Steam goes MOBILE!?

[Arashikage]

Well, it was bound to happen sometime. Steam has finally come out with an android and iOS app, the official mobile version of Steam. You can now browse the catalog, view community events, and chat with friends, all from your iOS or Android enabled device! I have long awaited this event, and I'm sure I'm not alone.

Now yes, you still need to enter that stupid code when you want to log in for the first time, but that's normal for different IPs and Steam. Other than a few relocations, the app works almost exactly like the Facebook app for iOS in the sense that there's a sidebar, not another page, for all of the areas in Steam you can go. It's a very handy app, and I would urge any and all who have Steam and an Android or iOS enabled device to get it.

Yup, works pretty well but the ipod issue of the shitty keyboard strikes as always. I was using it last night to talk to Gene real fast, and yeah, does what its supposed to quite well.

Wow! I oughta give this a try sometime!

I've known about this for a while. My sister uses it on her iPod. I don't have any mobile device so *shrug*.

I do personally think Steam secretly has plans to release iOS/Android games specifically for their mobile app. Why have it if not? :S

Still, if I ever do get an iPhone/Android/whatever then it will be nice to be able to chat with friends when I'm out and not near a computer.

Just a heads-up, second-generation Ipod touches like mine won't run it. Dammit.
