Skype For Business Macos Dark Mode

I am a developer and use Dark Theme. How do I make this change in Skype for Business? I see that it can be done in standard Skype but would like it in Business version.

Skype has announced that it is planning to roll out screen sharing to its iOS and Android apps soon. The feature is currently included in the Skype Insider betas. Microsoft did not announce a public release timeframe but features usually roll out within a couple months.

The new feature does what it says on the tin; you can send a live broadcast of your iOS device screen to the other people on the current video call. This works in the background so you can navigate between other apps on your phone and continue the Skype call with screen sharing enabled.

You may be wondering how this works on iOS where the app sandbox model typically prevents access to system functions like access to the screen buffer. However, since iOS 11, Apple added official live broadcasting API that lets third-party apps register as broadcast extensions and interact with the Screen Recording feature.

Users can start a broadcast with the Control Center screen recording button, or directly from inside Skype using a iOS framework button. Apple’s ReplayKit framework presents the same standardized interface that clearly explains to the user what is going to happen, and recording only begins when the user explicitly confirms that they want to start the broadcast.

Once the system picker is dismissed, iOS sends audio and video samples to the broadcast app extension, which Skype then uploads and transmits to the other people in the current conversation.

Screen sharing is in the Skype beta now and should be available to everyone later in the year.

The iPhone’s Portrait Mode, which artificially blurs the background when taking photos of people, has been one of the Camera app’s most popular features. Now Skype background blurring is available in live video calls …

Microsoft says the new feature is rolling out on Mac, Windows and Linux. Here, I’m seeing the update as available on Mac, but the installation is still waiting to start, so looks like it may require some patience.

We’ve all had those moments: You’re about to video call your parents and your laundry is all over the place, or you’re about to have a meeting with a potential investor and your business plan is on a whiteboard behind you, or you’re being interviewed on live television and your adorable child comes marching into the room. There are plenty of life’s moments that can get in the way of you being the focus in every video call—and that’s why we’re introducing background blur in Skype video calls.

Skype For Business Dark Mode

Background blur in Skype is similar to background blur in Microsoft Teams. It takes the stress out of turning on your video and puts the focus where it belongs—on you! With a simple toggle, right-click, or even through your Skype settings, your background will be instantly and subtly blurred, leaving just you as the only focal point.*

Background blur in Skype and Teams uses artificial intelligence (AI)—trained in human form detection—to keep you in focus during your call. This technology is also trained to detect your hair, hands, and arms, making a call with background blur just as relaxed and easy as a regular video call.

To use it, begin a video call then hover over the video button. ‘Blur my background’ will then appear as an option, and you can toggle it on.

There’s no word on when or if Skype background blurring is coming to mobile.

Facebook added a Portrait mode selfie feature toward the end of last year. As it’s an entirely artificial effect, with no use of the True Depth camera system, it works on older iPhones, not just those with Face ID.
