supports-a-secondary-camera-feed-chats-get-a.jpg\" alt=\"Skype now supports a secondary camera feed, chats get a dynamic upgrade\"\/><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Basically, you can combine multiple images and videos into a single album stack within your chat.  Photos will have a white border in light mode or a black border in dark mode.  Obviously, you need to share at least two photos or videos in chat for them to be combined into an album stack.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the latest Skype update fixes an issue where users randomly disconnected when sending an audio or <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/tag\/video\/\"   title=\"video\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">video<\/a> message on Mac. <\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind that these new features will be rolled out gradually over the next few days, so if you don&#8217;t see them right away, be patient.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Skype now supports a secondary camera feed, chats get a vibrant upgrade\u060c The first day of December marks the launch of a major update for Skype, which brings some useful new features.
