There is definitely no shortage of great 3D printed accessories for the Nintendo Switch, ranging from to adjustable Switch stands to steering wheels to fun mounts like a Joy-con can holder. If you want to see a fine selection, please check here.

The newest addition is a Joy-con grip that can fit your phone inside it.

So, why would you want to do that? The answer‘s easy. Nintendo offers a companion app, that you can use to chat with people. For example, Splatoon 2 teams use this companion app to communicate and plan their strategies – other games might also jump on that bandwagon.

The beauty of this 3D printed Joy-con grip for smartphones is that you don‘t need to drop the Joy-cons, pick up your phone, type, drop the phone and take back the Joy-cons. You simply switch the position of your fingers and start typing right away.

Currently, the contraptions fit the Samsung Galaxy S8+, iPhone X, iPhone 6, iPhone 6s, iPhone 7, iPhone 7+, Pixel 2 XL, Note 8, and Galaxy S8+. If your phone’s not mentioned, rest assured that there will be updated and models in no time by the Thingiverse community.

The Joy-con grip shouldn’t take longer than 10 hours to 3D print with a fine resolution on your printer.
