Steam -> Settings -> Right in front of you, next to a green symbol.

It doesnt show the time that s left until you re able to trade again though. (Or reverse: How long you ve had it enabled until now)


Basically it s like this:
You add mobile authenticator, have to wait for 7 days until you can trade again (you actually can trade, but then you got a trade hold of 72h by valve in order to make scams less efficient and give people the option to rethink their choice. If you cancel an offer you agreed to, you will be issued a 7 days trade ban though)


So yeah, I d also be interested to know that. I ve just checked and I activated my steamguard basically 7days ago. I can hopefully come back here in a few hours and tell you it worked exactly like that.

I dont think there is any counter or something like that. After 7 days you will be able to trade with your phone instantly.

Guys I figured it out!!!!! go to your email, search steam mobile then hit enter.
Find the email that says you have signed up for steam mobile authentication and hover your mouse over the date the email was sent to you. It will tell you what time in hours and days

I enabled the steam mobile guard 7 days ago but in those 7 days i changed back to the email version then changed back to the mobile steam guard version, my question is, do you have to enable mobile steam guard for 7 days straight without swapping to email confirmation?

[Jazmine Montgomery]

wait a second.... but my steam guard mobile thing was activated 11 days ago and I still have the 72 hour ban.....

Is the [Confirmation of Trades] enabled then?:

Also note that in trades where you're receiving items, the other party must also meet these requirements.

Yes, if you want to avoid trade holds you need to keep two-factor authentication enabled.

Double check that you have Confirmation of Trades enabled as well. If you've had both two-factor authentication and Confirmation of Trades enabled for at least 1 full week, open up a support ticket and attach screen captures showing that you have both enabled.
