A Steam companion for iPhone
Steam tells you the price and the review score. It won't tell you the last update was two years ago, or that the studio has quietly started talking about a sequel instead. StudioScore works that out from Steam's own data and shows it to you before you spend anything.
01Deals
The list is sorted by review score, but weighted by how many people actually voted. 99% from 59 000 players beats 100% from three. So the top is games plenty of people played and liked, instead of some unknown release rated by its own developers.
02A game page
Reviews as real numbers, not one coloured word. Path of Exile 2 shows 75%, and under it 168 352 positive against 56 714 negative. That tells you a lot more than "Mostly Positive" does. The studio is one tap away, and Steam's content labels are here too.
03Update rhythm
The app reads every post a studio has made about a game and works out the normal gap between real updates. Then it checks how long it has been since the last one.
Valheim was patched every 17 days for four years. It has now been quiet for 120. The posts haven't stopped, though. The studio still talks; it just isn't shipping.
04News
Save a game and its news turns up here. A full-width card marked UPDATE means the studio actually shipped something: a patch, new content, an expansion. Everything else stays a compact row, so a busy week of announcements cannot pass itself off as a busy week of work.
05Your profile
The app opens here. If something you follow has gone quiet, it says so at the top, before you have to go looking. Under that, every game you track with a coloured dot, then the plain numbers.
Overdue is the silence divided by the game's own usual gap. A game that normally waits a month is not late after five weeks; one that ships weekly is. That is why the number is relative.
| Game | Usually every | Quiet for | Overdue | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ELDEN RING | 30 days | 7 days | 0.2× | Updated regularly |
| Dota 2 | 15 days | 35 days | 2.3× | Updates are slowing |
| Valheim | 17 days | 120 days | 7.1× | Quiet for a while |
| Moonlighter | 28 days | 848 days | 30.3× | Looks abandoned |
Read from the live app on 3 September 2026. These numbers move.
You will never see "next update expected on …". Nobody knows that, the studio included. You get what already happened and decide for yourself.
With fewer than five updates there is nothing solid to measure. Rather than call a finished game abandoned, it says there isn't enough history.
Some studios tag every patch, some tag none. Posts and updates are counted separately, so a feed full of announcements doesn't look like a feed full of work.
One more giveaway. Moonlighter's own news feed brings up Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault five times. When a studio moves on, it usually says so in the old game's news, so the app counts that too.
Behind every game is a team, and you can look up what else they have made. If a studio walked away from its last four games, that is worth knowing about the fifth.
Running at twice its own usual gap or better. The studio is keeping up.
Four to ten times overdue. Not walked away from, but well past due.
More than ten times overdue — the same point at which the game's own page calls it abandoned.
A studio that left two games behind is not much use if you cannot tell which two. Every game in the list carries the same verdict its own page will show, in the same words, so the number above is one you can check.
Two kinds of game sit outside the three groups: one whose updates are merely slowing, and one with too little history to judge at all. Neither is quietly filed under “still updating”. That is why a studio can have five games and a verdict measured on two, and why the card says which two.
Digital Sun, today. Five games. Moonlighter has been silent 848 days at thirty times its old pace, so it is left behind. Moonlighter 2 is quiet but alive. The other three are too new to judge, and the app says that rather than guessing.
There is no analytics SDK in it, no advertising and no third-party trackers. Every library it uses is there to draw a screen or fetch data.
You sign in through Steam itself, so the app never sees your password. Delete your account inside the app and everything listed here goes with it.
