Can’t Connect Pokemon GO to Switch? Here’s What to Do!
Last updated
Trying to connect your Pokemon GO to your Nintendo Switch but running into a snag? You’re not alone! Let’s dive into why this might be happening and how you can fix it.
If you’re scratching your head wondering, “Why can’t I connect Pokemon GO to my Switch?”, worry no more. We’re here to clear up the confusion and get you back to gaming in no time.
Quick Fix for Connection Issues
First off, it’s important to check that both your Pokemon GO app and Nintendo Switch are up to date. Outdated software can often cause connection problems. So, make sure everything’s fresh and shiny!
Next, ensure that your devices are close to each other. Bluetooth connection, which is used to link Pokemon GO to the Switch, has a limited range. Being too far apart could be the reason they’re not chatting nicely.
Make the Connection Happen
If updates and proximity don’t solve the issue, try restarting both devices. Sometimes, a quick reboot is all it takes to get things working smoothly again. If that still doesn’t help, check your Bluetooth settings to make sure everything’s enabled and ready for connection.
