Bots arrive to Skype In Your New Update For iOS

During the 2016 Microsoft Build conference for developers, which took place during yesterday, Microsoft announced its intentions to bring interactive robots platform Skype on Windows, Android and iOS. That's why from just a few hours, just over a month ago since their last update , users of Skype for iOS will have access to search engines that offer answers, products, services and entertainment through instant messaging options in the famous messaging application.


Microsoft is introducing search engines within Skype and with it, a new way to provide knowledge, products, services and entertainment messages from its users through its application. Each Bot will be able to enhance the Skype experience in their own way, and will have the ability to offer a new dimension in chats, helping to make each of the ideas and plans into real action.

Available robots that can interact in iOS music include Bing, Bing Bing news and images. Bing music is able to perform a search on several sites to find information about the song or artist you want, while the bot Bing Bing images and news are designed for web browsing.

Skype evolves through Cortana

With the SDK to create bots Skype, all companies and developers will be able to create robots that work through the messaging application. The Microsoft Bot Framework has everything you need to start creating each of the bots, and Cortana is responsible for everything to work as it should.

In the future, Skype plans to expand the availability of their bots for audio and video calls, so that users can reach new experiences based on interaction with these robots for them. During the conference yesterday we saw an example of video search engine Skype.

To access the Skype messaging robots, iOS users will have to download the latest version of the application. It should be noted, as indicated from MacRumors , these robots can be added through the "Search" option from the contact page, which includes an option to add sympathetic "friends" who can help us on many occasions.

Best of all is that, as you probably know the vast majority can download Skype totally free from the App Store. If you have not tried it yet, what do you expect?
