Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator Beta

Welcome to the Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator Beta group.

The Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator will soon be in limited beta as a feature of the iOS and Android mobile applications (which will be updated soon). The authenticator provides two-factor login to Steam. It also provides additional ways to protect and recover your account.

Beta participants will be selected from members of this group. Join now to express your interest in participating. Please share your thoughts and feedback in the discussions.

Please note that we are enabling only Android devices today. We will be testing on iOS devices when the iOS app is released (which should be soon).

All accounts in the beta group are now enabled to try the Mobile Authenticator.
We've made fixes to all aspects, there is an Android app update, please update the app. An iOS update is coming very soon.

Once again, after you add the authenticator to your account you'll be asked for the current code every time you log in to Steam. You can still choose to "remember" your login, so you won't have to type in a code every time you open the Steam client or store pages.

Please post issues and comments to the pinned thread for this. Thank you!

Updates and more accounts enabled

12. toukokuuta 2015 - LarryUmelmahay | 67 kommenttia

We've updated the sign up process and server side behaviors and enabled another ~2000 accounts. There is no app update at this time.

You may now add a phone number to your account without adding 2 factor, to access this functionality go to your "account" page ( find the drop down with your account name in the top left, and click on "account details".
Adding a phone number will give you another password recovery option in the near future. It also streamlines the process of signing up for 2 factor.

To check if your account has been enabled for the authenticator, go to the app's Steam Guard menu and select 'Change Settings'. If your account has the authenticator enabled you will see three choices, including one saying 'Get Steam Guard codes by phone'. (If you only see two choices -- one for 'Email' and one for 'None' -- then your account isn't enabled for the authenticator yet. Patience, please).

Once again, after you add the authenticator to your account you'll be asked for the current code every time you log in to Steam. You can still choose to "remember" your login, so you won't have to type in a code every time you open the Steam client or store pages.

Please post issues and comments to the pinned thread for this. Thank you!
