    @Samosaaraj @WeekendInvestng It's only matter of time if @sundarpichai doesn't fix it, maybe some day Gmail could become Yahoo Mail anytime, this type of money making from retailers must be stopped, charge money for feature not for storage

    HEY YOU! (@melodyscarlett) reported

    @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!

    @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 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! 😡😡😡

    @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

    @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
