Hi! I worked on SwitchU and added some new features to it. Sorry for the delay. I hope all the reported issues have been fixed, although I couldn't reproduce some of them.


Here is a quick changelog:


  • Added folder support, including folder customization and improved focus/navigation behavior inside folders.
  • Added SwitchU Manager, with an update/install flow and a localized manager UI.
  • Added SteamGridDB integration for custom game artwork, including artwork browsing, caching, and backdrop support.
  • Added a single-row app layout mode.
  • Added widgets, including battery, recent games, images/GIFs, recent activity, and clock widgets.
  • Added manual date/time controls and internet time sync handling in the System Settings.
  • Improved the settings UI with tab animations (@PtitLegume), refined glass styling, better hint bar capsules (@PtitLegume), and new controller test/options screens.
  • Improved startup and app launch behavior, including faster menu relaunches and background music fade-out when launching an app.
  • Improved theme shop/package handling and fixed theme download/install issues.
  • Improved rendering, shaders, icon streaming, blur/liquid-glass visuals, and general UI polish.
  • Fixed several stability issues related to app movement, layout changes, widgets, and controller/MissionControl behavior.

This looks like a great option for my partner's Switch. I'll have to find the time to figure out the building process though. Are there plans to release an .nro?

Edit: I've gotta learn to read for just ten more seconds before I post stuff.
