Original Series
Yaya's attire in the original series consists of a pink fuchsia long sleeve shirt, accompanied by a yellow vest with small red flowers on the top and magenta long trousers. Topping off her wardrobe, Yaya wears a fuchsia pink belt, light yellow shoes, and a pink hood (hijab) with charming yellow flowers. Her pink power watch, gifted to her by Ochobot, is also worn on her wrist. Additionally, she sports a pair of goggles on her head but never actually makes use of them.

In Season 2 and 3 of the show, Yaya's outfit remains the same as in Season 1, except for a few minor modifications. Specifically, there is a small flower clip attached to her hood and a pink belt cinched around her waist.

Despite the fact that she has never been spotted without her hijab on screen it has been revealed through concept art that she has wavy brown hair underneath.

BoBoiBoy Galaxy
Now much older, Yaya is much taller and noticeably more mature than how she looked in the original series. She has long pink sleeves on a white blouse and a yellow belt with a small flower decorated bag hanging on her right waist, along with a pair of brown pants. She also dons a pair of yellow goggles in place of her old ones. Yaya wears a pair of white and pink boots. Her hijab style has changed as well. She wears her power watch on her right wrist, and a yellow bracelet on her left wrist.

Personality
For most of the series, Yaya is shown to be one of the kindest and smartest members of the team. She is very hesitant to hurt other people and when she had first gotten her powers, she apologized for attacking Adu Du to defend her friends. Despite her kind demeanor, she is not hesitant to fight and is one of the first people to jump in when BoBoiBoy is in danger. As shown by her numerous academic achievements, Yaya is hardworking, responsible, and a smart individual, always working at the best of her abilities.

Yaya's poor baking skills have become an ongoing joke amongst her friends, as she is unable to make cookies and biscuits that are edible. Despite her friends and acquaintances avoiding her baking, Yaya seems to be unaware of her ineptitude and gets excited when people pretend to "enjoy" her baked goods. This running gag has become a part of Yaya's reputation and has garnered some laughs amongst her social circle.

Skills and Abilities
Due to Ochobot losing part of his memory, her abilities were at first thought to be flight and super strength, when her actual power is Gravity Manipulation (Gravikinesis). With this, she can master gravity and release it, which gives her the supposed 'super strength'. Yaya also manipulates her own gravity, giving the illusion of flight.
