Often they’re funny, and they can sometimes be used to express something important. One of my favorite things about Skype has always been the emoticons – the people and symbols you can create usually by clicking the little smiley face in the lower right corner of the chat window. Skype is also getting new emoticons: a yogi, crying while laughing, and “a slew of spooky characters just in time for Halloween.” There are also some hidden ones that you’ll have to hunt around for.We use Skype all day, every day, to give English classes, meet with each other, and generally to conduct business and communicate with friends around the globe. New tabs: Go ahead, pick favorites! The most in-demand Mojis of the moment will be featured in a new “Popular” tab, and new content will go in a new “Featured” tab.

Skype emojis update#
Update on October 16: Skype has added new Mojis. I’m willing to bet all the money that it took to develop this feature that the number one request will be to add support for actual emojis.ĭon’t get us wrong, it’s a great idea, but Skype needs to catch up to the competition before it can start leapfrogging. Skype is naturally asking for feedback on this addition. They will be available in the emoticon picker under new tabs: Hollywood, Muppets, and BBC. In the meantime, if you’re a Windows, Mac, Android, or iOS user, you can update your Skype client to try the new Mojis.

Hopefully, that will change when Windows 10 Mobile arrives. Once again, Microsoft has not prioritized its own mobile platform. Windows Phone, where art thou? “Windows Phone continues to be an important investment for Microsoft, we plan on releasing Skype Mojis to this platform in the future,” a Microsoft spokesperson told VentureBeat. They are also available on Android and iOS: For example, here are the links for Ted and The Office.

You can read and browse around, but the main expected action (as denoted by the word “watch” in the link as opposed to “learn more”) is to rent or buy the flick to view the full version. Regardless of who the sender is, the link takes you to a page that gives you more details about the original movie or TV show. When whoever you’re corresponding with sends a Moji, the details and link only show up after you’ve played the clip. When you send a Moji, the movie/show and watch link show up immediately. In short, these are really just advertisements to buy and rent the content from the Windows Store. I had the opportunity to play around with the feature last night, and Skype’s pitch to studios became quite obvious as well. Mojis are short clips from your favorite movies and TV shows that you can put directly into a Skype chat when words aren’t enough to capture for that “ah-hah,” “haha,” or “yikes” moment. Now, when you send a message on Skype, you can personalize your chat and pull your favorite TV or movie moments in to do the talking for you. Sometimes real life feels like it’s straight out of a movie and mere words just don’t do it justice. Skype says it “handpicked the funniest, craziest, and most iconic moments.” So this is not just a random amalgamation of clips. You can browse by movie, show, or expression preview the Moji and share it directly in your Skype chat. To send a Moji, open up the emoticon picker or tap the J button. Those studios translate to Mojis from the following movies and TV shows: Despicable Me, Bridesmaids, Pitch Perfect, Jurassic Park, Doctor Who, Muppets, and more.
