Can a Nintendo Switch Connect to AirPods? Let’s Find Out!

Last updated
Ever wondered if your Nintendo Switch can team up with your AirPods for a wireless gaming experience? We’ve got the scoop!
Can you really connect your AirPods to a Nintendo Switch? It’s a burning question for gamers who love their Apple gadgets just as much as their gaming consoles. Let’s dive into the answer.
Yes, But You’ll Need a Little Help
Good news, gamers! You can indeed connect your AirPods to your Nintendo Switch, but it’s not as straightforward as you might hope. The Nintendo Switch does not natively support Bluetooth audio, which means you can’t connect AirPods (or any Bluetooth headphones, for that matter) directly to the console out of the box.
However, don’t fret! There’s a simple workaround. With the use of a Bluetooth adapter that plugs into the Switch’s USB-C port or headphone jack, you can wirelessly connect your AirPods. These adapters are relatively inexpensive and easy to find online.
