Yahoo Mail For Android Now Has A Dedicated Tablet UI, And It Doesn't Look Half Bad

Posted by in Applications

While Yahoo may not shout "relevance!" from the treetops on an Android blog, the struggling web giant's email service is still hugely popular in the US. Its Android mail client, until now, hasn't explicitly supported tablets. A new update today changes that, and the end product is surprisingly decent-looking (certainly prettier than Outlook.com's most recent update).

While the UI layout isn't revolutionary, it is fairly attractive and clean, something I think we can all appreciate in an email client. Yahoo's also taken a bit of a page from Gmail's book and integrated swipe-based message actions, though Yahoo Mail's are actually a bit more powerful.

Yahoo! Mail Updated To v2, Brings New UI, Increased Stability, Improved Security, And Some Other Stuff

Posted by in Applications, News

Still using Yahoo! Mail, eh? Good news! The app just hit v2, which, like most full-version releases, brings all sorts of new goodies. First, and probably the most noticeable, is that the app is now called Y! Mail and it has a brand spankin' new UI. Don't tell GMail I said this, but I actually think Y! Mail's new look is pretty decent.

Aside from the pretty new interface, version 2 also brings increased stability, more reliable push notifications, better battery performance, and better security, as it now has SSL activated by default.

Good stuff for those who are still attached to Yahoo!
