Question:

I cannot access my Yahoo email account through the Samsung Email app. What should I do?

 

Answer:

 Due to recent changes in Yahoo's authentication policies for third-party email access, you might encounter an access error when trying to use your Yahoo account with the Samsung Email app. To resolve this issue, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Settings menu on your Android device.
  2. Tap on 'Accounts and backup' and then select 'Accounts.'
  3. Locate and remove the existing Yahoo email account from the list.
  4. Re-add the Yahoo account by tapping on 'Add account' and selecting 'Email.'
  5. Choose the Yahoo logo to activate the new secure sign-in method.
