this page has every mobile bug and suggestion. you wasted your time making this list
https://trello.com/b/Xi7qg2fL/fortnite-mobile
and 5.41 isn’t a major update like 5.5/ 6.0 there’s no chance in this happening tomorrow
Seriously Epic you need to start testing these updates on iOS devices before releasing them. Get some student who play the game anyway and pay them to test the game for a couple of hours on your new versions, it's not that hard. And if that guy already exists, fire him and get a new one. This is simply unacceptable.
Btw how come you now archived a bug that should be an absolute #1 priority to get fixed (https://trello.com/c/pYlXbpc4/267-interaction-bug-periodically-prevents-ios-players-from-picking-up-items)? You know that this bug means it's for months now not possible to reliably open chests, pickup items or edit building in this game yes? How can this still be a thing?
Also if you sell skins either directly or as part of the battle pass, shouldn't you at least make them look normal? The enforcer skin still is crazily broken on mobile with this 5.4 update. Is this really nothing to care about for you? People paid you money for this
When I checked the APK info, it targeted API 21 (Android 5) which doesn’t make sense why would would do it because there are no devices that support Fortnite run on Android 5, tho this could have been done to bypass the permission system introduced in Android 6. The fact it targets Android 5 can actually hold Epic back from making optimizations and adding new features.
If the game targeted Android 7 or later, the game would be making use of Vulkan, which from what I’ve heard made the game run like an iPhone and it doesn’t even make your phone very hot. Of course you would need a compatible device, or it will fallback to OpenGL, which runs the game like crap.
Here is the app I used to figure this out btw https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wt.apkinfo&hl=en_US&gl=US
This is the model on Amazon:

This is one on Costco but I think you have to login?
I got a 64gb 10 in version at my Costco for $40 less.

I'm gonna buy this and play 30 fps until everything is settled.
Hey Febstarson, while your device is a recent release it has the GPU Adreno 509 chip. The requirements for Fortnite should be an Adreno 540
You can check out your phones specs here https://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_6_2-9834.php
I cannot install Fortnite on my device. Although my device is not on the list, it does meet the minimum requirements, yet when I install it it says it cannot be installed. I am using Android 8.2, and it says that Android 8.0 onwards is supported yet I get the error message: Android 8.0 or higher 64 bit
Here is the model of my phone: https://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_y7_(2019)-9625.php (Y7 2019)
This is a new phone, so I have not previously installed it on this device.
Here is how to. I did it back in November. As long as you frequently plugged in your device on your PC/Mac you should still have an old ios 12 back up on it so you don‘t lose all your data.
...as you can see here on their trello...but the bug still in the game in version 5.4. Megalol?
in fact, it looks like they stopped even working on it. On their trello page, it was moved from "investigating" to "Archived" as of August 30. Here is the link
Here is one from a so called Fortnite Summit how they explain how the optimized and trying to get Unreal Engine or Fortnite on Mobile Devices. Fortnite Summit
For the Unreal Engine Release info is a long Read and list so be warned. Unreal Engine Release Info
The game does download all assets from the internet (on first boot!!), if that's what you mean. But I'm guessing that's not what you mean.
The game requires a persistent internet connection for a few reasons. A) to retrieve account information in a secure way to prevent cheating. B) because it's an online game.
In terms of rendering a game in real time, the only use for the internet is to ask the server for positions and actions going on around you, and where you are supposed to be. This is why it's possible to play an online game with a limited data cap. It's not streaming anything from a server anywhere, it's loading textures that it's downloaded earlier from disk (local storage).
I'd like to know your sources for this info on the game "loading up graphics from the internet". Let me remind you a typical 2k texture is around 10mb. There are hundreds the game has to load. Ram usage on the engine alone is around 300mb. On a PC with 16gb ram, the game will happily eat up 5 - 6 gb. Do you really expect people who have shitty internet connections (I have 1 Mbps down, 0.5 Mbps up: https://www.speedtest.net/result/9042926747 ) to be able to redownload the whole fucking game every time they play?

