Nintendo recently launched a whole new app for iPhone. But what can you actually do with this Nintendo Today! App?
There is a new Nintendo app for your iPhone (and you can do this)
The new Nintendo app is for both Android and the iPhone and can now be downloaded for free. You do need a free Nintendo account to use the app.
The Nintendo Today! App is a kind of calendar on which you can read news from Nintendo every day. These are not only announcements of new games, but there is also fun facts about well-known Nintendo characters. You also indicate the desired Nintendo games yourself, so that you only get the news about the games you like.

Nintendo Today!: Can also be set as a widget
The nice thing is that the app can also be set as a widget, with which you can immediately view the news from the app on your home screen or home screen. You can choose from two different widgets: the calendar and a news overview. To set the Nintendo Today! App as a widget you follow the steps below.
Nintendo Today! Set up on the iPhone as a widget

- Tap at the top left for ‘Change’;
- Then choose ‘Add widget’;
- Select the Nintendo Today! Widget and choose ‘Add widget’;
- Choose ‘ready’.

Nintendo Direct
Nintendo has announced the new app during the Nintendo Direct. The Nintendo Direct is similar to an Apple keynote and is held once in a while. Nintendo explains, among other things, which games are coming and what news is planned.
The Nintendo Directs are not too often. And to keep their fans a little better informed, they have now released this app. Good to know: Nintendo will also use this app to share all the news from the Nintendo Switch 2.
