  1. No option to add security key. Please catch up to rest of the world!

    I have couple of Yubico security keys. Unlike Google, Github or any other big services, Yahoo doesn't have this option.
    Please catch up.
    Security is important.

  3. Make it easier to find and set app-specific passwords.

    What did you do with account management, specifically app-specific passwords? I can't find them anymore.

  4. The "Generate an app password" dialog box is not working.

    There is no pull down menu for the app name. When I fill the app name in manually I get an error message: Sorry, this feature is not available right now.
    It's nice that you have the feature to generate passwords for third party apps, but features that don't work aren't features.

  6. STOP ASKING ME FOR 2-STEP VERFICATION!!!!!!!!! If I wanted it, I'd set it up. This is the 2nd time this month you've forced it anyway!

    You have multiple people and votes telling to to STOP this 2-factor ID when when we have it selected as off. This is the second time this month that you've forced a 2-factor ID on me and I have NEVER had 2-factor ID turned on. I've verified it's off each time, and it always is. On top of this STOP asking me to use my phone # as a back up, if I'd wanted that to be my back up access method, I'd have set it up that way. Quit nagging and BACK OFF on verification! Plus, I had to…

  10. Unable to generate an app password so can't access my email on my desktop at work as yahoo is blocked by admin to prevent searches other tha

    I am unable to access my Yahoo account at work as admin have blocked the site and we can only search using Norton. Since I am a sub-contractor and need access to my Yahoo account they have given permission for me to use Outlook but I am unable to sign in without an app password but the option on my mobile device and home PC is showing as unavailable.

    Is there an alternative way I can sign in to my account using Outlook without a generated app password?

  11. Why can I not remove my recovery email if I already have a recovery phone number??

    Now that I have a verified phone number I want to remove my email recovery so it doesn't appear in the two step verification screen. The stupid thing ask me to add a new email or a new phone number. I already have added a new phone!!!!!!.

  14. Turn on two source verification? Umm... no. NEVER. I like yahoo! primarily because overprotection isn't forced.

    Turn on two source verification? Umm… no. NEVER. I like yahoo! primarily because overprotection isn't forced. Case in point: I lost my original Facebook account when I accidentally turned that garbage on when they started this stupid trend. I was told I couldn't get it back without sending them a copy of my photo ID (yeah, not going to happen). The thing is, I didn't have a "smart" phone at the time. I still used a flip phone, and to this day don't use a **** phone to do anything but occasionally make calls. I still interface with the internet…
