How to log in to my yahoo email?

Yahoo is no longer the most popular webmail service — that award belongs to Google's Gmail — but as recently as 2020, Yahoo Mail boasted 225 million users.

If you count yourself among them, you might need to access your Yahoo Mail account. It's accessible on your mobile device (both Android and iPhone) and in a web browser on any computer or device. Here's how to log in.

If you are using the Yahoo Mail app for the iPhone or for Android, once you sign in you typically stay logged in permanently unless you manually sign yourself out. The process to log in is simple and is the same whether you have an iOS or Android device.

1. Start the Yahoo Mail app. If you're not yet signed into any mail accounts, you'll see the Sign In page. Tap Sign in with Yahoo.

2. Type your Yahoo Mail username, email, or mobile phone number associated with the account and tap Next.

3. Enter your password and tap Next.

4. After a moment, you'll be signed in and taken to the inbox.

If you are already already signed into a Yahoo account but want to log into another, do this:

1. In the Yahoo Mail app, tap the Y! Icon at the top left of the screen.

2. In the menu, tap Manage accounts.

3. Tap Add account. (If you are using an iPhone, you will see a dialog box asking permission to open a browser window — tap Continue.)

4. Enter your Yahoo Mail username, email, or mobile phone number associated with the account and tap Next.

5. Type your password and tap Next.

6. After a moment, you'll be signed in and taken to the inbox.

You can log into Yahoo Mail in a web browser the same way no matter what kind of computer — PC or Mac — you are using. Open a browser and go to mail.yahoo.com. Then do this:

1. Type your Yahoo Mail username, email, or mobile phone number associated with the account and type Next.

2. Type your password and tap Next.

3. After a moment, you'll be signed in and taken to the inbox.
