  • Doesn’t fit table screen

    Has its own keyboard and the space bar fails for me half the time I really can’t see why this couldn’t be integrated into the main app
  • Waste of time

    Make us have 2 apps; junk
  • Dissapointing

    Doesn’t show who’s online or who’s in-game correctly. Or what they are playing. Basically friends online and game status is not displaying properly on chat app. And why separate chat from the main steam app? Annoying.
  • Removed from original app and clunky

    I never write reviews but this is going to be my first. Been using steam for over 10 years now and I feel like this is a step backwards when I tried to access my friends list like normal on my regular steam app and was directed to the store to download this. Feels really clunky, takes up more space and it’s super irritating to need to switch between apps when it’s the same platform. Overall this just feels like a super bad decision. You didn’t need to break something that was functioning better than this, could just improve the old app and people would be happy.

  • Two apps is backwards

    Okay I like some of the improvements BUT having to download a separate application to do the same exact thing you were able to do with one is kinda backwards, it’s super inconvenient.
    I just want to chat with my friends while looking through games and news and this new set up makes it so needlessly difficult to enjoy your experience.

  • Steam app update forced me to download this trash.

    And here I thought Steam's mobile app couldn't get any worse. The chat function in the old unified app was wonky and buggy, and didn't support image attachments.
    This "improved" chat app doesn't even support landscape on iPad making it effectively unusable on this platform.
    Oh, and they added a button to attach images but it doesn't even work.

  • Make one app ?

    They haven’t updated steam app long time and the release this app just got chat why they just update one up we can buy game and chat same time door get me wrong it’s nice app but just for chat u can’t go to store or anything hopefully they do something about it ?
  • Why is this necessary

    I can appreciate overhauling the core steam app as it was seriously clunky and outdated; though why exactly it is now essential to use an entirely separate app for messaging, I have no idea. The old app’s message system worked fine for me, the only hiccups being the occasional duplicate message. Unless there are some wacky new chat features that necessitate having their own app, I fail to see why mobile users should be made to jump through an extra hoop to message friends from their phones. The extra funds and dev time spent to launch this app would’ve been put to far better use overhauling and updating SteamVR, which has been lagging far behind its competitors in ease of use and functionality for years now. Do better, Valve.

  • Needs updating

    Clicking into the chat box to reply doesn’t bring up the keyboard on the iPhone version.

    Needs an update now the main steam app redirects to this one for sending messages
  • Rubbish.

    So now this is forced on us now that the main steam app has got rid of it's built in chat.
    The reason why I never used this in the first place because it was not optimised for a tablet at had no landscape mode!
    I mean ffs i don't want to be typing on a silly little keyboard on a tablet!
