VacationHomesOnly.com (@vhoinc) reported@YahooCare @Todd_Spence @YahooCare the Android Yahoo mail app update ruined the search function. I can no longer edit my search terms and have to start over every time. Please fix this!" I search my email using search strings to find specific things, people, and correspondence. I was able to modify my search strings and quickly try the search again. Can no longer do that. Now have to type out a whole new search string every time I need to modify it....terrible. Productivity Killer. #EmailSearch #YahooMail

JP (@JPatts19) reported@Pokemallu @pokemondealsuk I’m the same as you, actively use Yahoo mail and signed up multiple times and followed the advice re not receiving them. Maybe a Yahoo issue. FYI if you go to your contacts on either the app or webpage you can just add the email address.

Adedayo Oluyemisi Adesola (née Adejobi) (@ladydee2024) reportedMost people "fled" from using Yahoo mail once "Yahoo Yahoo" became the moniker for Nigerian internet fraudsters and scammers. Occurred to me recently that I never had a problem with Yahoo and will probably create a Yahoo account again too. Gmail is stressing me out as well, constantly asking me to buy more storage.

WALTER PARADA (@WalterParada) reportedDO NOT expect @YahooCare to help resolve ANY issue especially with your email!! These incompetent ******** will only re-route you to their ****** website where they’ll just repeat previous inefficient steps with ZERO resolution. What pieces of ****!! #YahooMail #YahooEmail

NinjyTheCanadian (@NinjyTheDumbass) reported@iKodeZero that sounds like just a gmail issue, try out Hotmail or Yahoo mail next (yes they still exist)
-
Ray Ellis (@RunOnTheMind) reported@yahoomail @MrNJ39 Agreed. This version is rubbish. The font is dreadful and is counter intuitive. The previous version was fine. Nothing wrong with it. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. It wasn’t. Please give us the old, good version back.
-
Donald (@Donaldbounds) reported@Yahoomail horrible email provided. Constantly having issue with it. It will just decide to be off line. I wish I never had yahoo mail which was another blunder by @ATT crazy and you cannot get help from #Yahoo. DO NOT EVER USE YAHOO. THEY ALSO WILL REMOVE 1,000S OF EMAILS.

Emmanuel OBISESAN (@el_obisesan) reportedThe new yahoo mail layout is terrible ngl

Ian Snow, ****'s Dickens of **** (@IanSnowWriter) reportedHere's an example of bad overengineering. The @Yahoo Mail app has started sorting emails you frequently delete into bundles so you can delete them faster - which are all hidden under a drop-down from the rest of your emails, adding an extra step to go through to delete emails one by one. It doesn't matter if you regularly read these emails, they're all lumped together anyways. Now here are the really annoying parts about that - one, it's an automatic setting, withno opt-out feature, meaning you're stuck with that ****** sorting feature. Two, when you delete emails manually, on occasion, emails in this group will completely disappear. So far, they've come back later, but this is an enormous pain in the *** that no one asked for and can't opt out of. So why? What's the point of this? Why does Yahoo mail insist on these autosorting features like this that constantly hide away emails, the entire reason you'd use the service?

MysticUnigon 💚💜 (@MysticUnigon) reported@streamlabs fix your ****! I just want to edit videos, but it makes no sense that I can sign in to livestream and not to do that?! I tried 10 times to have a code sent to my email and nothing! Unless @yahoomail is down, I don't know why you have to make things so complicated!

Rodney Latstetter (@rodwlatstetter) reportedFOR YEARS I'VE RELIED ON @yahoomail FOR ALL MY EMAIL NEEDS, BUT ITS RELIABILITY HAS FALLEN IN THE PROVERBIAL SHITTER! I CAN'T REMEMBER HOW MANY PASSWORDS, PASSCODES AND TEXT VERIFICATIONS FOLLOWED BY CONFIRMATIONS ON BACKUP EMAIL ACCOUNTS ARE REQUIRED NOW BUT I GET ALL THE CODES, AND IT ALWAYS TAKES A ****, I THINK, IT'S AT THE 75TH PASSWORD LEVEL. HELL I CANNOT KEEP UP WITH THEM NOW. NOW I HAVE TO BLOW A DAY TRYING TO FIND SOMEBODY THAT SPEAKS ENGLISH SO I CAN FIGURE OUT WTF IS GOING ON. THE IPHONE APP NO LONGER WORKS, AND I CANNOT LOGIN VIA THE DESKTOP NOW. THIS ABSOLUTELY SUCKS!
