Hello again, recently launched a couple of more minor updates, the main new features are new simple themes that more follow the "iOS design" + the filters when browsing by Genre or Game mode were expanded to filter only games that offer demos.

## New simple themes
If you don't like the colorful themes, you can now choose much simpler "accent" themes that more follow the iOS system design.

This update also improves the onboarding experience, fixes couple of issues and makes it easier to change app icon.

3.16.12:
You can now easily find all available demos when browsing by Game mode or Genre with the extended filter options.

UI improvements and tweaks for the game detail screen.

Better indicator that something is a video in the Gallery instead of the play button that covered the thumbnail

There is also new Nintendo Direct coming up and you can follow it in the app thanks to the recent update: https://switchbuddy.app/events/344

Forgot to post about the most recent update, sorry about that :)

Version 3.7.0 adds more flexible "Favorites" organization with categories so you can more comprehensively track your games: Wishlist, Backlog, Playing, Finished and Abandoned.

Organize your Favorites​

You can now categorize saved games into Wishlist, Backlog, Playing, Finished & Abandoned to make it easier if you have many favorites. This is optional and if the new category doesn't have any game, it isn't displayed.

Favorite games directly from Search​

Quickly build your collection by adding games straight from the search results. No need to open the detail screen.

More game detail improvements​

The app now shows available DLCs for games on the detail page.

Redesigned News​

The improved News sections shows both articles and videos without the need to toggle between them. It also highlights Nintendo Directs and other events + current topics.

Improved Gallery​

When viewing your screenshots, the app shows the current game (if you named it) and number of total images + current position.

This update also includes bug fixes and other improvements.
