    What is going on!!! Ugly orange/yellow highlights are terrible. Stop updating AOL At the very least ask subscribers for their input first
    What is going on!!! Ugly orange/yellow highlights are terrible. Stop updating AOL At the very least ask subscribers for their input first. Get rid of them now. Please get rid of them...like today! Wasn't the attaching Favs and AOL search engine a very bad idea. I'm just about out of here!

    I am not in favor of the stars or highlighting...very distracting...please
    remove............

    I cannot agree more. It is sincerely starting to cause dizzyness and nausea. More than disturbing I am starting to consider moving to another server, I've been with AOL from the beginning but am not going to stay and have it physically affect my health. I hope it is cleared up soon.

    Please get rid of the yellow highlight. It is super annoying, distracting and unnecessary.

    At least give us an easy option to OPT OUT!!

    The most recent Beta pushes are not user-friendly. The updates are March #4 3/29: rename local folder fix, read mail form size fix, and more!
    March #3 3/24: hover on mail visual change, and more!
    Due to these pushes, trying to read emails is irritating visually, and disrupts deliberate user-movement within the platform
    Suggest removing the two "enhancements" on next push, or, create a toggle switch, accessible inside the platform, so consumer can turn if Off

    I'm, 72, and am profoundly disturbed with the mailbox yellow boldface highlighting. It distorts my eyesight like a strobe light and raises my blood pressure.

  • DOUGLAS TOMLINSON commented  ·   ·  Report

    I agree - the yellow is not the problem as much as the size change, but it is very distracting!

  • PENNY O NEILL commented  ·   ·  Report

    YES! GET RID OF THE HIDEOUS BRIGHT ORANGE HIGHLIGHT YOU INSTALLED TO "UPDATE" THE APP! IT IS AWFUL AND IT IS BLINDING PEOPLE. IT ALSO MAGNIFIES THE TEXT AT THE SAME TIME. PLEASE DON'T WAIT 5 YEARS. DON'T WAIT AT ALL. FIX IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I also hate the ugly yellow highlight. It's awful and distracting. PLEASE GET RID OF IT AND REVERT BACK TO THE WAY IT WAS.
    Yes, I'm yelling.

    I HATE what you've done to my mailbox. Was anyone complaining about the old way?
    I also hate that I read an email and it no longer shows as read unless I choose that option with that STUPID little box next to the email. I have GOT to find another way to get my mail or to view it. Thanks for nothing AOL. WE are paying for YOU to ruin what was just fine a couple months ago. Who is the bright bulb that thought THIS one up?

  • Lester Duhe commented  ·   ·  Report

    email window now has to be moved up and down to read message. highly annoying

    Please get rid of that yellow highlight box! Sling pulled that stunt and lost gobs of customers. It's not needed and highly distracting!!!

    I have to find another option for reading my email. This is just a bridge too far. They took away the option of seeing when the person we send mail to receives and reads their mail; they gave us little boxes right next to each email line that are unnecessary as the delete option is PLAINLY at the bottom of the email box and now comes the WORST OF THE WORST. I am soooo out of here. I hate this. Whose dimwitted idea was THIS?

  • M Phillips commented  ·   ·  Report

    OOOOOH I was hoping it was a fluke and would disappear on it's own. WHO is coming up with this stuff? Are they trying to drive us away?
