I added it to Skype yet it says "You cannot send messages to this conversation". Am I not hip enough?

@helge the Skype bot platform is still in beta and works pretty fine in the native apps (mobile and desktop)

@electrobabe I updated Skype and had to re-add Mica consequently. Problem persists. I guess Microsoft's bot platform is still buggy.

I added it to Skype on my Windows PC and it worked great! But when I'm using the Skype app on Windows Phone I don't see the contact. Do you think I just need to wait (synchronization issues?) or are bots treated differently by Skype and don't show up on the Skype app? I tried to update the Skype app on the phone but I've already got the latest version. I tried adding it to my "favorites" on Skype then killing and restarting the Skype app but it still didn't show up. Thanks!

@adrian_smith I had a similar experience the other way round. Wasn't able to write to the cat on Skype for Mac and had to add it on Skype for iOS. From then on it showed up in Skype for Web (after messaging the cat on iOS) but it seems like I can only write to it on iOS right now 😅 Maybe the bots are treated different than normal contacts? I expect this will be a more polished experience in the future. 😅

@adrian_smith hi, the Skype platform is still in Beta so some features do not work at this point of time and the onboarding process needs some improvement... nevertheless, the chat experience works great on your mobile phone with the Skype app and also with the desktop app!

Can you give us an idea of how the bot looks like on Skype? Just in case someone doesn't have it installed right now? 😅

I don't use Skype on my phone, but I've chatted with Mica on FB messenger. Are we going to hear or see more of the hipster cat someplace else? Any plans to take over the digital world? :)

@glamgeekgirl Pawesome! :) Sure, I'm permanently developing new features for the chatbot and am now thinking about launching on WeChat or Telegram to offer an even larger group of users a good experience.

Messenger 🤖 bots are the new apps 📱. No need to install anything, no need to figure out which app to remove to free up storage, low friction interaction. Also apparently a lot of the bots are 😽 cats (see Poncho the 🌦 weather cat). This is a new version of the hipster cat bot on the Skype platform. It gives you recommendations of hip restaurants, bars and cafes to check out.

I really thought that I knew where I can for lunch or dinner around my area, but the hipster cat proved that I was wrong. And I like the cat gimmick. :)
