Yahoo adds Gmail support to Mail app
Yahoo is looking to pull a whole lot of new users into its new Yahoo Mail app by adding support for Google's popular Gmail.
Yahoo, which has been in turmoil lately, launched its Mail app this past October, adding support for email services like Outlook.com, Hotmail and AOL Mail.
What the app didn't have was support for Gmail.
Yahoo is trying to rectify that omission now.
"All the features you need and love in Yahoo Mail -- powerful search, smart contacts, rich compose features and Yahoo Account Key for password-free sign-in -- are now available with Gmail," wrote Shiv Shankar, Yahoo senior product manager, in a blog post. "You can now search across your entire history of emails, from day one, for all connected mailboxes," -- not just the most recent emails, "which is how it's done in many apps today."
