Yahoo Messenger, the pioneering messaging app that changed the way users communicated over the Internet, is now officially dead. To recall, California-based company Yahoo announced last month that it would be killing off Yahoo Messenger. Users can now no longer access chats in-app, and the service will no longer work.

Does Yahoo Messenger still exist?

Yahoo Messenger is shutting down on July 17, redirects users to group messaging app Squirrel. Its the end of an era for Yahoo Messenger, one of the first instant messaging apps on the market. “There currently isnt a replacement product available for Yahoo Messenger,” the company writes.
