Description

Take your Steam friends, groups, and conversations with you wherever you go.
The Steam Chat app includes many key features of the desktop Steam client chat, including:
Friends List – See who’s in game or online at a glance. You'll see your custom categories and favorites bar just like you can on your PC. (repeated above)
Rich Chat – Your chats get even better with higher fidelity links, videos, tweets, GIFs, Giphy, Steam emoticons, and more.
Invite Links – Add new friends on Steam with a link. Generate an invite link you can text or email.
Customizable Notifications – Mobile notifications mean you'll never miss a message or game invite. You can customize your notifications per friend, group chat, and chat channel.
Group Chats - Get everyone on the same page. Groups make it easier to do things like stay in touch with your communities and organize game night with your best friends.

Why separate this from the main app this is Facebook level of stupidity, just give me one good reason why this is adding an extra level of annoyance. And there’s no good reason I can think of doing this just add it back to the main app and get rid of this abomination.

A few years ago my steam chat stopped sending push notifications regardless of settings in app or iPhone. Regular steam app sends them fine for reminders about sales etc.
What's worse is friend status doesn't update/refresh for about 30 seconds after opening app. It shows their cached, previous status from last time the app was open hours ago!
If i notice a new message received (only indication is the red circle on the app icon,) opening the app won't show any new message for half a minute too it'll pretend there aren't any.
Pull down to refresh doesn't fix, force close/swipe up sometimes improves load speed.
Issues encountered over multiple devices, none of my last few iPhones have worked. Known issues with no fix found when you google "steam app lag" or "refresh."

Often bugged and wouldn’t let me connect, wouldn’t send messages. Then it stopped giving me notifications when I received messages, but I’d still get the little red marker on the app on my homepage. Now the app doesn’t even do that anymore lol. What’s the point of a chatting app that doesn’t have basic features?

i don't understand how this is so bad. steam messaging works fine on pc. for some bizarre reason, on this app, i don't receive any notifications (despite turning them on) and i have to check the app constantly for new messages. despite that, i still just don't get messages. i'll open the homepage, it doesn't show new messages. i'll open a text convo, there will be no new messages. then, i'll check like 4 hours later, and turns out i got a message five hour before! seriously? why didn't it show up as a notification? or when i opened the app? OR WHEN I OPENED THE CONVERSATION??? ridiculous, how do you mess up this bad?

The characters are only about 2.5 mm in height when used on an ipad. In both portrait or landscape mode it is the same at a tiny 12 cm for the long side of the the app. Why did apple allow this past its usually very good quality control?

Mobile steam app on my iPhone 12 is one of my most used apps. Checked today and saw it updated and chat is now a seperate app. Jarring experience to users with no warning or notification of this happening. This doesn’t need to be stand alone please integrate back with steam app

i really don't understand why people are rating this so pathetically low. the app does its job, it's actually well made (which is surprising because you'd expect something lazy for a mobile app) and has literally no issues. it's completely fine, please reviewers, stop complaining. if it's that big of an issue then stick to pc chat.

Yes, it is good but no one asked for this and it didn’t need to be made. Valve should have upgraded the original Steam app instead of making this.

Valve should use the resources it spends on this to fix and improve the Steam app. Why duplicate the chat feature in this app?
Or at least add steam guard to this app. I mean seriously, if I want to have functional chat AND steam guard enabled, I have to have two apps on my phone.
Or here’s a crazy thought: allow us to use Google authenticator instead!
What a waste!

2 stars because they wasted resources making a good chat app rather than fixing the official auth app that has chat already. If the team is capable to make this, why can’t they fix and streamline the official app?
