Why can't I use my finger print to sign in on AOL?
I use my fingerprint to sign in on Microsoft, my computer, and Google on this computer. This makes AOL outdated and almost useless in the fight against spammers and information thieves.
I have started using Google for my important mail. People send me mail to AOL, and I never receive it.
It's time for AOL to step into the Biometric era. Passwords are archaic.James E

Still the same problems after update
Still getting Not Responding after your update this past week. Still having lag time in opening emails and when they're loading. When deleted list of SPAM and deleted emails appear for permanent deletion, shaded lines appear before everything is loaded/appears. there is also lag time and not instant like it use to be. Ads still appear in my main email...why am i paying for GOLD??? You said to report a bug and I did but I'm sure other people are still having these problems as well. TEST BEFORE RELEASE!!!

How do you transfer browser saved passwords to a new PC? Export does not do it.
Transferring Browser passwords to new computer. Need to find a way to copy/transfer AOL Browser passwords (saved in settings-browser-passwords) to a new PC. Used a Laplink PCmover program (with ethernet cable) to transfer most of my Win 10 PC to a new Win 11 PC. Program seemed to work OK, The only thing I noticed at 1st was that ALL my saved passwords for all my Favorites site were not in the Settings-Browser-Password area. (and I must have 50-75 or more saved and still on my old PC) How do I get them transferred?
UNDER older export processes it use…18th ranked -
Please add the ability to attach a screenshot or video when submitting a bug report. Much easier for the devs and for me.

The AOL desktop background is inserted huge, larger than the original size
A while ago, I reported twice that the background we choose from our device to use on AOL Desktop doesn’t display at a normal size; the images I use appear huge. It wasn’t like this before, every time they make changes, it gets worse. I didn’t even want to keep insisting about the huge backgrounds—they ignored me. I think AOL doesn’t have someone professional to make these changes. Little by little, AOL’s prestige is going down; it’s not and will not be what it used to be.

Fix the problem as soon as it is reported, don't ignore it.
"Report a Bug" ignored my report about the problem with the email text upon sending; it is not readable after being sent. Two weeks have passed, and they haven't fixed the problem. They also haven't fixed the bug for phone calls, because they only accept texts on a cell phone to send the verification code. What kind of service are they offering us when they don't fix the problems in their application? Is it worth continuing to pay AOL when the customer is left dissatisfied?

Make it easy to get to the calender. Windows 11 is making things impossible. I like the simplicity of the AOL Calender but I have to search
Make it easy to get to the AOL calender and sync if possible, but I'll settle for being able to access it from the toolbar easily. I presently have to search online where it pops up and click on it from there. It opens to my account just fine and I'm using it, but NOT easy to get to.
Windows 11 calender is a mess and I gave up on it. It won't sync. Getting to it gets harder and harder and I've gone back after an update and my whole year calender was frigging gone. I had to rebuild…

CompuServe Gold sounds
It would be great to have the CompuServe welcome/gotmail/goodbye sounds on the CompuServe Gold client instead of the AOL sounds.
I have the sound files from a CompuServe 2000 install if you need them.
