Might help to provide some extra detail re: what "lost functionality" is. App crashes? Can't sign-in? Not downloading emails? Other?

Was told by AT&T tech (at store) that the IOS 12.5.4 download had a security element in it that rendered my older I-Pad unable to enter or change a password in order to use "Yahoo Mail" . Same thing happened to my I-Phone 6 when I downloaded the same version. Wound up having to purchase a new I-Phone (not a new one, but I-Phone 7). Don't want to buy a new I-Pad! Still having to pay "access fees", on it though. Texting, calling, and Facetime work OK, but not E-Mail....

Yes I’m not sure if OP is using yahoo mail app to sign in or the browser app to sign in to OP mail.

May have to update yahoo mail app if the older version as security problems.
