v3.0.0 — UI rewrite onto borealis (Horizon-system-style graphical UI).

Same features as v2.x — every action and flow maps one-to-one to the v2 menus, verified on real hardware (fw 22.1.0 / Atmosphère 1.11.1).

What's new

  • Main menu and sub-menus rendered via borealis (Apache-2.0): rounded cards, focus animations, native footer button hints, auto dark/light theme.
  • Hbmenu launcher label and in-app title are now "Pctl Manager" (the repo / package name NX-Pctl-Manager is unchanged).

What's unchanged

  • All pctl actions: set / change PIN, delete all parental controls, unlink companion app, and the play-timer flows (daily limit, per-day staging + Save, remove play-time limit) — including the write-before-temporary-unlock gate that turns parental controls off briefly when the timer is active.
  • Tested on firmware 22.1.0 / Atmosphère 1.11.1.

Size

.nro grew from 265 KB → ~8.2 MB (borealis library + Material icon font + built-in widget resources).

See CHANGELOG.md for the full breakdown.

Install

Drop nx_pctl_manager.nro into /switch/ on the SD card and launch it from hbmenu. Or download nx_pctl_manager.zip and unzip it onto the SD card root (it places the .nro into /switch/ for you).

NX-Pctl-Manager v2.0.0

Offline Nintendo Switch parental-controls tool — set the daily play-time limit, change / delete the PIN, unlink the companion app, and view status, all directly on the console. Requires CFW (Atmosphère recommended). It doesn't bypass any account or online check; it just brings the parental-controls settings that are otherwise buried in the phone app onto the console, offline.

Verified on fw 22.1.0 / Atmosphère 1.11.1.

Install

Drop nx_pctl_manager.nro into /switch/ on the SD card and launch it from hbmenu. (Or unzip nx_pctl_manager.zip straight onto the SD card root — same thing.)
