Can You Use a Web Browser on Nintendo Switch?
Last updated
Ever wondered if you can surf the web on your Nintendo Switch? Let’s dive into this popular question.
Many gamers love their Nintendo Switch for gaming, but what about browsing the internet? Can the Nintendo Switch double as a web browser?
Short Answer: It’s Complicated
Technically, the Nintendo Switch doesn’t have an official, dedicated web browser like your computer or smartphone does. But, don’t click away just yet!
There’s a workaround that allows you to access a web browser through the system’s User Settings. This isn’t an official feature and it’s a bit hidden, but it does let you browse the internet in a pinch. However, it’s not as smooth or as functional as your typical web browser.
