  5. VIEWS FOLDER

    PLEASE ALLOW US TO MOVE OR DELETE THE NEW "VIEWS" folder that's now appearing in our FOLDER list. It's not useful when people are already using folders to manage their mail. It's cumbersome in that it has to be closed whenever logging into AOL.

  10. Welcome window "News" window keeps moving when paging throuugh articles

    The News window now has been changed to a smaller size and keeps moving when paging through the news articles so as to hit ads all the time. Very clever idea..NOT. Now have watch the arrows or you hit ads..Why this change? Please change back to original News window so it doesn't move around in the Welcome window.

  12. disable welcome screen

    In either General or Browser settings, provide an option to disable the Welcome Screen. It is a memory hog and cause AOL Desktop Gold to freeze or randomly lock up.

  13. AOL's email ***** up

    Your new app for phones is disgusting. Go back to the old app that does not lead the person a news feed and other ****. When someone is on their phone they wish to check their email, not see your news feeds. Or at least on the new app give the user the ability to direct the opening page so they don't have to go through the news page. I know that it is probably a money making issue for AOL but please have some concern for the folks that use the app.

  14. The updated revision of AOL has some terrible changes

    When responding to an email the FONT is NOT CLEAR like before ...
    It is NOT the FONT that I choose to reply....
    The Tech stated that it was changed by the UPDATE ....
    This is NOT satisfactory and needs to be reversed to a clearer FONT.

    In addition .... when deleting an email the response is another windows asking if I want to delete the the email ..... THIS IS REDUNDANT .....

    The tech stated this was changed with the updated version ....

    PLEASE REVERSE THE CHANGES .....DO NOT LIKE THE CHANGES BECAUSE IT TAKE EXTRA CLICKS AND WASTING…

  17. AOL's Algorithm is Still Highly Inadequate

    I again had a comment that AOL said has to be reviewed. How many times are you flagging because of a word but is a comment that intended to not be negative except in calling a spade a spade. Words need to be examined based on content in which they are used. If your using AI, you can enhance your algorithm almost without limits. If AI can be used in helping to predict complex areas of inquiries, your algorithm can do better! ! !

  18. Double Line Spacing

    When I compose an email and send it, sometimes the lines get double spaced on the "sent" email. This has only started happening in the May/June 2023 time frame. Please correct this issue. I have contacted AOL Tech Support, and they have not been able to help me. Please Help!

    This is often caused when copying and pasting from applications like MS Word etc.. These applications often contain invisible code that when copied results in double spacing and other odd behaviors.
