Microsoft Support is 2nd to none!

So I had an issue with the app and the support team emailed me about it. We corisponded back and forth several times and they just put out a patch yesterday and the problem is solved!!! Love the app and use it all the time!

Stop using algorithms to determine what users want to see.

Sort post by date. I keep seeing the same post from 3 weeks ago at the top of my feed, yet all the new posts are randomly scattered around the timeline. Unnecessary scrolling. Please give the ability for users to control what that see.

Push Notifications donโ€™t Work.

Previously, notifications would come through to your phone when new posts or comments were made. Since the last update though push notifications donโ€™t come though, and the settings section for push notifications is completely blank - looks like a bug.

Tagged person bug

There is a problem with your app, when I click a tagged name in a post the app will refresh and change to another network rather than displaying the persons profile. Can this be resolved?

3rd party integrations are useless

Be warned. 3rd party integrations such as Trello and Google Analytics to post actions and updates to a Yammer group are useless with new Yammer on the web and the mobile app. In both cases the post header is the only thing thatโ€™s visible. No details of the post such as Google Analytics metrics or the details of action on a Trello card. This is useless for me unless they fix it and allow the same details as old Yammer layout.

Newsfeed out of order

Echoing what others have said. Having the newsfeed out of order unfortunately makes the app entirely useless for day to day use, which is a shame as it was previously a great app. Notifications are also broken, and only notify on mention rather than for the groups/communities set. Developers great at correspondence, but I don't think a fix is in their roadmap for the future, sadly. Here's hoping either it reverts back or an option to turn off the new ordering is enabled.

Thanks for providing us with the feedback. Your feedback is a critical part in us making our app better and we deeply appreciate the partnership here. Some quick context โ€“ weโ€™ve recently made a change to bring the mobile home feed in line with the home feed on web. This has several benefits, including helping you stay on top of your communities, prioritizing the most relevant content first, and discovery of new content. All of that said, the feedback about recency is heard loud and clear. If you would like more details on the changes we are making please reach out to us at yammer-ios-team@microsoft.com.

I have no friends

Something broken with this app

Was using for years, I guess a recent update broke the app on iPhone. All my other apps working fine, this one in slow motion , wait several secs after push any button before see something happen, so 1 min to type a long word.

Response from developer

Sorry about that, we are investigating it. Would you mind posting your feedback from within the app? You can do this by tapping on your profile picture on the top left and then tapping on "Send Feedback"->"I Don't Like Something". Make sure to toggle the include diagnostics data, so we get detailed information about your issue. In addition, please reach out to us directly at yammer-ios-team@microsoft.com so we work with you to get to the bottom of it.

Multi use tool that effects my productivity and outcomes.

I use Yammer to lead groups, collaborate with peers, poll my clients and extensive backbone of usability work. I wish we didnโ€™t need to be behind the firewall so I have to VPN to use the mobile App. Otherwise, SUPER helpful and fairly intuitive.
