### 2/5 — fix the sign in

*2026-08-20, version 3.10.9*

i tried the sign in and it either said “retry couldnt sign in” or it didnt let me do it. And i was just trying to play msm karaoke

### 5/5 — It just works

*2026-08-20, version 3.10.9*

Never had an issue.

### 1/5 — Please Steam fix this

*2026-08-19, version 3.10.9*

I try to make an account with my password but it says it is wrong. So I changed my password, but it still says it is the wrong password!

### 1/5 — Never without problems

*2026-08-19, version 3.10.9*

There’s a new thing where the games on sale notification takes me to a broken screen that only shows me 2 of the games. Refreshing doesn’t help. Closing the app doesn’t help. Backing out and doing it through steams notification screen doesn’t help. Guess I won’t see those games. Love you Valve, if getting a working client means anything else about you changes, then keep Steam busted.

### 1/5 — Very bad

*2026-08-19, version 3.10.9*

I installed everything and still asking to download this game is horrendous I hope valve gets sued

### 3/5 — Why the library Isint working

*2026-08-19, version 3.10.9*

When I got it I decided to check the library but it wodent work tho

### 1/5 — Worst

*2026-08-19, version 3.10.9*

I can’t sign in and it’s the worst

### 5/5 — Great!

*2026-08-18, version 3.10.9*

I use this to update and download games on my pc

### 1/5 — Boycott steam

*2026-08-18, version 3.10.9*

Don’t use this app, don’t use the company. They’re just going to rip you off eventually. Customer support is unhelpful so save yourself the hassle and buy from someone else

### 2/5 — …..

*2026-08-18, version 3.10.9*

This is not what I thought. I thought you could get workshop items on your mobile device, but it does send it to your computer…… sign in is easy though. (if you know your password.)
