yup they need the mobile app specifically because there was trade frauds happened before, with cs items that costs hundreds. They can’t just go with using a normal TOTP because the mobile app is also a 2 factor approval for every single trades you are attempting to make.
I think you can go without mobile app and use only e-mails, but it will cause the items to be held for days which people who trade frequently will not want to trade with you as their inventory moves fast.
Im… not sure? Maybe to trade the cards you get? I have steam and no mobile app, soooooo

Thanks for the info! Thats not a feature of steam ive interacted with, but it makes sense. Though would be mice if they implemented other 2fa options
