Alongside the 11.0.0 system update for Nintendo Switch, Tencent has finally released "Nintendo Switch Parental Controls" in the form of a Wechat Mini Program.

Not surprisingly, the widget does not work with Non-China Switch consoles, so I'm unable to provide further test results.
Features are described to be similar to the international standalone app equivalent.

This is not the first Wechat widget for Nintendo Switch consoles in China.
Tencent has previously released Mini Programs for both Jump Rope Challenge and Ring Fit Adventure.

According to @flamebeam0131 the layout is "Much more comfortable than Nintendo's own app".

It's Tencent's own streaming service (similar to YouTube/Netflix), but unlike the Switch release of YouTube, Tencent's video app is just an HTML5 browser.

Games with Title IDs unique to Hong Kong will also have their data missing from the cloud save page.
(Games that share the same Title ID with Hong Kong and any other eShop region are properly displayed).
