    @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 🙏🇦🇺

    @TextNowHelp I do not receive the verification code to login on yahoo mail(not in spam/blacklisted). Works fine on my gmail back up.

    @sidrachain It seems the kycport status verification you came up with is only meant for the Gmail and Microsoft users. Those of us that registered our sidra account with Yahoo mail are not able to login to the kycport because of the unavailability of the otp. Pls see to this.

    @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

    @sidrachain I can't login with my registered yahoo email, if I use Gmail instead, it directs me to start verification again on a new account, my account has been verified fully, why can't I gain access back into my already existing account? Codes are not been sent to my registered yahoo mail

    @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.

    @DamisarSiberia @Emmykinng @instablog9ja Bro Shut up either way you can still use your gmail to login yahoo mail, Hotmail or whatever mail so stop giving excuse.

    @yahoomail @Yahoo Hey there, Yahoo buddies. So, you’re clamping down on available email storage… which is fair enough, but the page to subscribe to get more storage doesn’t work….. which is not fair enough. Pretty please sort out the page or don’t charge for it. Cheers!

    DO 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

    @Masterji_UPWale @sanjayuvacha I am using Yahoomail for 20 yrs and it's the worst with worst UI and funny thing is it's asking money to fix it's worst UI to make inbox look more organized than spam, ADs they send on regular basis

    @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.

    @yahoomail Second DM while her email is working on her laptop running windows 10, it’s telling her it’s not working on her iPad! And it’s repeating the statement that she can’t send or receive emails, which appears not to be true. Please get this sorted properly!

    @whodeyonline Why can't I login with my Yahoo mail??? Must I only sign in using Gmail now???

  • IanSnowWriter
    Ian Snow, ****'s Dickens of **** (@IanSnowWriter) reported

    Here'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, there's no opt-out for the bundling, 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?

    Most 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.
