Yahoo just put another brick in the path to the future without its password: In a blog post, the company introduced their new mail client and another way for users to enter their account. of them without remembering passwords.

This called the Yahoo Key Account, and it's the same as the password requested - Yahoo's password-free entry tool was introduced in March. Except for now, login required to install the mail client. in your cell phone.

Yahoo Account Account Activity is as follows: After the user links the tablet or smartphone to their Yahoo account and installs the application, their login process changes. Rather than entering an email address and password to access, the site will recognize that a person's email is set up with an Account Key and send a push message to their phone. On the phone, all those that have to do is accept or deny the login request on the web-no code is required.

It's important to note that this is not the second step, like Google's 2-Step Verification process. But it's a little easy to know that a hacker can steal (or gain access to) your phone to access your account. And if you're in a group that has a hard time remembering passwords, you'll probably love this feature-just do not lose your phone, break the phone or let the battery die and you should be OK.

The new Yahoo Mail app is available for download today for iOS and Android. And it's a great addition to the app: Finally, it allows users to sign in to Outlook, Hotmail and AOL accounts (not Gmail yet).
