Microsoft is Shutting Down Skype Qik on March 24th

Microsoft has announced that it is shutting down its 'Skype Qik' group video messaging app. The company says that it has migrated some of Qik's most useful features into the main Skype.

In 2014, we launched Skype Qik, a mobile video messaging app to help share moments with groups of friends. Since then, we have learned that many of you are already doing these things in Skype, and as a result, we migrated some of Qik’s most used features into the Skype app you already know and love.

We’ve enabled video messaging in Skype and fun features such as filters, to make your messages even more personal. To send a video message in Skype today, simply look for the video message icon in the media bar.


Due to these updates, the last day Skype Qik will be available for use will be March 24th, 2016. Please make sure to save any special messages you may want to keep before March 24th. After this date, you will no longer be able to send or receive messages.

You can still download Skype Qik from the App Store but it will likely disappear soon.
