Using your phone as a controller for the Nintendo Switch is a game-changer. You'll need to download an app called JoyCon Droid, which is available on both the Play Store and Apple Store.

The app is still in public alpha, so it can be a bit finicky, but it works. To get started, head to the app and follow the steps: download the app, turn on your Nintendo Switch, and go to 'Controllers'.

You'll need to pair your phone with the Switch by holding the '-' button and pressing the Sync button on the app. Allow your phone to be discovered and wait for the connection to be established.

You can now use your phone as a controller, and the app even allows you to choose the kind of controller you're using, such as a left or right JoyCon, or a Pro Controller.

To choose the kind of controller, simply select it on startup, and you're good to go.
