When my Switch is docked and I'm playing online with the voice chat app, I would have a Bluetooth headset for my phone and the charger for my phone. That's all you'd really need. The dock stuff on the Switch would be hooked up anyway. If you want game audio through the headset, that's a whole different but optional thing.

That said, no one in their right mind would use this app as it is now anyway.

Hmm? When you say "the voice chat app", you either mean the Nintendo app, or Skype.

Assuming Nintendo's app: So when Switch is docked you don't need the connector?


Because according to the schematics your headphones are supposed to pug into that, and not into your phone.
So then why is it needed when Switch is undocked?

Assuming Skype: That still doesn't seem to explain your comment about how Nintendo's solution needs no more cables than what you are talking about. You only need 0-2 cables. The Switch app needs 3-5 cables.

Oh, I see what you mean. No, no. That abomination is a third-party thing by Hori so you can get the game audio through the headphones too. Which I don't care about. You can just use normal headphones on your phone for the voice chat audio Still, I'd never use Nintendo's app anyway if it doesn't let you lock your phone.
