New Yahoo Mail


Welcome to the new Yahoo Mail Desktop experience! This is a place for you to help shape the redesign. We review the most popular, feasible ideas from this forum to make positive changes to your Yahoo Mail.


COME HERE FOR THE LATEST UPDATES.

Unfortunately, you cannot revert back. We are only making the new one better. We know change is frustrating and hard but we really hope you'll give the new layout a fair chance.



WHAT'S NEW:
Calendar - We moved it from under "More" on the right hand side to it's own icon. Still on the right hand side, but it's now the first icon next to Starred and Contacts.

TIPS:
Disable Inbox Categories (All, Primary, etc) - You can go back to having just ONE Inbox. Go to Settings > Inbox Categories.
Keep Folders Expanded - First expand left hand column by hovering on Inbox edge until you see Double Arrows. Then a drop down will show up next to Folders.
Bulk Delete - Click on a checkbox from your Inbox and a new checkbox will appear at the top. From there you can Select All and Delete All.
Sender's Email Address - You don't have to open the message to see the sender's email address. Just hover over the sender's name from your Inbox.
Sort By Sender - This is still a sorting option, but you must disable Conversation view under your Settings. Then you will see "Sender name"
Disable AI Summaries - Go to Settings > AI features > Toggle Off
Unread Count - You can hover over "Inbox" to see the Unread count or you can expand the left hand column and Unread will be in the column below Inbox with the unread count. No hovering.



COMING SOON!
Compact View - Small, Medium and Large views are coming soon! (Some of you are already seeing this new Setting, please let us know if you cannot)




**Please do NOT post about Account, Password, Login issues here. It will be deleted. Please go to help.yahoo.com.




Thank you! 💜

  1. Calendar Feedback

    Why was the Calendar List View removed? Why would anyone consider that helpful? Restore it. You calendar is barely useable without it. The other views stink

  2. Calendar Not Working - Stuck on Timezone Stage

    I can't add any events to my calendar from a link in an email, it freezes on the change timezone pop up and does not let me exit or move forward. This has been going on for more than a week now, when will it be fixed? Or should I migrate my calendar back?

  3. Please Reverse Changes to Yahoo Calendar

    I have been using the Yahoo Calendar for many years. I use it primarily for reminders and travel planning. It was extremely helpful. I could view each month at a glance and easily flip to years or months in the future to make entries. With the recent changes, however, it is much more difficult to navigate to different months or to read the various entries, which are now curtailed. I am not at all averse to changes when they are an improvement, but the recent changes to your calendar are horrible! PLEASE CHANGE IT BACK TO THE WAY IT WAS!

  4. I am writing to express my extreme disappointment with the recent Yahoo Calendar redesign. I do not like any of it. The new layout is a mass

    I am writing to express my extreme disappointment with the recent Yahoo Calendar redesign. I do not like any of it. The new layout is a massive step backward in usability, accessibility, and efficiency.
    The most frustrating regressions include:
    • The lack of grid lines: Without clear borders, the calendar looks like a washed-out wall of text, making it incredibly difficult to visually separate different days and weeks.
    • Tiny, unreadable fonts: The text size is far too small and cannot be adjusted, causing unnecessary eye strain just to read my daily schedule.
    • Loss of the integrated sidebar: Forcing…

  5. You have made the Calendar unusable for me.

    Ive been using my Yahoo Calendar for years and LOVED it. You have made the Calendar unusable for me. I can no longer have my calendar on the Month view and at a glance, see just what I have on it. The new format does not allow me to see much info without opening the calendar event. I have stuff on my calendar for days, weeks, months and even years ahead of time. I need to be able to quickly look to see what is coming up and if I need to schedule something and that time is already full,…

  6. Calendar Settings

    My calendar entries used to show the selected icons under "Type" (e.g. Doctor, Bills, Work etc.) but since the update they show no icon but instead a blue dot regardless of the Type icon I select. This is very frustrating as my appointments all look the same. Can't find a way to revert back.

  7. Improve the monthly calendar display

    I hate the way the new version of the calendar displays when in monthly mode. It looks cluttered and is difficult to read, especially as the text I add when making appointments is abridged on the screen. I see from your note above that you won't allow us to revert to the previous version, but how about displaying the monthly calendar in the same format as the weekly and daily ones?
    The rest of the application is fine - I'm not afraid of change, only of changes that are retrograde.

  8. Go back to wrapping text in calendar events

    If you are going to update the look of the Yahoo calendar, don't remove good aspects of the previous version.
    Please go back to wrapping text in calendar events as it did before. Text was easier to read. The text now gets cut off and is no longer easy to read. I can understand when you are just editing or adding an event with one long line of text. At least you used to be able to see the full text after saving.
    Thanks

  9. Show all text on calendar print out

    When I try to PRINT my Yahoo calendar in the NEW version/layout it does NOT print the entire event. Only a word or a few letters and the start time prints! I new it to show the entire event.

  10. Calendar

    Put it back on the main email screen. Why in the world would you hide it in a "more" tab? I honestly think you must be stupid to not get user input when you push "improvements". Calendar should be on the main screen easily accessed. And no I do not like the new design, it has nothing with getting used to it either.

  11. Put the calendar back on the right side.

    Bring back the ability to view the calendar on the right hand side of email page the way it was. I need to be able to see at a glance what days in the month I have free what days are marked by a dot to tell me that I have to be somewhere or do something.

  12. Please improve Calendar readability and usability

    The new Yahoo Calendar design has significantly reduced readability and made the calendar much less practical to use.

    Previously, it was easy to distinguish appointments and events at a glance thanks to different colors, such as red, green, and other visual categories. With the new layout, everything looks too similar, making it difficult to immediately identify what I am looking for.

    The new design is also much less functional. To find a specific appointment, I now have to open each individual day and read through all the entries one by one. This makes checking the calendar much slower and more…

  15. New calendar layout

    The new monthly calendar is MUCH HARDER TO READ than the old one!! Do not waste space with the colored dot for each entry. Set the background color like it used to be. Allow entries to wrap if there's enough space in the day block.

  16. When will you produce a mobile calendar?

    Instead of wasting your time and resources on making totally unnecessary changes to mail you should produce a mobile calendar. You are the only ones that don't have one, which is ridiculous in this day and age.

  18. My calendar will no longer print the entire event that I have typed for a particular day.

    My calendar will no longer print the entire event that I have typed for a particular day. The calendar square only shows part of what I need to see.

  19. Change the Calendar format

    I'm a Yahoo user in Australia, and in Australia our calendar format is day/month/year but you have an Amercanised calendar format which has month/day/year and is very confusing. Can you please use an Australian Calendar format for Yahoo in Australia?

  20. Calendar Text Color Coding

    What happed to the ability to color code RED / YELLOW / GREEN on the type pull down tab when you are creating or editing a calendar event???

    The function is still in the "type" pull down tab but does not work. This function used to color code the text whichever color you pick.
