Animal Crossing New Horizons: How to Add the Custom Designs Portal to Your NookPhone
Save new designs from anywhere, at any time!
The latest update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons is here! It adds the ability for players to unlock 100 new design slots, customize new objects, and more. (Learn more about this update right here).
As part of the game’s March 2021 update, players can now add a link to the Custom Designs Portal to their NookPhone, which will allow them to browse and save player-created designs from anywhere, without being required to use the machine within the Able Sisters shop. This also means players can save designs even when the Able Sisters shop is closed!
Here’s how to add a link to the Custom Designs Portal to your NookPhone in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
Interact with the Nook Stop terminal in the Resident Services building.
Choose “Redeem Nook Miles.”
Highlight the “Custom Designs Portal” item and press “A” on your controller to select it. It costs 300 Nook Miles to purchase.
Select “Redeem” to finish your purchase.
Once you’ve purchased this item, the Custom Designs app on your NookPhone will automatically be updated with a link to the Custom Designs Portal.
When you want to access the Custom Designs Portal, just open the Custom Designs application and press “X.” From there, you can use the Custom Designs Portal like you normally would. Have fun!
