Steam Deck specific changes:

  • Show battery information for connected Bluetooth devices under Settings->Bluetooth and in the Quick Access menu.
  • Added a per-device toggle to Settings->Bluetooth that controls whether a device is allowed to wake SteamDeck from sleep.
  • Fixed a bug that would cause the UI to show stale data for Bluetooth devices.
  • Fixed clickable screenshots in the post-game summary and library screenshot section not opening the screenshot dialog to the correct item.
  • The magnifier scale can now be configured in Settings->Display.

This update has replaced 3 different Decky plugins for me: Controller tools (for showing controller battery), BT wake control (for controlling what BLE devices wake the deck), and the Bluetooth plugin (used for quick connections to Bluetooth devices that don't automatically connect).

The update also has a lot of desktop changes, click through to the article to see them all.

Hm... I don't see this as an option for Xbox Controllers (but do see the battery indicator).

Curious

Finally the wake on Bluetooth is solved!

Does this work for older Deck models or only the OLED model?

[-] Fubarberry@sopuli.xyz 11 points 5 months ago

Only the OLED model. The OLED model's Bluetooth chip supports BT low energy mode, while the LCD model does not. Low energy mode is required for the wake up functionality, or it would consume far too much battery in sleep mode.

Improved Gyro To Mouse behavior when connected over bluetooth.

Wish they added more details; this could be big or not much at all.
