1. 1/5Terrible, only get if you have to.

   Terrible App. You’d think they would have at least a semi-decent app but you can trust the App Store reviews for sure on this one. Actual trash. I’m completely locked out from using the app with my account or any account for that matter. I changed my password because someone logged into my account from another country, and now it has me in a non-stop loop of trying to log me in and acting like it did, not actually logging me in though, verifying my account info when I’m trying to go on community page/look at my profile, and then giving me the same error message over and over. Sometimes, the screen just freezes gray in the app and I can’t do anything in the app unless I delete the app and re-download, AND THEN it still only works for a little bit before it starts crashing again. To top it all off, because I’ve been trying to log in since I’m trying to verify that everything in my account is OKAY after someone tried getting into it, I have been locked out of my account for trying to login too many times. I still don’t know if my account’s okay. Not worth the migraine.

2. 1/5Can’t even create an account!

   There has been a game surfacing in the internet that I’ve been really interested in and have been wanting to play for a while now. I figured that I could only find it on steam so I decided to go on steam on my laptop and get the game. I couldn’t play the game because I had to create an account which I have tried multiple times but it just will not allow me to create an account. I go through everything, putting my email in, doing the bot verification, etc etc; everytime I do that it says some error occurred such as “please get off of any VPNs or proxies” or “captcha couldn’t verify your identity”. I am not on any VPNS or proxies and I don’t know how to combat this captcha issue. Also steams help center isn’t helpful whatsoever when it comes to creating an account. Anything account related is only for users who have an existing account. This app doesn’t even allow me to create an account, there is no section that says “create an account” it just makes you sign in form the very beginning. But I do not have an account. There are times where I have gotten as far as verifying my email. But that does not work. I would get the email and press on the link it gives me and it brings me to a steam page but every single time I do this, it always says “couldn’t verify email”. I stopped trying for a few days just to give it some time. It’s been over three weeks and it is still doing the same thing. I just wish a dev could get back to this comment and help me, I JUST WANT TO PLAY A GAME!!! Creating an account should not be this difficult.

3. 1/5I am FRUSTRATED. Mobile Authenticator DOES NOT WORK! Only causes more problems.

   The STEAM application on my computer told me to download the mobile application to remove the trade/market holds. This was my first time using the STEAM market, so I thought that sounded great! It worked the moment I activated the Authenticator, allowing me to sell and trade cards. Two days later, my account suddenly has the holds again. I thought I’d simply refresh the Authenticator and it would fix it. I was horribly mistaken. Adding the Mobile Authentication to your account does NOTHING. It does NOT remove trade holds consistently and it extremely frustrating to try and understand. After authenticating for the second time, it not only didn’t release my trade hold, but removed my ability to use the Community Market for 15 DAYS!! I’ll forget all about my trades and badges I was crafting by then! There’s no button to prove that it was you that made the trade, you just have to suffer in silence for 15 days. THIS IS AN AWFUL SYSTEM! If you’re downloading this app just for the authentication, its more worth it to just buy the cards straight up or farm gems than go through sell/trade side of the Community Market. 0/10 experience. All I wanted was badges for my favorite games. P.S. Same thing happened to my friends in the past. NOT JUST ME! VALVE, FIX THIS!! All we need is a “I made that transaction” button! That’s it!! No more holding our stuff for 15 days!

4. 1/5Valve…

   Dear Valve, the chances of a single one of your staff reading this are less than 0.1% but I might as well try. Valve, stop trying to find every method possible to be lazy and not doing anything people actually want, instead of putting even the simplest of effort into a App you decide to forget about it and leave maybe a single worker to actually make bug fixes, don’t even get me started on the Steam Chat app… This is a poor excuse of a app and needs to actually be worked on. Your slop of a company gets to make millions and all you all do is either sit around or release a new device every once in a while. You have communities that are so forgotten that they get excited from a bug fix update. Just listen to your fans for at least once in a lifetime! Maybe try to make a sequel to one of your games, make something original, or even just a remake, unlike your past few games don’t make them exclusive to a 1000$ device you make! Anyways if you read this, nothing will likely happen, If you didn’t, nothing will likely happen. (Man even Bethesda atleast tries to be a good company sometimes)

5. 4/5Take your product reviews to product pages

   A lot of people are review bombing this app with their personal gripes about transactions made that they didn’t read the description of. Steam isn’t responsible for your early access game getting cancelled and delisted, nor is it responsible for you losing your account cause you refused to update your recovery info for some reason? App works (a solid 90% of the time), I think if you’re looking more into the experimental features and trying to squeeze all of the functionality out of this and rely on it as a solid way to manage your steam library and purchase games while simultaneously downloading them at home, you’re sorely mistaken. This is a solid app to see sales, buy games for your library at home, message and sell your items, other than that I don’t really try to push it too hard haha. This is a solid app if you simply want to be able to browse and buy games while not at your desktop, also if you like trading items. If you don’t know how to read EULAs and point fingers when you can’t read everything laid out in front of you, this app isn’t for you.
