    Not sure if I was the only one but Skype was really laggy on my Z10 running 10.1 . It was so bad that I decided to try and side load Skype 4.x from the Google App store using the xSacha method (the apps seem to run really smoothly when side loading using xSacha).

    Anyway, I deleted Skype from BlackBerry World and tried to side load. Unfortunately the side load failed (the app wouldn't launch). So I reinstalled Skype from BlackBerry World and I noticed that the reinstall has solved some of the peformance issues. The app seems much more responsive and significantly more usable now.

    anyone else experience this? Or am I just imaging this improved experience with Skype after a reinstall?

    Skype is finally usable for me as well. Not sure if it's because of the 10.2 leak i'm using or if they've made an update.
