Skype is one of the most versatile communication platforms developed by Microsoft. With it we can access a set of functionalities created especially to facilitate all communication, connectivity and file transfer tasks, either personally or corporately..
Recently Skype integrated read confirmations in its application both at the video and audio level and text chat. This way it will be possible to see what text messages our contacts have seen and also allows the contacts to see which messages have also been seen by us.
Skype read confirmations are available as of version 8 of the application for both mobile and desktop platforms, and are enabled by default. But in some situations we may want to disable such functionality due to a security or privacy issue. TechnoWikis will explain how to do this..
