Yahoo Mail for iOS Updated With News, Search and More Content

Here's some good news for all of you still connected to the Yahoo mail service from your smartphones. According to reports, Yahoo has rolled out a brand new update for its Yahoo Mail app for iPhone and iPod Touch, adding a boatload of new features alongside the update.

The new update for the Yahoo Mail service operating on iOS, which brings one-tap access to personalized and real-time information, however, is still maintaining the same overall look for the app.

Once updated, the new Yahoo Mail app will not only show the user's Yahoo Mail inbox when luanched, but will also offer a new panel with icons for Mail, News, and Today at the bottom of the screen. Although, nothing has been changed in the first tab.

"When you first open the Yahoo Mail app, you'll see your Yahoo Mail inbox and a new panel with icons for Mail, News and Today at the bottom of the screen. This is where all your news, information, and communications come together in one integrated experience," the official blog post for the same states.
