Seems ever since I got a win phone, only thing lacking on it was a SteamGifts app, so I made one my self.

It features the important stuff, entering and exiting giveaways, commenting and replying on giveaways and forums, custom filters, searching... Login is done via steamcommunity.com open in an internal browser, a technical limitation sadly.

I don't believe in profiting from other peoples work, so there are no ads or other shananigans.

Store page for anyone interested

Criticisms and suggestions appreciated :)

Update 1 (version 1.0.0.1): An update went live today which allows users to actually post new threads, some bugs have been fixed and the store now displays proper requirements.

Update 2 (version 1.0.0.2): Fixed some scrolling issues, can now load up to 10 forum pages instead of just the front one, clicking on giveaway links in forums now opens the giveaway in the app instead of in a browser (although there is a bug regarding comments when doing this - will be fixed soon)

Update 3 (version 1.0.0.3): Scrolling reworked (again), comments bug for private giveaways fixed, added profile pages (tapping on any username will open a profile page)

Worked fine on my Omnia 7 (Windows Phone 7.8). One suggestion - icon in Metro style. I can change it myself, since i have unlock, so if you want to keep it... :). I changed almost every icon for developers, which didn't. http://imgur.com/P5T5YxS

Try and design one. I'm no good at design if I'm completely honest.

SteamGifts have so simple logo. It's just a rounded square. 5 mins in Paint.Net, finding optimal size, that's all. Still remember Akinator's logo, it was really hard for me, but worth it :). Anyway, screenshot - http://imgur.com/MpgEinD, small icon\tile - http://imgur.com/MTRseN8, large tile - http://imgur.com/zZx5Zt2. Btw, thanks for the app, not must-have for me, but still nice to have :). You can also try to make live tile with some information, like your profile stats, notifications about wins or status of your giveaways, something like that. Just imagine, you unlock your phone and live tile says you won giveaway or your giveaway ended :)

Great app but steam guard was hell to get through on my nokia lumia 710.

edit: this thing loads much faster than the web page does on my pc (both on the same wifi connection)

Glad to hear. Yeah, the steam guard thing is somewhat problematic, i suggest just full zoom out, tap on the text box and write the confirmation code even though you dont see what you are typing. I do hope valve makes a mobile friendly version.

The issue isn't that I can't see what I'm typing, it's that the code entry box was too small to click without fat fingering the submit button.

Thanks! I'd Love to use it, I always wanted this app, too bad I can't install it, it gives me an error when I try to buy it (you can't buy this app in this region)
