NookLink

NookLink as it appears in the Nintendo Switch Online mobile app on Android.

NookLink is a service in the Nintendo Switch Online mobile application that connects with Animal Crossing: New Horizons. To connect, the player must open the settings from the title screen of New Horizons and talk to Tom Nook. After this the player will be able to sync up various online services featured in the game.

Features[edit]

NookLink is divided into app-like sections, similar to the in-game NookPhone.

Passport[edit]

Shows the player's passport, as well as their custom design creator ID and the current residents of their island. Beginning in an update on July 30, 2020, the player's Dream Address, recent dreams, and total number of visitors to their dream are also shown. In an update on November 5, 2021, the player's Happy Home Network ID is also shown if the player has unlocked the ability to share vacation homes in Happy Home Paradise.

Designs[edit]

Allows the user to scan design QR codes created in Animal Crossing: New Leaf or Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer and import them into New Horizons.

Nook Points[edit]
