Remotely downloading free games
How can I remotely download free games using the steam mobile app? I currently cannot find a way to do this. If no such method exists, please add one. (I was going to write something really long for this discussion, but it got deleted since I accidentally went back on the mobile client)

Add the game to your library from the store page.

Go to your profile, select Games to view your games list.

Make sure the app can see your client on your PC. Both must be logged into Steam.

Search for the game in the games list and select the download button on the right in the game tile.

I don't understand why the mobile client won't let me do this through the store or library pages...
Still seems like an issue with the mobile client if I can't remotely download free games through the library page like every other game...

Interesting update in the beta branch...

Demos can now be installed and uninstalled remotely via your profile games list.

... actually let's me download a F2P game from the mobile library list now.
