Microsoft Corporation Skype Rolls Out Updates To Fix Crash Bug

Microsoft Corporation’s (NASDAQ:MSFT) team behind Skype has reportedly rolled out updates for the application running on previous versions of Windows, along with Google Inc’s (NASDAQ:GOOG) Android operating devices, and also for Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ:AAPL) iOS devices.



The updates serve as a fix for the crash bug that was spotted by several users, who complained that upon receiving a string of eight text characters, their Skype applications crashed. However, this wasn’t the end of their misery as the application kept on crashing even after being restarted.

Skype announced this update through a blog post which stated: “We are aware of a problem that was causing Skype clients to crash. Our engineering teams worked hard to resolve this issue, and have released updates for all impacted Skype platforms." Reports also indicate that Skype for Mac remained unharmed by the crash bug, but developers still decided to roll out an update for Mac devices. The updated version is being stated as 7.5; however, the rest of the updates are mentioned as 5.13 for iOS, 5.4 for Android devices and 7.7 for Windows.

The response is a fairly quick one by the Skype's team, who state that users can continue to use Skype on their devices once again and securely this time, simply by updating the app to these versions. A similar crash bug was also found causing issues for the messaging application on iOS, which also forced users to reboot their devices, yet the iMessage application still remained inaccessible.

Skype’s response to the crash bug comes out earlier and quicker than Apple, which offered a temporary fix and announced that the team of developers is working on proper a fix, which will be rolled out in the upcoming days or weeks.
