New Yahoo email app

niceguy1966 · 15-12-2012, 00:10

I just installed the latest Yahoo mail app for Android. It's very purple and switching between accounts seems to be less convenient (the new PC GUI is also very purple).

I'm still trying to work out if I like it or not. I'd love to hear other people's opinions and if you've found anything in the new version that is better than before (because so far, I haven't).

This might be the final straw that moves me over to gmail as my main email service after 15 years with the same Yahoo account.

I don't like it very much (iOS user). Yes, I can see if I have any emails in my folders without having to open each one first, but that's about the only plus point of it. No multi account setup is a bit odd too.

Visually I think it's an improvement on the previous version however I'm no longer getting notifications on my SGS2 and Nexus 7

I've found another advantage. You can now select and delete multiple emails. Before you had to delete them one at a time. Still not as convenient as swiping them away as in gmail, but better than before.
