    @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

    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!

    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, it's an automatic setting, withno opt-out feature, 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?

    @Masterji_UPWale Most people "fled" from using Yahoo mail once "Yahoo Yahoo" became the moniker for Nigerian internet fraudsters and scammers. I never had a problem with Yahoo and will probably create a Yahoo account again too. Gmail is stressing me out too, constantly asking me to buy more storage.

    @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

    @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 🙏🇦🇺
