Yahoo Search Customer Insights

1. Microsoft has already implemented this feature in Bing, so I hope Yahoo follows suit to remain competitive and attract more users.I have used this for awhile and haven't had any problems where my antivirus would give me warnings sayings this is unsafe not like when I was trying to use one of the other search appChanges my SafeSearch preferences to STRICT every time.... Been through the settings and have attempted multiple times unfortunately with the same result.... Uninstalled!!! WELL AFTER READING ALL THE FOLKS WITH THE SAME ISSUE AFTER 3+ YEARS OF REVIEWS, ITS NICE TO KNOW NOBODY HAS THE COMMON SENSE TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE... NOW THAT IS CUSTOMER SERVICE.....I've been a Yahoo! faithful virtually from its very beginning... even after they pussed-out deciding to become "powered by bing" and despite its heavy reliance on "Click Bait." It's still my go-to search tool on PC, so I thought I'd...

2. It takes 5 seconds to load to a setting option another 5 seconds to turn it off then another 5 seconds to back out of it and then it doesn't actually stay.Way better than Google with less adds and no complex settings that are constantly being recorded!;))I also want to thank Yahoo for its fast recognition of the situation and the quick and easy illustration of guiding me through the things I needed to do in order to resecure the structural integrity of my emailing system.

3. Plus I'm very used to Yahoo news but its either sensationalist or useless, hoping for RSS feed app like Yahoo news from them since there's none out there & Yahoo can benefit through better quality news user managed feeds.I have used Yahoo Search for years, with no problems.

4. I'm not sure how to correct the issue?As a long-time user of Yahoo search engine, I find its interface, speed and accuracy to be top-notch.

5. Yahoo has been in market as long as tech we see it exists & whenever I got opportunity to replace Google search, I definitely choose Yahoo over Bing or Duckduckgo but not lately.

6. However, I believe Yahoo can take things to the next level by integrating AI chatbots into its search engine.

7. NO SUCH LUCK! I've got to jump through multiple hoops just to enter a search term, and most of the time it'll error message me & won't even connect.

8. A few days ago Yahoo Searched kept stopping and closing.

9. This would provide users with a smart assistant that can answer questions, generate content and enhance the overall user experience.

10. If it wasn't for the unilateral cooperation of all three components and companies working cohesively together in the exact same times as they did the culprits may have gone for quite a while longer engineering their schemes than they did.

11. You guys did a great job.Everytime I change my preference settings for the browser it immediately resets to default.
