The Skype for Business Mobile app is a convenient and efficient way to communicate and collaborate with others. With this app, you can easily initiate group instant messaging or video conversations and invite others to join. You can also join, rejoin, and initiate Skype for Business meetings to share and discuss amazing ideas with your team.
During a conference, you can share your own video and view the video of the speaker, making it feel like you are all in the same room. You also have the ability to control the meeting by muting or removing attendees, as well as view information about the participants' availability and communication preferences.
The app also allows you to easily access your upcoming meetings with just one click, making it easy to stay on top of your schedule. You can also pick up recent conversations from where you left off, making it easy to continue discussions and stay organized.
In addition, the app offers a search function for your contacts, allowing you to quickly find and connect with others by name, email, or phone number. This makes it easy to stay in touch with your colleagues and clients.
One of the key features of the Skype for Business Mobile app is its enhanced security through the use of Active Directory Authentication Library (ADAL). This ensures that your conversations and information are kept safe and secure.
It's important to note that while anyone can use the app when invited to a Skype for Business or Lync 2013 meeting, a Skype for Business or Lync account is required to fully utilize all of the app's capabilities. Some features may also require updates to Lync or Skype for Business Server, and may not be available to all users. If you are unsure about your account status, it's best to contact your IT department for assistance.
Lastly, it's worth mentioning that the Skype for Business Mobile app is only available for Android 4.0 or higher. It also requires connectivity to validly licensed copies of Microsoft Lync or Skype for Business Server, or Office 365/Lync Online/Skype for Business Online in order to function properly. If you are unsure about your company's license or deployment of Lync or Skype for Business, it's best to consult with your IT department for clarification.
