Just merge the steam chat with the origional steam app
I dont get why steam chat is a seperate app from the actual steam app since youve updated the mobile layout to do basically everything you can do on the pc except play games and chat with friends. its kinda annoying having to download another app just so that i can talk to my friends

idk how difficult the process is on merging two apps but i would assume its similar to updating the origional app's ui and removing the other from the app store

please just merge the two apps together

also the steam chat app itself became buggy over time like you cant even change ur alias or send images anymore so pls fix the bugs too

Because users wanted it separated.

from the apple store reviews and also the comments in this announcement, it seems like the steam app had a chat system but the ui was terrible,

im just wondering, why not like update the original ui to be much better instead of creating an app instead

If you read the other comments in the announcement, a lot of users wanted it separated.

Because these people would be like.

"We don't need the extra bloat of the other stuff Steam has. We just want the chat."

At one time the Authenticator and Chat apps were the same app, but users wanted them separate, so Valve sperated them.

they remove the authenticator and just combined it with the actual app,

idk maybe its better if they were seperated, i just find it a issue ngl
