A new and more user-friendly version of Skype has just been announced and it is already available for download on the iTunes Store for iPhone and iPad.

This new iteration of Skype for iOS is designed to make it easier and faster to get in touch with your friends and family with the help of a more natural to use interface.

Besides the new and improved navigation, Skype 6.0 also comes with an easier way to find your contacts via the just introduced Recents tab.

Here you'll be able to rapidly pinpoint any contact or group and, when needed, to quickly locate any previous message.

Powerful new features and designed for iPad

What's more, the new Skype 6.0 release also ports each and every feature you know from the iPhone version onto your iPad allowing you to effortlessly start group voice calls or chats right from your iPad, and to share photos and your location with your contacts while on the go.

The iPad version also comes with inbuilt web link previews for saving time when chatting with your friends and the capability of sending large emoticons that will make it easier for users with Retina devices to spot them.

Improved multi-tasking is also on the list of just added features, and it is designed to streamline your experience by helping you switch between various screens even quicker.
