I've been wanting to import a custom skin from my phone to my Nintendo switch for mine...

Hi there! This is Ronnie, an independent advisor.

Nice to meet you and I hope you are having a great day!

I understand you need help with transferring your Minecraft skin.

If this is a skin being imported to the game, you will have to transfer the file from your mobile phone to your switch. But that is if switch has the option to import files as well from other devices or other storage devices like USB flash drive.

If that is not available on switch, then it will not be possible to transfer this from your mobile phone to Switch unfortunately.

How do i download the files to my switch?

Hello Summer_417,

I'm Nilay and I'll be glad to answer your query today.

I am sorry but Nintendo Switch doesn’t allow importing custom files nor have APIs that would allow the game to access those files in the file system.

In order to get custom skins on your Nintendo Switch console, you will first need to export them from your computer to a USB drive.

Please refer to this https://howtonintendo.com/how-to-import-minecraft-skins-to-nintendo-switch/ link for further guide.

Recently my account was compromised and connected to a random nintendo switch. Now I have no clue as to how to unlink the nintendo switch from my account as the only forums I've seen about this situation if you have access to the nintendo switch. I dont have access to the switch so how do I unlink the account from my Microsoft one?

The problem with unlinking this is gonna be the fact that its your Microsoft account is linked to the switch account and not the other way around.

The linking process starts on Nintendo's end. Therefore unlinking it would also have to be done from Nintendo's end.

That being said, I regret to inform you, but it's not possible to import custom Minecraft skins on the Nintendo Switch version of this game. Actually, you can download the skins that are available only on the Minecraft Marketplace. Therefore, it's not possible to do what you're asking for.

I know this is not the answer you were expecting, but your kindness and understanding are appreciated.

Regards,
