Nintendo announced it fixed an Android issue with the Nintendo Music app available on mobile devices, allowing more people access to its game songs. The update is live worldwide as of the evening of November 7, 2024. As such, anyone with an Android phone or tablet should be able to download, start, and use the app without issue.
The problem in question only affected the Android version of Nintendo Music, and it kept people who should be able to use the app from even starting it. Even though it would download and install properly, someone couldn’t actually even open it. Initially, Nintendo pinned the problem down to the SD card, and it recommended people check that to see if something was awry there. But now, people can get the 1.0.1 patch to remedy the problem. There are no patch notes for it, beyond Nintendo noting, “This issue was fixed in version 1.0.1, released on November 7th.”
As a reminder, all Nintendo Switch Online members can use the Nintendo Music app on their mobile devices if they subscribe to the service. You just log in, and then you can access a growing library of songs from first-party Nintendo games. While we can’t access all songs yet, more are being added at a regular pace. For example, Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy’s Kong Questappeared at the beginning of November 2024.
Nintendo Music is available on Android and Apple iOS devices.
