@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.

@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! 😡😡😡

@YahooCare @yahoomail @yahoo Good morning Yahoo! Why aren't I receiving text messages (SMS) to my mobile phone number in Türkiye to recover my email address? Is Yahoo Mail shutting down? Why are you so indifferent?

@UIDAI Is it possible to change the e-mail id online? Because yahoo mail is getting login issues off late. Most official emails are on yahoomail. If possible kindly bring the change of email id on Aadhaar portal/ maadhaar app /aadhaar app. Thank you.

@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

@yahoomail @Yahoo It's a terrible update! Inbox - can't see full name of sender or title of email but see so much of the message. Stays that way even when I switch message preview settings. I want inbox to show key details of the sender and subject. I'll open it to read the detail of the message!

@YahooCare I’m unable to access the sub folders, inbox icon is unresponsive. Unable to access sent items, spam, etc. I’m using an iPhone with the latest version. I also uninstall reinstall the Yahoo Mail app, didn’t fixed the issue. Also restarted the phone, no luck. Pls fix it

@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
