The Nintendo Switch Online App has received a new update in the U.S. which brings some great upgrades to the app.

GameXplain shared a video giving a tour of the latest update to the Nintendo Switch Online App which is a service provided by Nintendo to allow voice chat for multiplayer games with friends on mobile devices.

The new update lets you do a bit more than that including seeing which of your friends are online, adding new friends directly through your phone, and what games people on your friends list are playing.

This seems like a small change but a useful one to let you see friends’ statuses without pulling out your Switch console.
