Yahoo Mail app optimised for Android Go phones is coming soon

Oath Inc on 20 June announced that Yahoo Mail is bringing a new application optimised for entry-level Android Go smartphones and a new version of its mobile website. Oath Inc is a subsidiary of Verizon Communications that is the umbrella company of digital content subdivisions including AOL and **Yahoo** . The Yahoo Mail Go app delivers the same features of the current Android application while keeping the RAM usage on devices below 50 MB and the install size below 10 MB.

The company also announced a design overhaul that brings many of the same features that are available for its mobile app users. “In addition to the dramatic feature and design updates, what’s changed for Yahoo Mail on mobile browser behind the scenes is equally as notable. The architecture supporting the new browser experience is the same as our modern desktop tech stack which is developed on ‘React’ and ‘Redux’,” the company said. Notably, the new version has no reloads which makes all actions such as deleting emails, marking them as read or as spam, emptying trash, instant.
