The app is kinda weird, though. Is it me, or is it WebView-based? It was the first time I had to do a friggin' CAPTCHA on an iOS device(!).
"Spin your phone clockwise 3 times and lick the screen to prove you're not a robot"
I also had to change my Yahoo! password for Flickr a while back, and I think the maximum length of my password was still at ~32 characters ... and there's not two-factor authentication to boot.
Yahoo! is very AOL-like still, which is one of those things I really, really hope Meyer can do away with.
Way more sophisticated than that. Think in terms of emulation, simulation, HTTP spoofing, etc.
Maybe this is just my first real WebView experience with a log-in process. I just wonder how there isn't an alternative (besides a native app).
