A Nintendo Switch homebrew to fetch and extract the latest sigpatches.
Note: While this app will still work, it is recommended using AIO Switch Updater which adds QOL improvements such as not overwriting hekate_ipl etc.
Installation
This works for both Hekate and fusee-primary injection:
- Drop the sigpatches-installer directory from the releases in your /switch/ directory on your SD card.
- Launch the app through the homebrew menu and select the patches you want.

FAQ
Q. What are sigpatches?
Sigpatches allow your Switch to install and run unofficial NSP file (digital titles that appear on the home menu).
Note that you must use CFW to launch these applications even after installation as sigpatches are always required to do so.
Q. Which sigpatches should I chose?
If you're entering Atmosphere by injecting the "fusee-primary.bin" payload, download the appropriate sigpatches.
If you're using Hekatee and "fss0", get the Hekate sigpatches.
Q. Where do those sigpatches come from?
The sigpatches are, as of now, pulled directly from the GBAtemp threads. You can find the links the homebrew uses here. Because those links are updated with a cron job, the links might be down for a little bit right after new sigpatches are uploaded to GBAtemp.
If this persists and the links remain broken please open an issue and i'll investigate.
Q. Legality?
Please only use sigpatches to install backups of games you own, or homebrew applications you are allowed to install. This tool merely automates a process that is routinely done by thousands of Switch owners.
