Skype updates are scheduled that relate to file transfer.
Maximum file upload size is only 100 MB.
Changes in the exchange algorithm will allow you to have access to files from any device, but the file sizes will be smaller.
On the official support website of the popular VoIP service Skype reported about changes in the algorithm of sharing of files between users.
The good news is that from now on, all sent through Skype files will be synchronized with all devices of the user. In practice, this means that if you, say, gave the file to the desktop Skype client, you will also be able to access it from your smartphone or tablet, pre-logging into your account from these devices. In addition, now all the transmitted files are downloaded to the server where it is stored for 30 days.
The bad news news is that now the maximum upload size is only 100 MB. If the user tries to upload a file larger, you will immediately see the error message. From this situation there are at least two choices: either to split the file into several files of 100 MB and send them to the recipient separately, or take advantage of services of cloud storage Microsoft OneDrive.
Meanwhile, as at the beginning of may, the number of downloads of different versions of the Skype app for mobile devices has exceeded one billion. In achieving this result took seven years, if we take as a starting point the launch of the first Skype app for iPhone.
