Steam Login History OS Type -203
https://help.steampowered.com/en/accountdata/SteamLoginHistory

I found these on Reddit:
  • 16 means Windows
  • -400 means your mobile phone
  • -1 means the website
  • -192 linux - ubuntu

But I couldn't find what -203 means anywhere
About 95% of my logins are from -400 and -203
And other 5% are 16, -1 and -192

But I still can't figure out what -203 means.
Does anybody knows?

Is the location presicion of steam log in attempts good because i got a few that is in my country (smol country) but different city. Most of them have a log in attempt when im at school.

Those listed are successful logins.

:qr:
a lot of those could also be your mobile phone. i realised i seen a bunch and than later found out.. my mobile device was the one constantly moving around and changing my login location.( based apon when,where i opened it.. i felt dumb when i field tested it since your steam mobile app is ( loggin into your account ) that is constantly not a set location when you open said app. an since i was a mobile tech. well..

also just realised this was necro'd but hillarious as i just learned about this myself last month


best way to test. deauthorie all devicces ( instantly logs you out your steam mobile auth ) relog back in phone. than recheck that list. you will see taht same login number and current location for phonne tower :) and depending on make of phone mine showing -400 + -1 was what mine showed as while listing the tower my phone was appaerntly connected to was STuPId far away... ( makes me want to question my provider tbh why my closest cell tower is taht far )

ive tried that, but the problem is when I'm at school I don't have my pc with me, so I cant test if its the same city. But, the login times was when I was usually on my phone. All I'm worried about is if someone is in fact in my account and cheating in games to get me vacced, because there's a ban delay. Sorry if it sounds weird but I'm just worried.

ok so maybe I'm not hacked because I tried that, looked at the steam logins. it was the exact time i logged into auth and pc.
i was at a city i have never even heard of.
Soooo i guess steam has a terrible location pinpointing system. But my last question is, when i have logged in on my phone at my house, it said i haven't logged out yet even when i close my phone. when i first got the successful log in attempt in a far city, it said it logged out after a few minutes. the thing that makes this more stressful is its when i usually had my phone out, so its even harder. Sorry for asking but does this sometimes happen to you? the never log out part, even when you closed your phone and steam app. I'm just worried, hopefully you get me. tysm for the help btw, I really appreciate it, since this is an old discussion.

It's an old discussion, but it is still a valuable one. I've been on Steam for about eighteen years and there is stuff in here I just learned from reading this thread.

I wish I could answer your question, but I cannot. It could simply be a delay in updating the information. Try actually logging out instead of just shutting off your phone. Also, do what others have suggested and forcefully log out all connections. (Make sure your password is new/safe, of course.)

Personally, I change my passwords regularly. I have verified that The Dark Web has my old passwords floating around on it from eighteen years ago.

------------------

Updated Legend for Steam Login History:

-1 is the website (via browser)
16 is Windows (Steam application)
-88 is MacOS (we think)
-400 is your mobile phone
-192 is Linux where the major kernel version is 4 but the minor version is unknown
-203 is Linux where the kernel version is unknown
-700 is "other" (we think)

Thank you for including that.

What did it say on your Steam login history? Did it say anything other than where you live? Because I also got -700 for the first time at 6:33 P.M., but I think I checked my login history at that time, and it said it was where I live, but I didn't log on, I just got on the Steam website which does not count as a login.

Apologies for necro, I'm just going through the same thing here and this was the only good post I could find.

Web has different OS types; -700 is the web chat while -1 is just an official website from a browser.
