One of the appealing features that Skype will soon provide the owners of Windows Phone devices with is integration with People Hub, Microsoft has confirmed.

The app was launched on Windows Phone 8 with this feature inside, but it was removed after causing all kinds of issues.

However, it appears that the Redmond-based software giant might have resolved those problems, and that the functionality will return to the mobile app soon.

However, as WMPoweruser notes, no specific info on when the feature will become available again has been provided, or on which devices will receive it.

“Skype integration in people hub is on way... Requires a Skype update, and no I can't say when that's coming,” Microsoft’s Joe Belfiore said in a tweet. More info on this should emerge soon, so stay tuned.
