Hello there, loving your homebrew, just start using it, but got me to my Wii times thanks a lot.

A couple of suggestions:
  • After you get the code of NX-Activity-Log-NPE with the starting folder dynamic, you could consider put the login.txt file on SD:/Config/NX-Activity-Log-NPE to go with the flow of the majority of homebrew.
  • Add a section on "settings" menu to edit the config.txt file (user & password fields)
  • When selecting "Upload to Nintendo Profiles" a sort of progress bar could be useful, or any feedback, in some of my test the screen seems freezed but only took more time than expected to upload the data.
  • On the page https://www.phalk.net/nintendo after creating my profile, even if my browser is on English and my OS is on English too, the confirmation message was on kinda "Spanish" (I live on Colombia), let me know if I can help you with the translations of the page and/or NX-Activity-Log-NPE.
  • Consider push NPE to tallbl0nde's github.
Thanks a lot for your hard work.

Thank you for the suggestions!
Yeah, I thought about using the already existing NXAL config.ini in the config directory to store the username and password but I decided to make a separate file in the same place as the NRO for ease of use right now. The next step is to be able to edit the username and password from within the settings, like you suggested, then it would save it in the default config.ini and there would be no need for a separate file.
About the feedback, I agree, I should take a better look at Aether so I could at least pop a message up to report it was successful or a failed upload. But you're right: the default behaviour is a little freeze while it is uploading the data.
About the message, opsie, that was a slip on my part, since I'm a native portuguese speaker (that was the language you saw haha).

ohh, I see, yes that´s why seems a little "odd" but in Portuguese is OK, sorry, I mean no to make any assumptions. Don't forget I could help to translate to Spanish booth the page and the code, I am not versed on Portuguese but can read basic one.

Now you can share your entries individually and the meta-data updates accordingly. Example on discord (also works on other social medias):

This link https://www.phalk.net/nintendo/profile.php?id=1&share=0100000011d90000 embeds on Discord like this:

Btw, sorry for hijacking the thread with this project, I'll make a separate thread about it.

@phalk thanks for doing this, the page has a very professional looking, and can monitorizing and organize my big backlog :P

I can't make it display all my games however, some missing games: SMT V, ApeOut, DOOM 64, SMT III, Ryza 2, Metal Slug Serie, Resident Evil serie, Kirby Super Star, Yoshi's Crafted World, Luigi's Mansion, Fire Emblem 3 Houses, Fire Emblem Warriors, Hyrule Warriors, GRIS, Dex, West of Dead, Ace Attorney Trilogy, DKCR: TF, Forgotton Anne, Cave Story+, Ikaruga, Binding of Isaac, BoTW, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, etc... All of them are USA releases, if that matters, maybe they have different ID from EUR/JAP

If I clicked the Home Button or switched the Switch to sleep while the game is running, will it count towards total playtime?

Not 100% sure but I’m extremely curious. Please try the following:

1) note your play time in one game.
2) start the game and click the home button (or switch the Switch to sleep)
3) go do something else for a bit and note about how much time you spent doing it.
4) open the game back up and exit properly.
5) compare your play time and see if it now includes the amount of time your switch was out of the game/sleeping.
6) report back here w/ the results.

Apologies, I wanted to try this but apparently the app isn't working on my Switch anymore. It doesn't display any of the games I play.

I'm on 15.0.1 | AMS 1.4.0|E

Hello.
How do I can migrate a statistic of all a played games from one to another console?
I have a backup SYSTEM.bin from donor (I sold console). I copied files (after signed by keys from second console):
8000000000000010
80000000000000f0
Now I see a total played time of each day/month/years but not of games (NXActivityLog does not show tittles). If I will install and run any game then I see a full statistic of it game.
Now I must install and run all games to I now restore all statistic, but I dont want (it's a long).
What do I can/must copied still that to have a statistic from previous console?
