Yahoo Mail iOS app gets folder management, improved attachment handling

Download Yahoo Mail

Application for iOS

The struggling Internet giant Yahoo released its native Mail app for the iPhone last December, but it fell on deff ear.

Fourth months later, a revamped version with native iPad support has arrived and Yahoo has since enhanced the experience by adding a couple improvements, including the useful business-focused support for multiple personal and Business Mail accounts.

As part of the sweeping streamlining announced on its blog this morning, Yahoo has pushed an incremental update to its iPhone, iPod touch and iPad client, the new version now allowing you to open attachments in other apps and manage multiple folders with ease…

First things first, here’s the new flattened icon.

Yahoo Mail version 1.5.9 now supports the iOS-standard ‘Open In’ feature which opens an attachment in a user-specified third-party app, provided it’s able to crunch the file type at hand. For example, if you have Amazon’s Kindle app installed on your device, you could use it to open PDF files received as email attachments.

How?

Easy, just tap on the message in the main message list view, then tap on the share button, select ‘Open With’ and choose a desired third-party app in the system menu.

As for folder management, the app now lets you create, rename and delete mail folders by tapping ‘Edit’ next to the list of folders.

The updated software includes various bug fixes, including a fix for the sidebar showing up blank for certain users, especially folks whose devices are set to Arabic/Hebrew international preferences.

The app is optimized for the iPhone 5 and supports the iPhone 3GS/4/4S/5, fourth-gen iPod touch or later and iPads.

Android 4.2 + Sense 5 update for HTC One X in Europe

Android 4.2 for HTC One X

Tegra 3-powered One X receiving update with new OS version, BlinkFeed, video highlights and more

Not long after the HTC One X+ started getting its Android 4.2 update in parts of Asia, HTC Europe has followed suit with an update for the original NVIDIA Tegra 3-powered One X. Reports from the XDA forums show that the update to version 4.18.401.2 weighs in at a little under 380 MB, and includes Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean and the new HTC Sense 5 UI. As such, the update also adds many features from the HTC One, including the BlinkFeed home screen experience, the new Gallery and Camera apps, and automatic video highlights.

It's worth underscoring that this update is for the European HTC One X (codename Endeavor), not the AT&T One X, known internationally as the One XL (codename Evita). So far there are reports that the update is hitting Nordic countries and parts of Eastern Europe first, including Slovakia and Denmark; other European countries should be getting the OTA in the hours and days ahead.

HTC insider @LlabTooFeR tweets that the European HTC One X+ should also be getting a similar OTA, to software version 2.18.401.2, however we've yet to see any signs that that update is rolling out.

If you're seeing the update on your HTC One X or One X+ this morning, hit the comments and let us know how you're getting on.
