In June, Microsoft announced the "next generation of Skype", with a redesigned interface and a range of new features, including including color customizations, Snapchat-style 'Highlights', new add-ins and more bots. The new version launched first on Android, before rolling out on iOS, but Microsoft said that Mac and Windows users would have to wait for its release "over the next few months".
You can download the new Skype Preview app via the Skype Insider site. Microsoft says that "Skype Preview will install alongside Skype classic, making it easy to switch back if needed", but recommends only running one instance of Skype at a time.
