When Reddit user GandinkTheEmboar powered on their Switch console for the first time, they found this mysterious screenshot already saved to the photo album:
If that past is anything to go by, I'd wager that this is a diagnostic app run on all consoles on the assembly line that gets deleted if all tests are passed, but the operator accidentally took a screenshot. If that's the case, it might be possible for us to try and recover it from eMMC dumps of newly manufactured consoles once we find out how to dump from the Switch's on-board storage, just like what happened with the 3DS.
Following Nintendo's tradition of naming the app after the console's three-letter code (NTR-AGING for the DS version, CTR-AGING for the 3DS version), I wouldn't be surprised if this app was called HAC-AGING.
