Skype pushed out an update for its iOS app, which brings only a few improvements the most important of which is support for HD video calling. It only works on the iPad 4, though.

Owners of other iGadgets also have reason update – the Skype v4.1 brings improvements to the call quality and stability. Also, the country code picker has been redesigned.

Early this year Skype released an update for the Windows Phone 8 app and added support for 720p video calls on the high-end phones, but those aren’t all that more powerful than an iPhone 5, so I don’t know what prevented Skype for including the Apple phone (which uses a chipset similar to the iPad 4).
