This application has been obsoleted by one or more applications that serve the same purpose, but are more stable or maintained. |
A crude NTP client for the Switch.
It contacts a time server at http://ntp.org and sets the Nintendo Switch's clock appropriately.
User guide
Run the NRO from the hbmenu, or send it over nxlink. An internet connection is required for this application to work, but it does not contact Nintendo's servers, so it should be friendly in 90DNS and other Nintendo-blocked environments.
If "Synchronise Clock via Internet" (in System Settings > System > Date & Time) is enabled before launching this application, the time will automatically update correctly on the console's Home Screen.
If it is not enabled, the application will ask if you wish to enable it, and then reboot afterward to correct the time, or offer a way to exit without enabling internet time sync.
Changelog
1.0.4
- Attempt to fix the rare random hang when waiting for server response.
- Now displays error messages if you're not connected to the internet.
1.0.2
- Refactor printing.
- Ask user if they wish to enable internet time sync and reboot to fix the time if time sync isn't enabled, otherwise the time will automatically update correctly, even if Nintendo's servers are blocked.
- We still can't set the user clock directly, but this is as good as it gets for now.
