How to Connect JoyCon Controllers to Anki for Medical School (MacOS)

Go to the App Store and download the free app JoyKeyMapper and open the application (Figure 1).
Go to System preferences > Bluetooth
To make your JoyCon discoverable, press and hold the sync button on your JoyCon until the 4 lights begin flashing.
Once discoverable, click ‘Connect’
I personally like to rename the JoyCon based on the color because I have two different pairs that I alternate between. To rename, right click on “Joy-Con ([L/R])” and select ‘Rename’
From JoyKeyMapper settings select the connected JoyCon
Click the + icon in the bottom left and add Anki to the Apps list
Select Anki
Left click on each JoyCon button within JoyKeyMapper and assign a command to each. I’ve included a screenshot of my settings below (Figure 2) as well as a table to show what each command does (Table 1).
Start using Anki!

Use the addon Customize Keyboard Shortcuts to change any shortcut, if needed.
If you want, you can also connect the second JoyCon and assign even more commands.
When it’s time to charge you can reconnect them to the Switch and leave it docked.
If you reattach your controller to the Switch, then you’ll have to manually reconnect it to your computer through bluetooth preferences. Your settings in JoyKeyMapper will be saved.
