    @YahooCare Hi @YahooCare, on iPhone using Yahoo Mail v26.13.0: folders (Inbox, Sent, Drafts, Spam, Trash, Archive) are inaccessible, and the new folder switcher (Inbox icon with ↑↓ bottom-left) is unresponsive. Please fix or add a classic folder view. Cheers 🙏🇦🇺

    @status_is_down My yahoo mail is a mess. Ever tried getting any REAL assistance/advice from yahoo? You can't. They don't want to assist customers in any way. After about 15 yrs I'm going to have to shut it down and move away from yahoo.

    @DowndetectorUK Desktop mail + mobile app on 2 devices taking way too long to connect and load mails. File folders also slow (spinning circle). Just a week or so since the last major issue with v26.13.0 app for iOS as well (fixed with .1 update). Pls advise @YahooCare @yahoomail

    @Yahoo what is going on with your mail?! I have not been able to send or receive emails in over 5 hours. This morning it said “error” with no additional information, and now it just says it’s fully up to date when it’s not. I have tried from both an iPhone & laptop. #yahoomail

    @SoveyX Comcast/Xfinity is moving their email accounts to Yahoo Mail. "To upgrade user experience and reduce internal operation costs". I'll pass. FYI.

    @yahoomail @Yahoo 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.

    @_renatov @thesamparr Yahoo runs a huge digital media and advertising business. Core products: Yahoo Mail (still one of the biggest email services), Yahoo Finance, Yahoo Sports/Fantasy, News, and Search. They make most of their billions from targeted online ads. In 2026 they're doubling down on AI with "Yahoo Scout" to turn user data from mail/search/content into smarter ad targeting and answers. Still very much alive and profitable.

    @olo2mide @dozieohaeri @seunonigbinde Let me show you why Nigeria is hopeless simply because we are this dvmb. You went to a Yahoo Mail server, imputed a publicly available email address, went to forgot password and saw that a publicly available number is its backup number and boom- you came to a conclusion that a number and email is connected to a Twitter account, where does Twitter come in at all? I mean, where is the connection?

    @craigy1977 @LeilaniDowding If you have the yahoo mail iPhone app on your phone then go on to it and then click top left on your email address or initials then the menu will appear and it shows you half way down under storage.
