Great little product!
I bought this due to wanting to use my wireless Bluetooth headphones with my switch. I absolutely love this product! It has an easy set up and easy to follow instructions to set up. I didn't expect it to come with other little add ons like the microphone. I still haven't had a chance figure out what the other little add on is. I think it's to hook into the docking system. The only thing I couldn't figure out was the website to look at my order after it was placed. Product was A+ and exceeded expectations.

Working fine so far
It worked for all of our different AirPod models (Regular, Pro and Max) so we're happy. Haven't really had any disconnection issues, volume issues or anything to be troubled about yet. Hope it stays that way!

Amazing but...
I love it, my only issue is that it doesn't work with the one headphones I bought it for. My Galaxy Buds+ might be the issue but idk. It works perfectly with my cheap Bluetooth headphones though which is great.

More questions? We’ve got them covered.
Will Genki Audio affect the battery life of my Nintendo Switch?
Genki Audio only uses 0.02 watts, taking up less than 1% of the Switch’s battery life and in fact uses less power than if you were to use the built-in speakers.
Can this be used when docked?
Yes, this package comes included with a dock adapter that allows you to use Genki Audio with the USB ports found on the Covert Dock or original dock.
Does this work with the Nintendo Switch Lite?
Yes, absolutely!
Can I use Genki Audio on other non-Nintendo Switch devices?
Genki Audio will work with any device that supports USB audio, this includes the PS4, MacBooks, iPad Pros, most PCs and Android devices. The XBox One and Oculus Quest do not currently support USB audio.
Why would I use Genki Audio on other devices?
Genki brings audio sharing across two bluetooth headphones so it can be convenient when watching a movie with someone on a plane for example. It also brings lower latency for gaming if you have an aptX compatible headphones or speakers.
Does the passthrough charging support PD (power delivery) charging?
The passthrough USB-C port is fully PD compliant and allows you to charge the Switch at its full 18 watt max input as if it were charging directly through the console’s port.
Will this work with Nintendo Switch covers, grips, or cases?
While it will work with some enclosures such as the Satisfye grip, there are many cases that need a slight modification. Mostly it’s due to the bottom of the case being too thick and/or not being cut wide enough. You can simply cut out a wider opening and this actually fits snugger. We used to make extended versions but we found this to be overly complicated and that modifying the case has been a more reliable solution.
Why does my Genki Audio briefly disconnect when I plug it in to charge?
When a power source is detected, Genki Audio immediately swaps its power source from the Switch to the external power and is for that split second unpowered. Since there is no battery to have to charge, it will disconnect briefly.
