Many third-party controllers act the same as Switch Pro Controllers in regards to connecting them to your Nintendo Switch wirelessly. However, sometimes third-party controllers have different buttons.

• For example, the “Sync” button and the “Home” button may be combined into a single button unique to that third-party controller.
• Go into the Controllers menu at the bottom of your Nintendo Switch’s screen (the icon has an image of a Joy-Con controller).
• Next, select “Change Grip/Order”. At this point, you need to press and hold (long-press) the “Sync” button to connect your Controller to your Nintendo Switch.

With that said, some third-party controllers cannot use a USB-C charging cable to connect to your Nintendo Switch. We tested the Sefitopher Wireless Pro Controller (pictured above) and it could not connect to our Nintendo Switch with a USB-C charging cable – despite charging the controller’s battery.
