New Xbox One Update Allows You to Snap Skype While Gaming

4.7
One of the biggest flaws of the Xbox One version of Skype was the inability to snap it to the side while gaming.
Luckily, Microsoft just rolled out a new patch that allows you to do just that, letting you chat with your friends on the side while playing Titanfall or using other apps.
All you have to do to enable the feature is to access Skype on the console, and you’ll automatically be prompted to update it.

TTG_ANTIxPIMP I accidentally found a flaw in Microsoft/Skypes security after trying out skype. I use a gamertag that me and my brother made over 6 years ago, and he used his email to make it. so when I used the skype app on xbox it automatically signed in to skype under his email and didnt require a password o.O


Obviously, it's an ecosystem obviously it's going to sign you into his email on his account... It does the same with everyone.

Tell Microsoft they might reward you with 20 99cent games and a month of membership. ;)
