Skype's Android users will now be able to blur their background during a video call.

An update from Microsoft recently added background blur support for Skype's Android users.

This update will be available to users using phones with Android Marshmallow (6.0) and above operating systems.
This feature has been available to iOS users for 2 years and has now been rolled out to Android devices.

In fact, this feature is also available on Windows, Mac OS, and Linux operating systems.

Blurring the background will only show the user's face while blurring everything behind, the company has used machine learning and edge detection technology for this purpose.

This feature is also easy to disable, go to the 3 dot menu during a call in Skype and click on 'Blur my background'.

This feature will blur not only the static but also the moving objects and people and only the face will be clearly visible.

Another feature in Skype has been added to this update.

According to the company, when you receive an instant message, a smiling face appears in front of it and by clicking on it, various emoji reactions can be used.
