Microsoft has refined its Skype app further for the iOS ecosystem with a new update for the iPhone. Version 5.0 of the app now has an updated notification system that works across different Skype platforms, including iPhone, PC, and Xbox. The group chat feature has also been revamped so you can access it from the main hub. The app is also said to be five times faster than the previous version. An iPad update is supposedly in the works but there is no information when it will be available.
