How Nintendo Switch Online App Works?
Since users can’t group up with friends nor chat with them through the Switch, they need the companion mobile app to do that. Other alternatives for communication is to use other services, like Skype or Discord. Currently, Nintendo is the only console maker that requires its owners to use an outside app for such online activities.
