How to type on Steam Deck

Best Answer

Actually, I find typing with the touch screen pretty annoying. I always hook up a Bluetooth keyboard to my Steam Deck for any serious typing. Makes life way easier, especially for chatting in games or browsing.

Just use the on-screen keyboard, man. It's not rocket science.

USB keyboards work like a charm on the Steam Deck. Plugged mine in and it was typing away with zero hassle. Not as portable, but for long typing sessions, unbeatable.

Typing on the Steam Deck is pretty straightforward. You can use the touchscreen keyboard that pops up when you need to type in a text field. It's similar to typing on a smartphone - just tap on the letters. If you're more of a physical keyboard person, the Steam Deck supports USB and Bluetooth keyboards too. Just connect your preferred keyboard, and you'll be typing away in no time!
