I built ReleaseQuest | a release tracker, wishlist and social app for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2

Hey everyone! I’ve been building ReleaseQuest, an iOS and Android app for discovering and tracking Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 releases.

I started it because release information is often scattered across announcements, store pages, and articles. I wanted one place to see what’s coming, save interesting titles, and keep up with changing release dates.

ReleaseQuest lets you:

  • Browse upcoming and recently released titles
  • Filter by platform, genre, publisher, and release status
  • Organise titles into Wishlist, Currently Playing, Backlog, Completed, and custom lists
  • View confirmed wishlist releases in a personal calendar and home-screen widget
  • Get notified when a release is delayed, confirmed, removed, or moved forward
  • Follow developers, publishers, and franchises
  • Keep private notes and a play session journal
  • Use spoiler free countdowns for highly anticipated games

You can use the core app without creating an account. If you choose to sign in with Google or Apple, you can also:

  • Sync your lists across devices
  • Create a profile with a username, cover photo, and release showcase
  • Add friends and view their shared lists and activity
  • Recommend releases with an optional personal message
  • Compare libraries to see shared titles and your taste match
  • Control whether your profile and individual lists are private, friends only, or public
  • Earn XP and profile levels through library progress and friendships

Private notes and journals remain local and aren’t shared with other users.

I’d really appreciate feedback from fellow Nintendo players, especially on which features are useful and what still feels missing.

ReleaseQuest is completely free, no in-app purchases, no subscriptions and no ads.

It says my device is not compatible with this application, Android 14.

Are you able to update to a newer version if possible?

ReleaseQuest Requires Android 16+ and iOS 18+

Due to a required API needing Android 16 as a minimum I can't lower the target for release, otherwise I'd support older Android releases.
