Skype doesn\'t run in the background in ios4. I used to run jailbroken os 3.1.3 with backgrounder and could get calls, msgs anytime and flick between apps while still maintaining a call. Now with ios4 as soon as the screen closes the app stops working and I have to sign in again to continue. It\'s a real pain in the arse and ruined the powerful business application of being able to run multiple apps at the same time and practically work from anywhere in the world without having to drag my macbook around with me.
If it is possible to run Skype all the time so people can see you online I\'d love someone to show/explain it to me.
Thanks
Greg

I updated skype for my iPhone 4 and push notifications isn\'t even an option for it (it\'s not an option in the app or settings)
In the app store I read it\'s description and iPhone 4 isn\'t even in it\'s compatibility list! They left us hanging for this update

I\'ve updated too. I\'m on an iPhone 3GS 4.0 and it does not seem to work at all. No multitasking. No notifications to be found in the app or general settings.
Bad update?

Thats right, i update skype and it seems normal. I mean it doesn\'t work in the background neither multitasking. It sucks
