Getting a Bluetooth mic to work on a Nintendo Switch might sound tricky, but it’s actually pretty straightforward once you know the steps. So, how do you make it happen?
Quick Steps to Connect Your Bluetooth Mic
First off, the Nintendo Switch supports wireless audio via Bluetooth after an update in September 2021. However, it doesn’t directly support Bluetooth microphones for voice chat in most games. But don’t worry, there’s a workaround!

- Ensure your Nintendo Switch is updated to the latest version.
- Pair your Bluetooth headphones or earbuds to the Nintendo Switch.
- Download the Nintendo Switch Online app on your smartphone.
