In an attempt to improve support for its customers, Yahoo launched a new application for iOS devices called Answers. It's unclear whether or not the company will release an Android version of Answers as well, but for the time being only iOS users can take advantage of its benefits.
The Answers app is the mobile version of Yahoo's Q&A website, so the developers expect to move some of the support they offer on the web through mobile devices. Some of you might remember an app called Yahoo Hive, which was tested not long ago.
This is the same app, but with a different name. With Yahoo Answers, users can get the answers they are looking for, but aren't available on the web. According to Yahoo, for the time being users will need an invite code in order to sign in, so you can request one via email.
The application allows you to search for questions, answers, as well as search the web for links to include in your answers. Moreover, you can edit your questions and answers, along with username and profile.
There are other options that you get in Yahoo Answers, unlike the web app, such as the ability to upload photos or reply with emoji, as well as search the web for source to include in answers from the app.
Yahoo Answers is available for free to all iOS users in the United States, but, as mentioned earlier, you will need an invite code to be able to use it.
