    In an official announcement on Thursday, Skype announced improvements for both its Skype for iPhone application, and its Skype Quik application for iOS.

    Skype Quik has been updated to version 1.5.0 with all-new effects that allow users to express themselves in their videos. They are easy to use and to navigate to by using the magic wand button from the Skype Quik application interface:

    Qik 1.5 also gives you new ways to express yourself on Windows Phone, iPhone and Android. We created 8 new effects you can use while recording your videos to make them more fun and playful. Once you open the viewfinder, you can select an effect to apply to your video. You can even switch from one to another while you’re recording to include multiple effects in one video message. Choose from favorites like mirror, x-ray and Minecraft (a staff favorite that makes you look 8-bit) or go crazy with hearts or snow. On iPhone and Android, tap the magic wand in the viewfinder window to display the effects options. On Windows Phone, swipe on the viewfinder to cycle through the different styles.
    In terms of the Skype for iPhone application for iOS, Skype has announced support for 12 new languages across the board in an update coming later this week, including:

    • Croatian
    • Slovak
    • Catalan
    • Vietnamese
    • Thai
    • Hindi
    • Greek
    • Hungarian
    • Indonesian
    • Malay
    • Turkish
    • Estonian


    Although the Skype for iPhone update isn't out yet, the new Skype Quik application is available for free from this App Store link or via the Updates tab in the App Store application for those that already have it installed. If automatic updates is enabled, these applications will be installed for you automatically.
