All they really need to is make the app a bit more fleshed out and just install the damn thing on the Switch itself to run in the background.  I do not know why they are trying to over complicate something so simple.

Fortnite shows that you don't need any app to have voice chat in your games. Just need the software to have chat as a part of it . What you need for chat in that game is a headset, even nice usb headsets work fine my 7.1 set from the pc works perfectly

Yeah, Warframe is the same way.  The thing is, the Switch is  currently set up exactly how the PS3 was when it comes to voice chat.  The issue here is that MOST devs are used to the X1 and PS4 having native party chat and do not bother to add it to the game's software like that anymore.

Adding the Switch app to the Switch itself and polishing it up would be simple and something Nintendo could do their end without relying on the devs to hopefully add it in.
