Accessing the Nintendo Switch quick settings is really simple and can be done in a few steps.
How to Open the Quick Access Menu on Nintendo Switch
To open the quick access menu on Nintendo Switch, do the following:
Turn your Nintendo Switch console and ensure you are logged in. Press and hold the Home button down for at least a second. This should bring up the quick menu, where you can adjust the Screen Brightness and Volume and toggle Sleep Mode, Automatic Brightness, and Flight Mode On or Off.
To get out of the quick access menu, simply press B, tap on the home screen, or press the home button. These settings can be accessed at any time including when you’re on a game.
What’s the Point of the Nintendo Switch Quick Settings?
The point of the Switch’s quick settings menu is to provide you with a faster way of changing things like your screen brightness or volume without having to close an app and get back to the dashboard.
Unfortunately, you can’t change what is featured on the quick settings. If you need to do something like changing your Nintendo Switch theme or adjusting your notification settings you’ll have to go to the main system settings.
Use Your Switch Quick Settings to Modify on the Fly
You can use the Switch quick settings to modify various settings on the fly all without having to close the app you’re currently using.
The Switch makes it easy for you to customize the UI and choose the way you play, making it an impressive and customer-first console.
