SwapDeck 1.2.0

Tag and star your games, filter by as many tags as you like, and open SwapDeck from anywhere.

🏷️ Tags

  • Games have their own tags now. Tag each game in its details, with the ready-made fps, racing and horror tags or your own
  • Accounts use the same tag editor, and tags made on games can be used on accounts and the other way round
  • Tag colours: click a tag's dot to pick one of 8 colours or any custom colour. A tag looks the same everywhere
  • Tags keep their place: ticking or unticking a tag never moves it around

⭐ Favourites

  • Star games on their cover or in their details. Starred games come first in the Library, whatever the sort
  • The account Pin is now called Favourite, and pinned accounts stay starred

🔎 New Tags filter

  • One Tags button on Accounts and Library replaces the sideways-scrolling row. Tick as many tags as you like, plus Favourites, and anything with any of them shows
  • Ticked tags show as chips you can remove, with Clear
  • In the Library, All / Steam / Non-Steam is now its own switch

⌨️ Tray panel shortcut

  • Optionally open the tray panel from any app with Ctrl + Alt + S. Off by default: Settings → General, under "Keep running in the tray"
  • Change the key to any combination of two of Ctrl, Alt and Shift plus a key. SwapDeck tells you if another program already uses it, and refuses keys that would block typing (like AltGr characters on European keyboards)

✨ App

  • "Restart now" shows Installing update, SwapDeck reopens in a few seconds instead of just closing, and waits while a game you launched through SwapDeck is still running, so your display and sound are put back first
  • The switching screen shows the account's avatar
  • Backups are checked more carefully when restoring

ℹ️ Good to know

  • Games no longer show the tags of the account they launch with, so tag them in their details
  • "Accent follows the running game's tag" now uses those game tags

Install: download SwapDeck-Setup-1.2.0.exe below. If you already have SwapDeck installed, it updates itself. The portable .exe doesn't auto-update.
