Bangalore August 30 2014: The new Yahoo email app for Android and iOS phones  throws in a lot of  additional friendly features: It opens with 3 icons: Mail, News and Today. The email  part is fairly standard -- but a single swipe takes you to  personalized news, local  weather -- or a search within your mailbox.  You can also create filters to quickly locate files or photos in your inbox.
Yahoo Mail on Android comes with a couple of unique features. Simply swipe left or right or tap the relevant icon in the upper right-hand corner of your screen to quickly and seamlessly move between your inbox, news stream, and Today.

 As part of this update, Yahoo is also introducing a new experience when you search for people in your inbox. When you start typing a name, Yahoo Mail offers smart search suggestions -- including both people and messages -- to help you narrow down your search. The app filters your search results by messages, files or photos, and you can easily scroll through them to find what you're looking for.
