Skype will add group chats to its mobile app to mark the 10th anniversary of offering video calls.<br />The Microsoft-owned company said Tuesday in a blog post that the new feature will show up "in the coming weeks" on its app for iOS, Android and Windows 10 Mobile.<br />"It really has been a decade since Skype changed the way people connect with their loved ones," said Gurdeep Pall, corporate vice president of Microsoft.<br />"Six years ago, we innovated again with one-to-one video calling on mobile phones.<br />Today, we are excited to announce the next evolution."<br />Skype didn't say how many people will be able to share a video call on the mobile app, though its desktop version allows for 10 participants.<br />The company isn't exactly ahead of the curve on this release.<br />Some rivals already offer it, including Google Hangouts since 2011 and the Oovoo messaging app.
