Did things change? I put a card for sale and it did not request a confirmation on my mobile, it always asked before. Is that normal?

Firstly: this should be in off-topic.
Secondly: it's random - I get it sometimes, and other times, it gets listed without confirmation.

Steam might randomly decide to not ask for confirmation for low-priced items. Usually it'll happen only once for a longer while though.

Yes, it's normal, even though the feature is so ridiculously stupid that I'm not even shocked you're asking, the next question should be which drugs Valve took when they decided that implementing this will make any sort of logic, I'm yet to meet a person who lists 1 low-valued Steam card every day and really appreciates not confirming that single listing on his authenticator.

Hey, apparently we haven't met. So far since the change I haven't gotten a single request to confirm a transaction. My account isn't "limited" so that might play into which algorithm they use, but more likely it's because you might be listing a whole lot more cards than me. As the original announcement said:

Items that typically sell for under $1.00 USD will no longer require confirmation when the list price is reasonably within the median price, but confirmation will still be required once many of those cheaper items are listed.

I'm using this nifty thing called the ASF that I have a feeling you might be familiar with to farm the cards on any new games I haven't gotten around to playing yet. Since I only buy a bundle or two a month at most I sell a dozen cards or so whenever I buy one, and then nothing until the next time.

It's nice to know that there is at least one person for whom this feature works as intended, thanks for letting me know.
