Second, we are adding support in the desktop app for uploading and downloading attachments in meetings, a feature that is available in SMA. This timing is also dependent on your network connection. The desktop app is larger than SMA, so the download takes 5-10 seconds longer on average. We are also making two changes to the desktop app in companion with this change:įirst, we are reducing the size of the desktop app installer. The app has also been optimized to work well with macOS 10.14 (Mojave), including Dark Mode. Screen sharing from the Mac uses Video-based Screen Sharing (VbSS), which is faster and more reliable than Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) used by SMA. The meeting experience is built around a larger and more immersive display of video and shared content.

In October, 2018, we announced a plan to offer the Skype for Business desktop app on Mac as our web-downloadable meetings client instead of Skype Meetings App, starting in December.
