@yahoomail Really unhappy with the latest update to the Yahoo Mail app! I paid for the app because I liked the layout and ease. New layout is not user friendly and too much like AOL mail. Please stop changing things that aren't broken! 😡😡😡

@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.

@_LNicole @yahoomail @Yahoo Same problem, nothing works, cleared cache, reinstalled, no dice
Ray Ellis (@RunOnTheMind) reported 34 minutes ago
@yahoomail this latest update is rubbish. The font is dreadful and difficult to read and the new design is not at all helpful. The old version was great and did the job well. This is rubbish. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Please stop tinkering and give us the old version back.

@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

@TelecomTalk My internet journey started in 2004, at that time I used to spend 30 rs for half an hour to surf the internet, I remember that time dial up internet is very slow which I used only for chatting in Orkut, Yahoo Mail, Yahoo Messenger, AOL Messenger, Skype

@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 🙏🇦🇺

@yahoomail if there’s a problem with generating codes for email recovery you should at least tell your users so that we can switch on to another serious mail service…what’s this madness all about in sending out codes for text messages
Dustin HyperShadow92 (@HyperShadow92) reported 55 minutes ago
Is it just me or is Yahoo Mail like down or something? I can’t even get nothing to work or load for checking emails.
Fatih T (@gimivhetsupar1) reported 55 minutes ago
@yahoomail @Yahoo I am writing to request urgent assistance regarding a login issue that has locked me out of my accounts. I know my passwords for both of my Yahoo accounts, but the system insists on a secondary verification step by sending a code to the recovery email address.
HEY YOU! (@melodyscarlett) reported 58 minutes ago
@LeperMessiah18 @yahoomail They asked me to contact them via DM, which I did. This is what they said: "Thank you for sharing this information. We recommend checking the app again later, as this may be a temporary bug. We apologize for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you" App STILL not working!

I haven’t received any email in my @Yahoo mail account since 3/26/26! Anyone else??? Any fix ideas???
Rob (@TheBarcs) reported 59 minutes ago
@yahoomail I have multiple email addresses with you. emailA is now trying to send a verification code to emailB, but emailB is trying to send a code to emailA, so neither can be accessed. Is the only solution to call the phone number that says it's a paid service? I'm in trouble

@yahoomail 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

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