Yahoo is like an old friend rediscovered on the iPhone. I am a loyal Yahoo user since 1997!
Mail in Safari?

This is pointless if I have to open it up just to be redirected to Safari to open up mail! Are you kidding me? PLEASE PUT IT BACK!
Why Safari?

Version 1.1.1
I thought this free app was a home run, until it started telling me I had to view my Yahoo Mail in Safari instead of just displaying it right in the app itself. Why 'fix' it if it wasn't broken? I thought it was a glitch- until I downloaded the updated version and discovered it still does this same stupid trick! It takes nearly 3 times as long (depending on your connection) to launch Safari to view my mail. If I wanted that, I would have used Safari in the first place and just ignored this app. And I don't like the new formatting for the Safari version of Yahoo Mail anyway. Yahoo needs to rectify this soon by reverting to "Mail within the App"; otherwise I'll delete this app and go back to Google mail. I can't imagine ANY Yahoo Mail user- hardcore or casual user- that is happy with this "fix". Pay attention to the desires of your users, Yahoo!
Ugh.

I hate it now that is opens mail in Safari instead of inside the app. The old way was simpler, faster and all around better. This app is useless to me now.
Mail

Version 1.1.1
Please change the mail back to being inside the app instead of opening up safari. I can do that myself right in safari without going into the yahoo app. The only reason I use this app is to check my Yahoo Mail since I don't use it much anymore I only have spam in there and the mail part of the IPhone doesn't have the option to send it to spam.
Why would I want to go back to safari

Version 1.1.1
It's just mobile news and if you want your email account through this app, it reopens to safari and goes through yahoo mobile. Might as well open yahoo through safari since mobile web pages are crap.
Useless

Version 1.1.1
This was a great app. With this latest upgrade they ruined it. Wants to install messenger and opens mail in safari. If I had paid for this, I would be asking for a refund. Is there any way to roll back to the previous version?
Now it launches Safari?

Version 1.1.1
I loved this app. Started using it instead of Mail. But suddenly, instead of just showing Yahoo mail, it wants to launch Safari evry time, and this is a pain. No notice or explanation from Yahoo about this and apparently no way to avoid it. Arrrgh.
If it's not broken don't fix it

Climb out of Google's butt and give this app a try. Does a lot of useful things with one clean interface. I hope yahoo continues to improve this.

Version 1.1.1
Stick with Google. Any app that passes you off to $h|tt¥ Safari is a loser. It didn't even hand off the username and password for mail, it asked me to reenter my info. Save yourself the time to install and then uninstall this POS. Just walk on by and go short Yahoo stock again.
They ruined it

Version 1.1.1
I don't understand, this was a good app and yahoo ruined it. Why do I need to go out to safari each time and open a new window. I have to close windows each time, royal pain! Yahoo, fix this please, no one likes the change!
