📖 原文

Steam now lets you manage downloads on remote devices. It’s part of a big update Valve released for Steam on Tuesday. The update also includes gamepad improvements like a “low battery level toast” and a battery indicator in the header while you’re using wireless controllers.

The Steam Deck got a big update with many of these improvements, too. Valve says the new features are designed to make gaming more seamless across multiple devices.

With remote download management, you can start downloading a game on your home PC while you’re at work, so it’s ready to play by the time you get back. The feature works through Steam’s existing remote play infrastructure.

For controller users, the new battery indicator appears in the Steam header, giving you a quick glance at remaining power. The low battery toast notification alerts you before your controller dies mid-game — a small but welcome quality-of-life fix for wireless gamepad players.

中文翻译（仅供参考）

Steam现在支持远程管理下载了。你可以在异地控制另一台Steam设备开始下载游戏，这是Valve本周二发布的大型更新的一部分。此次更新还包括手柄改进：新增”低电量弹窗通知”，以及在无线手柄使用时于界面顶部栏显示电量指示。

Steam Deck也同步迎来了大型更新，带来了许多相同的功能改进。Valve表示，这些新功能的设计初衷是让跨设备游戏体验更加无缝流畅。

有了远程下载管理，你人在公司就能让家里电脑开始下载游戏，等你回家时游戏已经下好，可以直接开玩。该功能依托Steam现有的远程串流基础架构实现。

对于手柄用户而言，新的电量指示器出现在Steam顶部栏，让你一眼掌握剩余电量。低电量弹窗通知则会在手柄快没电时提前预警——这是一个虽然小，但无线手柄玩家无不欢迎的体验优化。
