Parental Control Overview (InkyPen)

Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite, Nintendo Switch - OLED Model

Age restrictions for the InkyPen applications are set within your InkyPen account settings. They are independent from restrictions set on the Nintendo Switch 2 or Nintendo Switch console or in the Nintendo Account settings.

  • All InkyPen account holders are prompted to select an age rating when creating an InkyPen account.
  • The age rating can be adjusted at any time through the content filter in the InkyPen account settings. The InkyPen account password is required to change the age rating.
  • The age restriction applies to content within the InkyPen application only. It does not apply to other software or applications on the console.
  • Once an age rating is set, content will be restricted to that age for everyone that uses that InkyPen account. Content with a higher age rating will not appear in the InkyPen application.
  • If you are concerned about other players viewing inappropriate content, you can either log out of your InkyPen account or adjust the age rating appropriately before you close the application.
