Users of Skype for iOS can now use the app while using another app simultaneously. Taking advantage of the new feature of iOS 9, you can do your Skype chat while searching or doing another task in one split screen.

Skype also has two new features with its latest update. One is the ability to reply to a message through the notification banner without opening the app. Just make sure to allow Skype notifications in your iOS settings. And, you can also begin a chat by just searching your Skype contact directly from Spotlight.
