## Review summary

Users repeatedly report sign-in and account recovery problems, library loading errors, and awkward QR/login flows. Several reviews note poor UX in navigation and page back behavior, plus concerns about Steam Guard 2FA relying on email. A minority praise responsive support, account recovery, and wallet refunds, but reliability issues around login, library access, and purchases are the dominant themes.

### Pros

- Responsive, human-based account recovery and customer support
- Ability to access and reset your Steam account on the go
- Good in-app navigation for searching and discovering games
- Wallet refunds/back money via Steam Wallet

### Cons

- Frequent sign-in/login failures and inconsistent account state
- Library/content loading errors and pages not loading ("oops" or server errors)
- QR login is buggy and camera-permission handling is poor
- Forced Steam Guard 2FA tied to email raises security concerns and complicates security
- Purchasing issues and store functionality problems
