The company in its official blog post states that "Now you can share a holiday video and go straight back to the beach, knowing that your friends and family can download the video whenever they come online."
The official team accepts that it had been conducting different tests checking out the maximum file size that can be supported by the software without any issues and post conduction states that, "Based on the results of these tests, we are setting a limit of 300MB per file as this accommodates almost all the file sizes shared over Skype and has been working well for our millions of users since it started rolling out several weeks ago."
Taking into consideration the woes of users who wish to send files over 300MB capacity, the team has suggested its users to make use of OneDrive for sharing bigger files.
Not just this, the software will now also users to download a file on multiple devices. Skype explains the phenomenon by stating, "Imagine you're on your way home and want to start reviewing a PowerPoint document on your phone, and then download it again to make edits on a computer at home." and this would now be possible thanks to the new update.
