i did not expect the 'send to mobile device' option on the switch to work like that (or not work, rather, since it doesnt)

i was like. oh i bet itll send it to the app over the internet i just need to install that and sign in

NOPE

@noiob in my case it just didnt work after i connected to the wifi, the page wouldnt load

@pup_hime you gotta turn off mobile data because Android detects that there's no internet connection

@noiob with all this information i think im just gonna suffer through typing the posts out on the switch

@pup_hime the app simplifies it down to just scanning the first QR code

fwiw the Switch supports USB keyboards

@pup_hime nah it uses an api for connecting to an ad-hoc network so it doesn't need to

@noiob nvm it only worked the first time now its broken

@pup_hime yeah I think that's an Android issue they can't work around

@pup_hime sometimes it keeps working sometimes it doesn't
