Yahoo unveils Yahoo Messenger App for Android Users
Hari Anil
Yahoo! launches yahoo messenger app for android users and updated their yahoo mail app for the same. Yahoo! has added video calling capabilities to its yahoo messenger and the messenger will work in harmony with the updated mail, which lets users know when their messenger contacts are online, have IM conversations and make video calls from the mail app. These video calls have to originate on the user’s computer and then can be continued on their android phone, which makes it a little inconvenient.
The updates in the mail app include the ability to multiple Yahoo Mail accounts within the app, browse photos, synchronize contacts on phone with mail and messenger contacts, and chatting. “Probably the biggest request we had from users was for the ability to add multiple Yahoo Mail accounts. Well we heard you loud and clear! You can now add accounts and swap seamlessly between them,” says Lee Parry, Product Manager of Yahoo Mail, through his Blog.
