Watching broadcasts through the official Steam app can be slow and tedious, with this free Steampowered broadcast and chat app, free Steam games have never been so easy to watch.
The great thing about Steam broadcasting is how simple it is to start up a broadcast and go live. Not everyone has the technical skills to use OBS or other broadcasting software but live streaming Steam games is just one click away. This makes it that much easier to watch smaller streams and chat with the Steam community, or just spectate your friends while they play.

5 ★ Brilliant app, always used to watch friends steam broadcasts!
1 ★ completely broken was working but steam firewalls this app now
4 ★ First off, I'm giving you 4 stars because I believe it's hard to maintain a free app like this. Must've taken a lot of effort, and since it's the only app of the kind it's a blessing for the people who are using this without any issues. Although, I have faced a couple of issues. 1. Shows a lot of friends are offline when they aren't. Shows only a couple of friends as in-game when there are more. 2. Can't tap on a few friends that the app shows as offline to view their broadcast when they are actually online and in-game because not all of them are shown on the app. I have about 400 friends on Steam and seems like the app only shows about 150ish. 3. Can't use the vanity name feature because the 'following' page buffers forever. Never loads. I have tried reinstalling the app a few times hoping that it would work. Even tried relogging in to my account and switched to other accounts. For the most part, it only works when the friend is shown on the list as offline. Sometimes lucky when it shows as in game. I have also made sure they have their broadcast settings enabled. Good luck to you guys and I hope this is fixed soon; my 4 star rating is the only, small way I could show endorsement to you guys. I really appreciate your effort into making this app. Edit - okay initially I gave you 2 stars accidently, lol, my bad
5 ★ Became fully loaded with ads to a point where you can't even load a video. I don't recommend using the app. It was perfect in the beginning, saved lots of time and has a very high quality video but now very bad due to the ads. [UPDATE] The Developpers Kindly replied back and they fixed the issue, glad they did. I can now watch my friends when I'm away. THANK YOU. (Definitely Giving The App 5 Stars Now)
5 ★ UPDATE: I had an issue, and the maker delivered. The app is fully functional again. It's great. Why take away the "Try Anyway" feature? now my friends have to change their privacy settings for game details to public. None of us have any interest in doing that.
1 ★ trying this out and having no success. ive followed every instruction to get it to work but nothing. friends set their settings up, i entered the "myvanity" thing, which was just a string of numbers for the friend i was trying to watch, i uninstalled and reinstalled. im at a loss. great idea, but no good on execution.
1 ★ Too much ads! Unable to watch. Broadcast lags then freezes. When you restart it will load endlessly. I love the idea of this app please fix it!
5 ★ app worked for what i needed. only improvements I can think, add volume controls and allow us to fullscreen without putting phone in landscape. i have an s6
3 ★ i understand why you guys put ads before watch the stream but its kinda annoying im just hoping that got removed and also add chat when using fullscreen mode
3 ★ Video stream is great but sound stopped working on anything but the ads.
5 ★ I like being able to watch broadcasts on the phone but the ads are annoying
1 ★ Not able to chat and too much advertisement even i can not connect the game itself!
3 ★ Chat doesn't work
4 ★ Hate the ad banner on the bottom but love the app.
5 ★ This as to be the best app ever i can whatch me and my gurlfriend play
