So I've been using steam for over a year now and everything was fine until steam escrow came out, at first it was fine, my login was being saved and everything was going smooth but for the last two months or so, I need to type my login info everytime and type the code from my mobile, and that's driving me crazy, Iam using spark browser (I dunno why but using it for long made me stick to it) it copies chrome add-ons and can extract cookies from other browsers, tried the cookie manager add-on to save the login cookie but cookies keep deleting themselves no matter what I do, feel free to share your opinions in this thread and Let's help each other!

They require the auth code constantly now when using browser, no way around it. It will stay saved for around 5 - 10 minutes then require it again.

Really? I use 3 accounts, and they rarely get logged out, not until the cookies expire.

I'm not logged out, but stuff like buying games, sending gifts, etc, that requires me to do auth junk.

Works for me on Firefox and Chrome. It saves the login, but you have to click the Login button every time you start a new session.

Oh it's supposed to work like that. It always requires a second authentication for anything involving purchases or a transfer of items.

I'm aware, I just mention that because it could have something to do with the whole topic being about entering that stuff all the time.

Not sure if it's your browser's problem.

I've been using Chrome all the while, and my login is always saved until I close the browser (as what I configured it to do). I used a plug-in to check the cookies' expiration dates, they are all set as next year.

Maybe it's one of your browser setting.

I use mobile authenticator.

steamLogin should expire in 1 year, but steamRememberLogin should expire after only 10 days since your last visit :P

I've read about a workaround for Chrome using the add-on iam currently using for spark to extend cookies expiration date, I did everything as shown but spark seems to be so faulty even if it used to be a Chrome alternative!
