If you are looking for secret Nintendo Switch tips. You can also use a built-in Nintendo Switch Browser. This does exist, but it cannot be used directly because it is a portable console and can be used for gaming.

People carry their smartphones in their bags and pockets, and Nintendo knows this. Moreover, the consoles used for gaming are not the perfect device when it comes to browsing the internet.

It is said that there will not be any built-in installed web browser on the gaming console or in the eShop. Instead, it can connect to a public hotspot like a hotel, airport, hostel, Starbucks, etc. It does not support modern web-based technologies like Flash and struggles with scripts, but it is worth it.

You can use the browser outside the typical hotspot method by tricking the console and adding a primary DNS address so the console will be deceived. The instructions for using the Nintendo browser depend on SwitchBru, a free hosted DNS server that changes your queries to Google public DNS servers. Your connection is encrypted according to the service.

But the user must keep in mind that you are being connected to a third party service. It is claimed by SwitchBru that it does not gather any information like your IP address and surfing habits, but a free service will be offered for you to store your favorite preferences and websites.
