Very simple.  Skype has it’s value, sure, but no app on your phone should be this hard to disable or enable.  You MUST be able to quit any app from within ANY window.  On the Android version you are forced to back out of 4 windows, then after selecting quit it still gives you a prompt asking about some options for the next time you startup the app. I just don’t understand the chutzpa of Skype, Facebook, and Google.  They insist upon moving forward with these various decisions IN SPITE of the majority of users being against.  Skype with the controlling software, Facebook with Timeline, Google with the blatant disregard for privacy of any kind.  These moves are the seeds of their inevitable failure.  Sure we need them now, but just as soon as there is an alternative…. Goodbye!

Alright, I digress.

The fix.  I need someone to just make a Skype toggle.  I want to see a light blue “S”.  When I tap it it should engage Skype.  When I tap it again, it should disable it.  I don’t think that’s too hard.  Put some graphic in there so I know it’s on or off as I’m tapping it. Skype already will put an icon in the top of my display to remind me it’s running, but yeah, that’s it – a basic toggle.  Just like my airplane mode, wifi, or GPS toggle.  I would chip in 100.00 to the developer if they reached out to me, and made this happen.  I have several other valuable additions I would like to see with it as well, but they are all just icing on the cake.

Anyone?
