Just like the Nintendo Switch, Switch 2 allows you to capture, store, and transfer screenshots and videos of your gameplay so you can share them with friends.

From parental controls to screenshot sharing and social features, your iPhone or Android can become a surprisingly handy sidekick to your console. Here’s how to get the most out of the pairing.

Nintendo has rolled out an update to the Switch app, giving the software a new name, look, and additional features.

For families, one of the most practical tools comes via the Nintendo Switch Parental Controls app. Available on both iOS and Android, it gives parents fine-tuned control over how the console is used.
