steam launches pinned to-do lists for every game

As part of Steam’s latest update to its platform, an integrated Notes app and a redesigned in-game overlay tool have been added. The new feature allows gamers to write thoughts and tasks about the game they’re playing and runs as an overlay, accessible across any logged-in PC and when playing games offline.

When overlaid on a game, pinned to-do lists can be adjusted for opacity, and guides, discussions, and other content can be clipped to the screen.

Further updates from Steam include a redesigned toolbar and overview. The new toolbar now features everything from chat to guides and is fully customizable. The game overview feature will also show a player’s achievement progress, gameplay stats of friends, and news about the current title.

Notifications have also received an upgrade, and there’s an in-game option for taking screenshots, which are sortable by the most recent capture, instead of per game.

The new features are currently only available through the Steam Client Beta. If you’ve never tried a Beta version before, the process is pretty straightforward. All you need to do is head to the settings (preferences if you’re a Mac user), click the Beta Participation change button in the Accounts tab, and select Steam Beta Update. Once you restart the Steam app, the Beta features will be visible.

Valve has pointed out that much development time has gone towards updating and improving code sharing between the Steam Desktop Client, the Deck, and Big Picture mode. The company notes that the upgrades should allow new features to roll out faster across different platforms.

samsung's galaxy watch 9 and ultra 2 specs leak ahead of unpacked

Samsung’s next smartwatches have little left to hide. A new leak reported by Android Authority has surfaced most of the remaining details about the Galaxy Watch 9 and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, just over a week before the company’s Galaxy Unpacked event on July 22.

The biggest change is an invisible one: Samsung is expected to drop its own Exynos W1000 chip in favor of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Wear Elite SW6100, a chipset unveiled only this year, according to the outlet.

Battery capacity looks like the other notable upgrade. Citing a report from Winfuture, Android Authority says the Watch Ultra 2 could reach 800mAh, well beyond the 590mAh cell in the current Watch Ultra. The 44mm Watch 9 reportedly gets a 445mAh cell — the same capacity as last year’s Watch 8 Classic — while the 40mm model stays at 325mAh.

The 40mm Watch 9 will reportedly feature a 438 x 438-pixel panel, with the 44mm Watch 9 and the Watch Ultra 2 sharing a larger 480 x 480-pixel screen. Samsung leaker Ice Universe has separately claimed the Ultra 2’s display could reach a peak brightness of 5,000 nits. RAM and storage vary by model, topping out at 2GB and 64GB.

The Ultra 2 keeps its titanium case and 100-meter water resistance; the standard Watch 9 remains aluminum, rated to 5 ATM. All models are said to include Bluetooth 6.0, NFC, and dual-band WiFi, with the usual LTE variants, and ship with One UI 9 Watch running on Wear OS 7.

A separate leak puts the Galaxy Watch 9 at €409 (about $468) for the 40mm Bluetooth model, rising to €489 (about $560) for the 44mm LTE version, with the Watch Ultra 2 LTE at €749 (about $857) — figures Android Authority said were partially corroborated by Winfuture. Confirmation arrives on stage on July 22.
