Skype iPhone app URL scheme

I've been using the skype:username?call URL scheme to launch the Skype app directly into a call, and was about to implement the skype:username?chat URL scheme to launch it directoy into chat... although the chat scheme is not working at all on the iPhone, and other tests seem to indicate that the call scheme is currently the only one that actually does work out of the many others I've seen documentation for. I conducted a test a few weeks ago and could have sworn that the chat scheme WAS working, then I upgraded to their new app release and it's gone.

Was I just seeing things and it was never there? Or did it really just disappear in this latest release? I posted this to the Skype forums, which has still not recieved a single reply, and barely even any views, for over开发者_开发知识库 a week now.

Thanks.

Microsoft states in their Skype URI tutorial for iOS:

With the recent redesign of the Skype for iOS client, URIs are not currently supported on the Skype for iOS 5.x branch.

Unfortunately, the Skype app still registers the skype: URL scheme (but doesn't actually do anything except launching the app) so we can't even check if the problem has been resolved.

Have you tried it on a few devices and with different versions of the iOS Skype software?

It seems as though that should be working. I use handleopenurl often for looking up app specific url schemes and they seem to have the chat url you listed under their listing for skype.
