Skype permanently retired for Android 2.2 or below


Bad news for old Android cell phones user, Skype Communication said, we've noticed that you are, or previously were, signed into Skype on a phone running the Android 2.2 (or below) operating system. We're sorry to inform you that we are now retiring all Skype apps that work on these older versions of the Android operating system. As a result, within the next few weeks, you'll no longer be able to sign in and use Skype on any Android 2.2 (or below) phone. If possible, we recommend that you upgrade your phone to a newer version of Android to continue using Skype.

Skype Communication said, If you've been using Skype on a more recent Android device, the above does not apply.

Skype Communication said, You can still stay in touch with friends and family using Skype on your desktop computer, laptop, phone, tablet or even an Xbox One. You can sign into them all using the same Skype account. The latest versions of Skype for all your devices are available at http://www.skype.com/download.
 
Have you recently upgraded to a new Android phone or tablet?
