Microsoft is also providing users with the new Skype app that is already available for PCs.
The new Skype Preview application was created to replace the existing Skype application, so if you already have the old version running, the transition should happen automatically.
If that hasn't happened, you can always head to the Windows Store and download the new Skype like you would any other app.
Microsoft claims that bringing the new Skype app directly to Windows 10 Mobile brings a number of benefits, including support for quick replies right from the action center.
But while the new Skype app is available for Windows 10 Mobile devices running the Anniversary Update, Windows Mobile users are set to lose the app entirely as Microsoft transitions to a new architecture that no longer supports older clients.
Starting in early 2017, Skype will now be available for Windows phones, and there won't be any way to change that, even though only 12 percent of devices are said to be running Windows 10 Mobile. That means Microsoft is leaving more than 80 percent of Windows phone users behind in a decision that raises several questions about the company's plans for the smartphone platform.
