    Support for Switch controller with Xbox App

    Hello, how are you? My name is Mateus. I'm an Independent Advisor and I'll be glad to help you today.

    On your question, unfortunately, it is not possible to use the Switch controller natively in the Xbox app on the PC, at the moment the app only supports official Microsoft controls. However there are third-party programs that allow the emulation of various controls for the application, I recommend that you do research on these programs.

    *But keep in mind that they are third-party programs, Microsoft cannot be held responsible for the malfunction of such application.

    Say XBOX SWITCH or double tap Xbox button on controller to switch focus between snapped apps.

    Controller Issue

    Switch Pro is not a supported controller. There is no information when or if more will be added

    Snap locations

    Yeah, Skype doesn't support being snapped to the right side of the screen just yet - FAQ on the app information page says it's being worked on for release in a future update. For those apps that do fully support the Snap feature - if you wanted to switch
    between the two, all you'd have to do is either say "Xbox, switch" or double tap the Xbox button on your controller.

    .

    If you want to know what applications can be snapped, go to "My Games & Apps", select the Snap app, and it should display any items that you're able to snap.
