    I could swear they had this before. When BG3 came out i left my PC on before going to work, then BG3 released while i was at work so i used my phone’s steam app to start the download onto the PC. It didn’t have such a fancy UI but I’m sure it was possible.

      They did, but I think it only worked in the library view on the web and it was generally pretty clunky.

      Yeah they had it on the website and the app for a long while now, but it was kinda hidden. Now it’s directly on the Steam client so more people can use it
