Skype For Mac Mojave Review: Skype is a complimentary calling app that enables video and voice conversation as well as instant messaging. It's very simple to use and it has an intuitive interface.
Make sure your computer will support Skype for Business: OS X El Capitan (10.11) or newer is required. Skype for Business 16.22 or newer is required for macOS Mojave; Outlook Mac build 15.27 (161010) or newer required for Outlook integration; Make sure your computer is fully patched with security and software updates.
Question: Q: Mojave blocking mic access for Skype for Business Web App Since the Mojave update which introduced privacy controls for the Microphone I am unable to use the Skype for Business Web App. It doesn't ask for mic permissions and there is no way in the GUI to add the application manually.

Skype for Business on Mac is the all new client that provides great communication experiences for Apple users. Features like one-click join, edge-to-edge video, and full screen sharing give you a superior Skype Meetings experience.

Yes, I have this same issue. I downloaded Mojave and Skype doesn't connect, and/or the other party can't hear me (on IOS12 and my iPhone10.) So looks like Apple is trying to block out Microsoft and Google, unwittingly, or purposefully?

I Use Skype, FaceTime, Google Hangout, all regularly for clients. I preferred Skype because of the field of view is largest, whereas FT was often smaller. Mojave not working with these is a HUGE problem for me. I guess I should uninstall Mojave? Maybe IOS12, too? The Animoji on IOS12 is cute in Imessages, but it used to be synched to my Macbook Pro messages, but after installing IOS12, my laptop Imessages could receive, but wouldn't send. So that is why I upgraded to Mojave, but that has caused a lot more issues with Video Chats that aren't Apple.
