    @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 🙏🇦🇺

    @MrNJ39 @yahoomail 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.

    @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?

    @_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.

    @hillyDavid_72 @YahooCare Same problem here (also UK). Sub-folder menu opens when pressing Inbox icon on iPad but inactive on iPhone. I’m sure it was working yesterday (Sunday). Webmail folders unaffected. Seems like a widespread app update issue. Please sort @yahoomail

    from Yahoo Mail, and most of the information you guys are bringing up is in the public domain. Then again you people are doing like the problem in ADC will move away if Amupitan is gone. But like 2023 this seems like a war to you guys and everything is fair in war

    @iKodeZero that sounds like just a gmail issue, try out Hotmail or Yahoo mail next (yes they still exist)

  • 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?

    @YahooCare Hello, Im having trouble logging into my yahoo mail. I have forgotten my password and haven’t got the phone numbers linked to the yahoo account. I tried recovering the number but Vodafone said the number isn’t available. I would like to find a way around this please.
