[App] I recently made an update to my SD Card scanning app [GitHub - ddotthomas/SteamDeck_SD_Card_Scanner: A program to keep track of the games on the SD card on a Steam Deck] (github.com)

I made this app to help me keep track of the different games I have on each of my SD cards. If you have 2 or more SD cards that you swap between and you're ever trying to remember which one has which, this app will help you out.

Right now it's a completely stand-alone app that I recommend launching through Steam. I might one day look into making a version as Decky loader plugin that more people might use.

As there's no official game-pad layout I would just switch to the 'Web Browser' layout provided by Valve as it has a mouse scroll wheel bound to the left track-pad and the mouse cursor on the right.

The first thing you'll probably notice is there's some resolution bug with the app where if you launch it in Desktop Mode, the font and dividers are much much larger than they should be. Otherwise, if you launch it in gaming mode, the mouse cursor can only reach about 40% of the display area for some reason. ¯\(ツ)/¯ If you have any clue on what might help, please feel free to reach out on GitHub or here

Since I last posted about my app, I've added a search bar to help filter the list for any specific game you might be looking for; and also improved the UI and coloring.

Thank you for reading my whole post, please share it to any friends you think might find it helpful or interesting.

Thanks for making stuff like this, I only use 1 SD card personally, but I could see this being really handy for people.
