  1. Get rid of ads across the bottom of the page

    Your new ad across the bottom of the page is a really bad idea. What's next? Another ad above it making just one email subject line visible?

  2. Calendar

    I wish I could restore my old Calendar full view. It was perfect, and much more functional than the new view which I do not like at all.

  3. Ads with fake checkboxes are deceptive!

    I've noticed a lot more ads in the email folder/list view that have fake checkboxes. If you are trying to clean up emails, it is easy to accidentally click on one of these ads and open a new window/tab. I see this as a deceptive practice on the part of Yahoo Mail because it creates a perception that a customer is purposefully going to that ad. I recommend that you remove the fake checkboxes on ads. Thanks for listening!

  4. Please allow Planner function to be disabled

    Please allow users to toggle off the planner function. Some of us are very happy with existing calendars and find the Yahoo version to be an unreasonable intrusion with your scanning of our emails

  5. Language translation feature not available in Yahoo Mail

    Hello, I order some goods from a dutch company and the confirmation email sent was written in dutch. Yahoo mail UI should have the feature which translates the dutch text into english text.

  6. Contact edit does not work and cannot add new contact

    Cannot view anything on contacts but first and middle name when you enter for new contact or to modify existing contact. No way to edit email address. Cannot add new email address. Tried to send you a picture so you could see. No ability to scroll down to enter information on contact. Yahoo is not the application it once was.

  9. Don't show "0" next to folders with no new mail.

    Don't show "0" next to folders with no new mail. Only show number of unread messages. Any number next to a mailbox acts as an alert. In this case, 0 is a false-alert. Only show a number when there is one or more unread messages.

  10. Photophobia

    My suggestion is for people who suffer from photophobia, like me. I wish it were possible to customize the background color for reading emails (to give one example). If it were possible to change the background to black and the text to light gray, that would be great for me—and I think for everyone else who has the same problem.

  13. Column on the right takes up too much space

    I'm sticking to the old layout as I can shrink the right-hand column. However, this is still annoying as it doesn't stay shrunk / compacted. Is there a setting to change this somewhere so it defaults to staying compacted until I want it (if ever)?
    This would be useful for both the old AND new layouts.

  14. Yahoo Calendar Feedback

    Please please please change interface to word wrap on Yahoo Calendar on the Month View. I've been using Yahoo Calendar for over 23 years and It use to look like that. It was so nice to be able to view everything every day on the Month View.
    Please please please make that an option again

    Thank you so much and wishing you a good day! Warm regards, Jayne Galvin

  16. Can't delete notifications

    This is where social media team referred me. This is a Yahoo Mail app notification issue. If it's wrong place my apologies. The new email app is fine but I can no longer delete an email from within the email notification in the status bar. It's been an issue for several days. The star and mark as read options aren't reacting either. My Yahoo Mail app is up to date. It's version 10.6.0 and I'm using a Samsung S22+ with Android version 16. Thank you
