After NVIDIA previously released a Beta script to setup GeForce NOW on Steam Deck, they're about to make it a whole lot better with a proper native app for full Steam Deck support.
Browser is capped at 1080p and the experience is mediocre at best (and laggy) when compared to the native app. I run at 1440p and it is smooth as butter with no noticeable lag.

Geforce Now is literally the only Windows app I’ve got left. A Linux app would be the nail in the coffin for Windows in my environment.
Does it not run in the browser ?
It does, I’ve had chromium to GFN setup as a non-steam game since basically day one. Native app would probably be more convenient though.
Chrome is capped at 1080p and has more lag.
Idk about more lag, but fair point point about 1080p cap. My deck is 800p, it’s not really bothered me heh.
I regularly dock my Deck and run games at 1080p or even 2160p on my TV so there’s still a use case for Deck owners.
