One of the mail clients that compete with Gmail on Android terminals is Yahoo Mail. This development is quite complete and allows more than just managing the accounts of one of the most traditional email services. Well, the work has been updated to version 5.3, so it's a good time to give it a try.
Mailbox themes, colors, and design
The most interesting thing about the new iteration of Yahoo Mail is its strengths customization optionsThese are given, for example, by the inclusion of eleven new themes that allow you to change the aspect of the development completely and in this way the user can adapt it perfectly to how he wants it to be displayed on his Android terminal. To access these, you simply have to enter the Settings and choose the corresponding section.
In addition to the themes, you can choose a main color of the mailbox and vary the message design (more compact or more spacious) so that mailing lists are easier to read. It's even possible to activate the preview pane to view the mailbox and the message at the same time, gaining productivity by reducing screen switches.
Incidentally, I was struck by the use of different colors for each of the registered accounts, regardless of the provider used (which could be the developer company itself, Google, etc.). This makes it navigation will be much more intuitive. By the way, now it is possible to rename each one of these, so that the use that is given is much more identifying - such as Personal or Professional.
Content preview and density panel
If you want to activate the preview panel, go to Settings > Appearance and in "Message Design" select Right to split the screen vertically or Lower to place the reading at the bottom. Also adjust the Density (spacing) of the mailbox to see more emails without scrolling or to give more space to each item.
Fonts, spacing, and wording
Within the appearance options, it is possible to choose font size y spacing suitable for your vision or screen size. When composing, Yahoo Mail allows forma tear emails with bold, italics, lists, links, and changing the font family/size of typography to give the messages a more professional style.
Custom signatures and HTML
The email signatures They are another key element of personalization. You can create one per account from the icon of gear and the compose menu. Yahoo Mail supports HTMLso you can include links, styles, and even emojis if you need to.
To add a image To sign, use the "Add image" option next to the signature field and upload a local file or one from services like Google Drive o Dropbox If they are connected. There is a limit of 998 characters per signature (includes spaces and line breaks), and you can have up to two signatures per account.
On iPhone, open the app, tap the icon Y To open accounts > Configuration > General> CompanyTo delete it, turn the switch on and enter the text. To remove it, turn the same switch off. On desktop computers, go to Settings > More settings > Write email and manage your signatures from there. Keep in mind that some third party apps They might not display HTML and images in the same way.
More gestures in Yahoo Mail
To make development management much more intuitive and adapted to current times, version 5.3, which has just been released, allows the use of the gestures to control everything. An example of what we say is the possibility of adding a file to the mail by simply dragging it to the application icon or, also, the creation of folders by simply clicking continuously on the desired place (thus it is possible to even generate subfolders) . He too drag allows to perform actions, such as opening emails.
In the mobile app, the actions of glide The default options are "Mark as read" and "Delete", and can be changed to others such as File o Move toOnly one can be chosen two actions at the same time and it is possible to customize them by each accountProfile > Settings > Swipe activities > Choose activities.
The truth is that they are interesting news that make Yahoo Mail a much more development recommendable and that, little little is situated, like one of the best from the Android market—once the period of minimal improvements has passed. To get the app, if you don't already have it, you can download it from the image below, which links to the Play Store. It's completely free.
