Hey I know you're not really supporting the app anymore but I just wanted to know if there was a way to send the keys for your created giveaways from the app, cause I can't find one..

The app does not deal with keys at all (for winning or for giving away). You have to do that from the regular website.

I always imagined handing out gifts or keys using the app would be super impractical and way easier using an actual computer, so that's nothing I really ever thought of as needed.

Yeah you're probably right. I didn't think I would need it until I arrived in China and realized I can't log into the regular website because steam is blocked here (but sg works). We found a way around it tho so I guess it worked out fine :)

I'm sad to see you go and leave the app behind, but I really appreciate all the work you've put into it over the years. Thank you very much, and good luck in your future endeavors, my friend.

Ok, it stopped loading every giveaway. Looks like I'm going to have to take a look at it, it's going to take me a while, I'm busy with something else now.
Here's the link for the source if someone else wants to help out https://github.com/SteamGifts/SteamGifts
I'm just a basic b*tch android dev :P

I actually did fork the project a while ago to integrate ESGST into it, and I never had time to start working on it. This might be the push I need. :)

Well it's started working again. But I was planning to go through the code. Next week I'm going to have time.

Where can I install the app?

Install F-Droid.
https://f-droid.org/

It's like an open source Google Play Store alternative.
Then search for SteamGifts.

Or install the SG app by compiling the source yourself...
https://github.com/SteamGifts/SteamGifts

As noted in the topic, the app is no longer supported, so some features may no longer work, or may stop working at any time.

Mostly fine. Still using it myself, too. SGTools doesn't work anymore, but that's about it.

Sgtools? I didn't know it was build into the App in the first place.

Hey I am also still using the app, found a bug and would like to fix it myself and send a pull request. But before I put effort into this, is there someone still maintaining this project (accepting pull requests and building and publishing new releases)?

The bug I found, if a giveaway I bookmarked gets deleted it is stuck in the bookmarked list forever since I am not able to open it, which is required to remove the bookmark.

I mean I'd look at all PRs, just so far there have been none.

You can long-press on a bookmark to remove it, even if you can't open the GA?

Hmm. An update was just pushed out for this a few days ago -- F-Droid is bugging me about it.

That’s the way things are sometimes.

Any idea what the update is? Did you push it through?

I did make these changes, so I do know, yes.

Mostly clean up - removes broken sgtools parts, donation links (which, to be honest, got a handful of donations early on and that no one used in the past years) and targets a somewhat newer SDK version so that you can compile it out-of-the-box if you check out the project.

F-Droid has a link to the repo on the store site: https://f-droid.org/de/packages/net.mabako.steamgifts/

https://github.com/SteamGifts/SteamGifts/compare/v1.5.11...v1.5.13
(which also shows up on the GitHub profile, under contribution activity)

As far as I know, F-Droid doesn't push updates if these changes weren't made in the source repository, and outside of moving the repository altogether (for example, if i decide to rename the github project), the url to the repository doesn't change.

Bumping this since people are not aware that this app exists and it's still great, although it's not being actively updated.
It still works great.

use it exclusively and, knock on wood, no problems. Kinda wish there was an officially supported app, that'd be great

Interesting. I think I knew about the app but wasn't happy with it, so I've just used a tab in Chrome ever since and that works just as well for me.
you did get my hopes up a little with this bump though, ngl

I think it's great considering it is not being updated.
But it's better than a chrome tab I think
The only disadvantage I see is not being able to redeem gifts or send gifts. (and nowadays, people get jumpy if you are online, entering GA's and not redeeming won gifts).
SG tools links also don't work.
But you can use the desktop for those.
