You don't really 'alt-tab' on the Steam Deck like on a traditional PC. But pressing Steam + X gets the job done for swapping apps.
To alt-tab on your Steam Deck, just press the Steam button + X. This combo lets you quickly switch between your game and other running applications, giving you that smooth alt-tab functionality you're used to on PC.
Steam + X is the trick! Have been doing this to switch between games and the browser all the time. Works like a charm.
