Do you guys ever do test run?
When you change the format. Do you guys ever try it to check if it is user friendly? I don’t think your crews do. When I want view my comment it tells me to sign in to view. But my username is already there on top, however your IT genius never able the link. So nothing happen when I click it.

My News
I want to read stories that I’m interested in, not those of someone else!

Don’t force me to download an app!
Maybe you should let me continue to use your website to respond to comments instead of forcing me to download an app that can’t even manage to open to any page except the home page. When I click on a reddit link, it opens in the reddit app and I don’t have to try to search for it again. Not true with the Yahoo app. Absolutely useless.

Notifications
Please put notifications somewhere on the main page so as to more easily access them. Making me click through two different pages is not a very good design choice

“Less of these stories” option needs to come back
Put back the “less of these” kind of stories option again!
I don’t want to read about hood rats and skeezers. I want the option to see what I want -
Notifications are just for likes and reactions
Please make all comments made also put in your notification box, so when I click on my avatar, I can see my entire recent history. Not just reactions and total likes and comments.

Can you stop with everything Trump. More world news
More world news and no more political stuff.

I can’t read any of my postings
I can’t read any post.
I keep getting this (Oops, something went wrong) -
Your article on a shooting that occurred at the Nipsey Hussle procession is not correct. 103 St. and main St. were not on the route.
Please issue a correction. We don’t want to promote fake news do we?

Clicking on “breaking news” notification takes to general news
When I get a notification of “breaking news” or some other item, clicking on it takes me to a general news page, and the item I clicked on is either buried, or can’t be found at all!

Categories
I don’t want to use YOUR categories. You also keep adding categories I have no interest in.

You STILL didn’t answer
You STILL haven’t addressed my problem of no name responses. It is happening again. Just admit you have no idea what or why -

Your “answer” by posting the link to the same things I have read and gone over several times is NOT the answer. I realize you tend to not like anyone that is not liberal which is shown by your biased articles but at least try to help when there are problems with your app. You posted that same exact link to me once before and it did NOTHING to answer my question or fix the
problem. I have changed passwords logged out
and then back in and never have trouble logging back in. But the problems stays - but then… -
Yahoo!, enforce you own Term of Service
Countries where Holocaust denial is a crime include Austria, Australia, Belgium, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Lichtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Spain and Switzerland. As far as Yahoo is concerned, it is certainly “objectionable content”, a “false statement, “hateful, or racially, ethnically, or otherwise objectionable”, a “violation of applicable laws or regulations” (in 16 countries), all of which violate Yahoo Terms of Service. As such, users who post Holocaust denial should have their Yahoo account terminated.

Offer different format
I used to check your news app several times daily but since your format changed the last few months, it provides very limited information so I’m now looking for a new app. Your new format seems to only cover a limited list of main topics, most of which are political. I wish your format was still similar to your previous one.

Auto play videos
Have it set to never auto play videos but since the last 2 updates they auto play anyway. Guess yahoo knows best. Why have the setting when it doesn’t do anything?

Geographical locked news
Since I upgraded my iPhone from a 6 to a 7, all the news that I can browse is American based. Seeing I’m in Canada, why is there no more to very little Canadian news showing up? I don’t need to see 50 articles on Trump 24/7
