In build 10536 onwards, should we use the Messaging app instead of Messaging Skype Preview?

[Windows Central Question]

In build 10536 onwards should we use the "Messaging" app instead of "Messaging Skype Preview"

I noticed that the "Messaging" app now has a dropdown for Skype, which I don't think it did before.

It also has another feature in portrait mode that "Messaging Skype Preview" doesn't have, where it shows recent contacts on the left when you are in a message thread (The screen where you write a new message)

Is this because "Messaging" has now been updated to include Skype chat and Video, and we should remove "Messaging Skype Preview" going forwards?

yes probably is does make more sense to have a unified app rather than two apps for similar purposes. so going forward, we will see only a messaging app for sure. Skype maybe an optional download.
