Windows Mobile: Skype does not run on “Tango”

The weekend released version 1.0 of Skype for Windows Mobile goes according to the developers, not on low-end devices. Skype calls the lack of support for the entry-level models a “known problem”.

Skype for Windows Mobile 1.0 is available since Sunday as a free download on the official App marketplace for Microsoft’s mobile operating system. Only now, however, the developers have specific information about the features and limitations of the first edition of the final released Windows Phone app.

Among other things, they point out that Skype works only on devices with 512 megabytes of RAM. This restriction ensures that Skype on Windows phones like the Nokia 610 or the ZTE Lumia Tania can not be used because these models with the latest edition of the operating system, code-named “Tango” has only 256 MB of RAM.

It is still unclear whether support Skype for Windows Mobile in the future, the low-end smartphones. The version 1.0 of the official Skype app for the time being can therefore only be used with sufficient memory on the smartphone models previously published. Even if the particular phone is so equipped, there are a few other missing features.

Thus, the sending of SMS through Skype to the Windows Mobile app is not possible. Also the Skype app is not running in the background so that you can receive messages and calls while running other apps or just the phone is not used.
