Video call usually works fine. That should be the focus, not stapling a news feed to an unrelated product. As far as I can tell, there is no way to disable that portion or the notifications it sends. I would recommend other apps/platforms that focus more on their core communications products. There is also a bot problem that is very persistant, and there are no tools for the user to at the bare minimum only accept messages from known contacts.

My only complaint involves recent changes to the interface. You used to be able to switch to a Bluetooth device ON THE FLY! You could also use a bluetooth speaker and run the mikes in the phone or tablet. You can do NEITHER now. If you put on earbuds during a call the call is DISCONNECTED! This is a giant leap backwards! The interface is totally oversimplified now, not many options. They needed to have well enough let alone and instead produced a much inferior product from before.

It's so incredibly obnoxious to add a news feed with notifications that are hard to turn off to an app that's supposed to be for video calls. The Skype Today notifications just started popping up on a recent update and you can't turn off the notifications with the Notifications part of the Settings menu (which would be the obvious place). I finally figured it out via Google but why annoy your customers like this??
