User Reviews

Users praise Yahoo Search for AI-powered features, clean UI, and homepage personalization, along with independence from Google/Microsoft. However, repeated reviews point to update-induced instability (search not functioning, voice search failures, relogin prompts) and navigation/layout problems (missing bookmarks, awkward tablet/phone UI). Some describe the overhaul as messy and slow, undermining performance. Overall sentiment is mixed: appreciation for AI capabilities and refreshed design, but concerns about reliability and cross-device consistency.

Pros

AI-powered search with useful summaries and links (Scout AI).
Clean, simple, improved UX/UI.
Personalization via AI-driven homepage tiles/feeds.
Independent search option not tied to Google/Microsoft; refreshing alternative.

Cons

Update-induced instability: search stops returning results, voice search failures, and repeated relogin/update prompts.
Missing bookmarks/favorites and inconsistent navigation across devices (no bookmarks, awkward tablet/phone UI, small iPad view).
Messy, slow performance and UX issues attributed to overhaul.
Interface glitches like a jumbled search screen and occasional keyboard size changes.

***UPDATE*** One small nitpick, but a home screen widget for the search engine would be a big quality-of-life improvement. Other than that, everything’s golden ✌️ ***ORIGINAL POST*** Moved to Yahoo! several years ago and never looked back. It’s always been a breath of fresh air to use something that isn’t linked to Google and Microsoft, and I’m happy to see that it’s finally making a comeback and improving for the better. It’s the original and it’ll always be the best 🙌

A refreshing take on search with an innovative way to personalize your homepage using AI feeds (tiles). Search seems to aggregate purple results, doesn’t lean politically more left or right. Huge step forward, Yahoo! Welcome back! Please add dark mode…. Solid 4.6

It gives you the description if you type it a web address instead of taking you to the site it just gives you a stupid description instead, I hate meta bs