<strong>From Epic themselves :</strong>
> Fortnite has served as a development sandbox for UE4, and by bringing the game to mobile devices, new Unreal Engine features and improvements will make bringing the full experience of PC and console to mobile games easier than ever before.
There’s an entire talk from the devs on it if you’re interested in the details.
I dont have any issue with the mobile devs specifically, they do alright considering the limitations of mobile ports. The game’s design and the technical teams that have pushed increasingly awful patches, that’s who I dislike.
I can give you the link okay and here is a step by step guide:
Log in
Press your username
Press account or whatever it says
Press the pencil next to your username
Type your new username
Tick the box
Press confirm
It takes like a minute and a half if you know what you wanna change it too
won't optimize? true. few models with that chip? hell no. just check this list for you to make yourself an idea
I mean, consider this: The only other game that's comparable to Fortnite in terms of heaviness, visual fidelity, and crossplay compatibility is Genshin Impact. It is made using the (far superior for mobile games) Unity Engine, and while it runs better on more devices, it still makes some devices choke and chug.
Most Xiaomi and Samsung phones you'd think would be able to run GI on 60+FPS struggle to maintain constant 60FPS without overheating and are happiest at just 30FPS. Same deal with Fortnite; only OnePlus phones can run Fortnite at a comfortable 60 or 90FPS rate, but OnePlus is pretty much being killed off anyway, so we may not have any other platform to run the game well left.
More to the point, the ONLY FEASIBLE WAY for Fortnite to run better on phones is to completely break it off from the PC-Switch-PS5 version and make a standalone "mobile-only" mode like what EA did with the phone port of Apex Legends to make a lighter, faster, tighter version. But how would the community handle not being able to access everything they bought or games and maps that are only playable on the full fat version of the game?
I use an app called jOnePlus Tools which lets me set my screen to run at 60 or 90Hz at all times (it normally goes down to 60Hz for video apps and "unoptimized" games).
Something odd with OnePlus I observed, is that when I set the screen to run at 60Hz only, Fortnite will only go up to 65-66FOS, but when I force the screen to run at 90Hz at all times, that's when the frames spike up to about 90 or even 100.
I’m no lawyer, but even if Epic didn’t introduce direct payments, Apple would have still removed them from the App Store the moment Epic went to the Courts. They like punishing “rebels” or apps that generate “controversy” that doesn’t favor Apple (just look at what they did to ProtonVPN with lots of reporters covering Myanmar were using).
I just bought a couple mobile triggers off of Amazon for about $7. They make a huge difference if you’re playing on a mobile phone (iPad you’re probably better off playing claw). here’s the amazon link of the ones I just bought.. I can’t speak to the durability but after a week so far so good.
Geforce Now is on mobile with a free 3 month trial, then its $5 a Month. Plus it works on mobile data. Just have to turn the streaming quality down to 720p.
Or you can join the Xcloud beta, which is free for now and doesn't require more than a Microsoft account and a controller. You don't even need a console to do just the streaming service.
Either way it can be ran on mobile without using the mobile version.
This is all four android btw. I know nothing about the availability of these on iOS.
Geforce Now: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nvidia.geforcenow
Xcloud: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.xcloud
With Xcloud you have to sign up for the beta. Just Google "Join Xcloud beta" to find where you can sign up and create a Microsoft account if you need one. The beta invite takes a day or two for the 3 times I've helped others get it set up.
This is definitely push notifications from another APP or even possibly your browser on your phone.

If it is unable to find anything, and you're also unable to find anything - you might want to reset your device.
No problem. Here's the one I use. I bought it in April. May be better choices available by now but mine works fine. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XKRGQQ2/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_api_i_slHyFb6MESWEE
Season x was my favorite but I think chapter 2 is when it went downhill after so long of no content updates then season 2 was so fun but then again no content updates season 3 I loved but like the last few weeks I was done with it and now I’m stuck in it for a while probably but I also got a galaxy note iPad and it comes in a week I’m so excited I reccomend it to you it’s a decent price https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-10-1-Tablet-Black/dp/B07Q3T1YJS

I have a question though do you need to have the fan plugged in for it to work or can I use it wirelessly? also is this the one you mentioned?
I'm using my main phone (Galaxy S10+) to record and its attached to this product on Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07PLF1KMB/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apa_i_CxqIEbAC0M7QR The camera just floats right over my hands, it's very convenient !
Here’s a link for the product on Amazon.
It’s called the Flydigi Wasp Wing. I’ve been using it for about 3-months and it does a great job. I can’t vouch for hour reliable it is long-term.
You can get it for free here - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.EndlessCode.TheEnd
Took me 5 hours to recreate everything from scratch :)
Since we got left out here yah go - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.EndlessCode.TheEnd

I was wondering if this counts as cheating since I don't use any crosshair from the game? I use it to see more when shooting over long distances. In case you guys wanna try it that's the app I use. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.acc.gp.crosshair
It’s not even remotely permanent, you just need a proper microfiber cloth to clean this or better yet use this, guaranteed to be gone in one swipe
Probably not a bad idea actually.
I've just bought a metal mesh stand for the iPad that holds it up at a good angle and keeps the back open for ventilation. I'll report back once it arrives and I can try it out. Got to be better than resting it on a cushion where it gets all hot.
This was what I bought: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B076VBHYKW/
