Yahoo axes Maps, Pipes, other services as it narrows focus

<article>
   <section class="page">
<p>
Yahoo says it’s all about search, communications, and digital content (http://yahoo.tumblr.com/post/120700756894/q2-2015-progress-report-on-our-product), and now a few of its older services must go. Caught up in Yahoo’s digital divide are people on aging iOS devices, some Mac OS X Lion users, fans of Yahoo Maps, and power users attached to Yahoo Pipes.</p><h2>Sayonora iOS 4 and Mac OS X 10.7</h2>
<p>
Yahoo says it can no longer service the built-in mail app for iOS 4 and earlier. Anyone running that system will have to turn to Yahoo Mail’s web app. The company says it is doing this “in order to maintain focus on the security, speed, and functionality of Yahoo Mail on the latest systems.”</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2932043/yahoo-axes-maps-pipes-other-services-as-it-narrows-focus.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
