It quietly sits in the System Tray whenever you're logged in and pops out every time you receive a new message or video call.

Just like its standard sibling, Portable Skype has a minimum footprint on computer resources, requiring just a small amount of CPU and RAM to work properly. You can thus start a video chat with anyone in the world, no matter the location, as long as he or she is connected to the Internet. While all the contacts are nicely displayed in the contact list, a right click on any contact enables you to send a message, start a video call, transfer files or even send SMS messages at low rates.īut the number one strong point is still the video quality it provides, as Portable Skype excels when it comes to this particular aspect.

The interface is the same we've seen in the standard version, which means it remains clean and straightforward, with a rich settings menu that comprises tons of features and allows you to set up every single part of the tool. Portable Skype requires you to log in with your username and password before providing access to instant messaging, video and phone calling tools. This particular version sports the same features as the full release, but instead it can be easily copied on a USB flash drive and started from there without the need for transferring the files back on hard disk. SPortable is the on-the-go version of the famous Skype application that provides advanced instant messaging, video calling and phone calling features.
