Internet giant Yahoo has rolled out a bunch of updates for its Android and iOS Mail apps in order to recapture the market with growing competition with Microsoft and Google.

"We've made it easier to discover and create conversations with a community around engaging content and follow the latest developing stories in a nearly infinite news stream," said Simon Khalaf, senior vice president, Yahoo in a blog post.

Following a major redesign in autumn 2015, the Yahoo! Mail app has been updated with a set of new functions.

While Yahoo! Mail and Outlook can be linked to accounts from other email services, Google's Inbox can only be used with Gmail accounts.

Headquartered in California, the American multinational technology company is globally known for its Web portal, search engine Yahoo! Search, and related services, including Yahoo! Directory, Yahoo! Mail, Yahoo! News, Yahoo! Finance, Yahoo! Groups, Yahoo! Answers, advertising, online mapping, video sharing, fantasy sports and its social media website.

It is one of the most popular sites in the United States.
