If you have Skype on your smartphone, tablet, and computer, we’re pretty sure you get annoyed by the simultaneously pinging of those devices when you get chat notifications. Microsoft is fixing the problem with a new update. Skype has a new “active endpoint” feature that will only send you chat notifications on the device you are using. For example, if you are chatting on your phone, then the notifications will only show up on your phone. At the same time, the chat history is still synced across multiple devices so if you want to pick up the conversation on another device, you can do just that.
