Skype Wifi is a tool that allows us to surf the internet from where we are making use of our Skyp credite to connect to access points throughout the world. This tool is ideal if for work we find ourselves in the need to travel continuously and we do not want to waste time looking for access points and making use of our credit card. But as Microsoft has announced this application is about to stop working. The Redmond-based company has just announced that Skype Wifi will stop working and be available for download on March 31.
From that date, the application will no longer provide us with information about internet access points. Skype Wifi makes use of the credit from our Skype account to pay for these services, so if you used this function exclusively, you will be forced to spend the remaining credit making calls to landlines or mobiles in any country in the world at very low prices. affordable and with excellent sound quality.
According to Microsoft the company wants to coordinate its efforts to offer the best possible experience through Skype. Most likely, this service was not profitable today and it does not make sense to maintain a service through an application that is not generating income, or those that it generates hardly cover maintenance costs. Keep in mind that more and more establishments offer a free internet connection, so it is no longer necessary to have to pay to access the internet like a few years ago.
In addition, both in the App Store and in Google Play we can find various applications that allow us find establishments where we can connect to the internet for free that are close to our location.
