Portal

The portal is the suite's fullscreen app library. Use the category tabs to browse apps and launcher cards. Choose an app tile to open an installed app or install it. An app tile's menu also offers updates and uninstalling. The header buttons refresh the installed-app list, show system information, install all missing apps in the current category, and install all available updates.

The Media category contains launcher cards rather than installable apps. YouTube, Twitch, X, Instagram, Discord, TikTok, WhatsApp Web and Netflix open fullscreen in Brave Browser; Spotify and Stremio open their apps. Install each required Flatpak before opening its card. Netflix playback also requires Widevine enabled in Brave.

Press ☰ or the controller's Start button to open Settings. There you can choose whether app icons appear on the Desktop, turn sounds on or off, change the suite theme, choose a wallpaper, set the clock's format and time zone, choose a weather location, and adjust controller touchpad speed. The date and time stay visible in the header. With Icons on Desktop off, the portal removes suite app shortcuts at startup and after an installation. The portal's own shortcut and the apps' menu entries stay in place.

Use the controller's directional controls to move between tiles, A to open or install, B to go back, X for a tile's menu, and the shoulder buttons to change categories. Keyboard arrows, Enter, Escape and the mouse work as well. The required Bazzite Test app is installed with the portal and cannot be removed from its menu.
