Steam mobile flickering
Hello, I just want to share this terrible moment that I've just experienced right now with the mobile app, suddenly I couldn't use my mobile app anymore because the app was never loading and then the screen quickly flickers with some steam interface but I can't use the app anymore because of that, I just god immediately desperated because I can't use the authenticator to login anymore cuz the screen is just stopped. I just want to know if any of you guys have been through the same situation and what I can do to solve this problem.

Same. Reinstalling the app fixed the issues for me temporarily, but black screens again when I try to open the app after exit.

i made a new account just now and was about to add a mobile authenticator to it and encountered this problem. I deleted the app, downloaded it, and logged in my main acc which is this and it works just fine. It only bugs when i login the new acc

Is your account getting trade restrictions/trdaeholds when deleting and reinstalling the app?

I tried it now, if you reinstall the app you will get 2-day tradehold when trading away your items or selling your items on steam market but you can receive incoming item trades from other users instantly

Same issue here. I have contacted Steam Support but no fix yet.

Reinstall only worked for the first launch for me. After that - back to the gray screen.
