Microsoft launches Skype Lite for India Microsoft has launched Skype Lite, a new version of the video and voice-calling app designed for the Indian market. The download weighs in at 13MB, and the app is designed to work better on 2G or unstable connections, making it more reliable in many parts of India. Microsoft says Skype Lite will consume less battery power and run smoothly even on old Android phones, and there’s a mode that reduces data usage in video calls. Just a few months after Facebook Lite launched in the same region (and went worldwide). It's good to see tech companies realising their big growth lies in bandwidth challenged areas, and then adapting products to suite these markets. See http://ift.tt/2maLxlh
