Uploaded pictures issue
I just updated your App and now when I click on pictures and there are multiple pictures, I am only seeing the same picture for all other pictures. Before the update, I was not having this issue. Please fix!
Love the app though.

Not bad, but more cumbersome than necessary
I find the group conversations cumbersome and awkward. You have to go through the group to find the conversation and then scroll all the way down each time. Often times my app on the phone will be notified 10 minutes before my desktop app will show that I have a notification. Sometimes the notifications just don’t show up on my desktop. My team is having the same problem. Having used other IM Software, we find this one to be overly cumbersome for no reason. There are far better ways to carry on a group chat and individual chats. As an office 365 business member, I look forward to Yammer increasing its usability so that this can be our main go to in the future. It’s just not there yet.

Rating of the phone version
The PC experience is fine. The phone is poor. When alerted in email AND the app is open, it won't go to the ref in that email until you close the app. Then, in spite of being authenticated, you're asked to log in...but that's actually bogus. Just close the request and you're in. That's just poor UX.
Then there's the whole UX in the phone. Terrible use of real estate. It's a phone NOT A PC. Figure out how users use it and build to that. Please.

Great for informal office comms
Yammer is so much better than sending random, non-urgent office emails.
It's allows for everyone to engage with informal communications to the level they're comfortable & breaks down barriers between teams or departments if implemented well.

Getting better.
I been using yammer for about a year now. I love the idea behind it. Helps to build a stronger work community. My company uses it to reward/ knowledge great work down within the company. The new added gif feature is nice. Specially when thanking a worker for a job well done. I would recommend being able to post in multiple groups at once. As my company uses different groups to separate from region to region. But would be nice when your trying to get a message across the whole company.

An adequate discussion board
Yammer is a decent discussion board, but falls well short of what it could, and should be. Microsoft Teams and Slack are better in many ways, the Yammer team should take a look at them, and possibly combine forces with Teams to create a truly great experience. Teams would be nearly perfect if you could record meetings, so it is not ready for prime time either. Surprised at their shortcomings, its not rocket science. Just build what we need, want, and have been asking for for years.

Excellent
Working for a global company Yammer is a great way of connecting across different parts of the organisation. We have many different groups set up including even a book club group which puts me in touch with colleagues in different countries and/or parts of the business I would never have connected with previously.
It is used a brilliant tool for opening up discussion and debate on some important topics.
I was sceptical when it was first rolled out thinking it was just another social media platform but so far it is being used in a very professional manner and has proved itself to be an excellent communication tool.

Good work app
I have been using Yammer at work for quit some time now. I appreciate that it's an application on my work computer as well as an app on my phone. It's helped me to be more productive at work.
Tracking posts
It’s very frustrating and difficult to navigate around posts. When the feed works off most recently commented on rather than time and date- makes it nearly impossible to find posts and so forth.
Network rail yammer
Helps keep network rail colleagues up to date on issues across the route. Helping with common problems , incidents and means of problem solving through others experience. Replaced our daily logs as this way it’s there for the whole route to see rather than just MOMs based at our depot
