How to Put a Password on Your Nintendo Switch

Ever wondered how to keep your Nintendo Switch safe and secure? Well, putting a password on it is a great way to start. Let’s dive into how you can do just that.

So, you’re looking to add a layer of security to your Nintendo Switch by setting up a password, right? You’re in the right place to learn how!

Quick Guide to Securing Your Switch

Adding a password to your Nintendo Switch isn’t exactly straightforward because the system itself doesn’t use ‘passwords’ in the traditional sense. Instead, you’ll set a PIN via the Parental Controls feature.

First, you’ll need to download the Nintendo Switch Parental Controls app on your smartphone. This app allows you to link to your Switch and set various controls, including a PIN that acts as your password. Once set up, anyone trying to access your Switch will need this PIN to use it, keeping your device and digital purchases safe from unwanted access.
