Multi-windowed Waydroid apps not working on Gaming Mode
I followed all of the setup directions for waydroid and was able to add android apps to steam and have them work in gaming mode. I changed waydroid to multi-window in desktop mode but can’t get the apps to run anymore in gaming mode. Is it possible to keep multi-window on and still have the apps run in gaming mode? If so, how?

no as gamemode only allows 1 window at a time to be displayed and all the multi windows will be owned by waydroid meaning gamescope (the program that drives gamemode along with steam) will not like that
Thank you for responding! Funnily enough I was able to make it work when I added “force restart waydroid” as its own non-steam game. But you’re definitely right that game mode doesn’t like it because it’s super finicky. YouTube and YouTube music will work but they’re incredibly unreliable and don’t open maybe 50% of the time
