AI Summaries - Ability to disable. Go to Settings > AI Features > Toggle Off
Number of Total Messages - Hover over the Inbox Icon and you will see both total number of messages and unread.

  2. Ads provider (Google?) is giving bottom of the barrel ads with nudity

    Yahoo, this is a really ****** ad. You should talk to your ad provider; they are giving you the bottom of the barrel. I'm happy to share a screenshot - the advertiser is **** Shoes, and one is an image with heels, the other is one of a woman's bare bottom. This doesn't match Yahoo's brand identity or audience.

  3. Stop Showing Inappropriate Ads

    The ads that you display on your website are disgusting. I get that you are trying to have people sign up for the "ad free" version, but showing nothing but adult content in your ads is inappropriate. There are children that use this service.

  5. Eliminate the ads that says "3 MESSAGES" - it is a scam that takes over the screen

    I clicked on this ad - I thought it was an email. I didn't even click on a link.
    My screen was immediately filled with content that my computer had been infected.
    There was also a blaring beeping sound and a warning to not shut down my computer or there would be further damage. I closed my screen but the sound persisted. This was a scary situation for me since I didn't know how to get it off the screen and was 100% sure it was a SCAM.

  6. Blocking certain in line ads

    I would like a way to block or remove unwanted types of ads such as dating apps and that type of social media. I do not mine ads, just do not care to see certain types of ads I find offensive or not useful to me.

  11. Opt out of specific advertisers

    I would like to Opt OUT of receiving ad's from certain companies like McAfee. I have had the WORST time removing this product from PC's over the years. I remove it and it pops back up! I find it invasive just like a virus. Other companies are also ones I will never want, and I don't want to click on one by accident.

  12. email ads

    We were just migrated from Xfinity email to Yahoo. Ads are showing up in our email which we do not want and want to delete. There does not appear to be a way to delete unless you pay a monthly fee to be ad-free. This is totally unacceptable. We do not want an inbox full of ads. We will quit Xfinity and yahoo if the only way to not have an inbox full of ads to pay a monthly fee.

    Yes, we do have a few ads in our app, but we also offer an ad-free experience (like many apps today) if you upgrade to Yahoo Mail Plus, but of course it's not mandatory. We will also share your feedback with the right team. Thanks.

    I am being inundated with spam mail which started a short time ago. Maximum 50 of these unwanted mails per day. Is there a reason for it? Would you please put a stop to it. Up to now my mailbox was free of these.

    Please make sure you are marking these emails as spam instead of just deleting. Also, if they are newsletters please make sure you unsubscribe from these. We will also share this with our anti-spam team. Thank you!

  20. Ads with inappropriate images

    I do not like ads relating to dating apps or nude images. Could you please remove them from my account?
