Microsoft is listening to users feedback as the latest Insider build of Skype comes with the highly-requested feature. Skype preview for Windows has been updated to version 8.33.76 and it comes with the Split View mode that would help you chat with multiple people at same time.

Back in August, Microsoft confirmed that Skype version 8 will be updated with all necessary features to bring it on a par with Skype classic. Skype 7 has the Split Window View which allows users to split their chats into their windows. This allows users to conduct multiple conversations (individual or group).

Split View Mode is finally coming to Skype 8 on Windows and it’s exactly how it should look and work.

You enable a special split mode view of Skype by clicking the three dots menu. Once enabled, you will notice that the recent conversations are displayed in a narrow window. The conversation will now appeal in an independent window if you tap on it from the list or an incoming notification.

The opened conversations would display individually in the taskbar. At the moment, the new version of Skype is only available for the Insiders and you can join the Insider program from the Settings menu.
