Ratings and Reviews
UI looks so much better, buts cost basic functionality
The UI refresh is shall I say refreshing. I can easily find what I’m looking for, check game reviews and add to my wishlist. However when it comes to buying games, the app has issues when buying games via card or PayPal. If you pay via PayPal you are redirected to a screen with a yellow PayPal button which isn’t mapped anywhere. If you pay by card you will get a payment provider timeout issue and the money is placed on hold, but Steam never get the success message back to complete the transaction. This works fine everywhere else but the Steam Mobile app.
If you want the app to buy stuff, don’t bother use the Safari web browser
Frustrating experience
The app experience isn’t too bad. Purchasing is very annoying. The refund experience is poor. I purchased a game and played it for a few hours. The game was then updated and then I had problems with lag and stuttering. Unfortunately despite the update changing the user experience Steam won’t refund or sort the game. You’re dependent on future updates. They don’t even offer any support to help optimise the experience. My pc is a decent pc. Unfortunately I won’t be buying another game from Steam given the risk of the game not been playable following updates with regard to their current refund policy.
Also, don’t buy a steam deck from them. They end up not being delivered and tend to go missing during transit prompting text discussions with Steam (no customer service hotline) and a future claim with PayPal. Reduced to 1 star as a result…unable to put 0 stars.
Useless for iPad
I’ve been using the steam app for years on my iPad but the update forces it to use it in portrait mode instead of landscape. Who the heck is going to hold a 12.9” tablet like a mobile phone to use this app? Did anyone think? Update: you can finally use the app in landscape, as before and like the PC has always been. But the separate chat app on iPad is still poor due to the tiny keyboard. Please reintegrate chat on the iPad version of the app which should be more like a desktop experience anyway.
Update: Since they overhauled the app you can’t buy anything because the app doesn’t refresh when you have to navigate away to do things like verify payment details. I’ve finally uninstalled this and just log into the browser instead. If I could give it less than one star I would.
