TikToker Andrew Bond has shared a video of how to make your Joy-cons vibrate, so you can hear them as you try and find them. To active your Joy-Cons vibrate mode, all you have to do is unlock your Switch, head to the Controllers Menu at the bottom of the screen and then tap on the Find Controllers button. Once in the Find Controllers menu, just hold down the Joy-Con you're looking for on the screen, and you should be able to hear it or feel it vibrating.
Users over on Bond's TikTok are loving the hack, and the video has racked up a whopping 3.6 million views as well as thousands of comments. One user replied to the video, "That’s it… I’m connecting my controller to my keys," and another said, "Apple should take notes for Air Pods," which we definitely agree with.
We don't know about you, but this hack is going to save us a whole lot of time after a proper gaming sesh. If you're a Switch gamer and are looking to expand your library then check out our list of the best Nintendo Switch games or our favourite cozy Switch games.
