In common with many other Mail providers, Yahoo now use App Passwords to secure access IMAP or POP3 mailboxes.


The Mail App on each of your devices, such as your iPad, requires a unique password to be generated from within the Yahoo account. This App password intentionally differs from your Yahoo account password - and can only be used to access your Yahoo mail.

What have you tried, so far yourself, to resolve this so that we don't offer potential solutions that may not have already worked for you?


For example, have you tried simply removing, and then, re-adding your Yahoo email account on your iPad? Do you have any issues accessing your Yahoo account from a web browser or another device?
