As of August 2024, you need to have iOS 17.6 installed on your device. To update your iPhone, go to <code>Settings &gt; General &gt; Software Update<\/code> and follow the prompts to download and install the latest iOS version[1][4].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, you need to install the Epic Games Store on your iPhone. This is necessary because Fortnite is no longer available through the Apple App Store due to previous restrictions. To install the Epic Games Store, visit the Epic Games website through your iPhone\u2019s browser and click on the download link for the Epic Games Store. Follow the on-screen instructions to begin the installation process[1][4].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After downloading the Epic Games Store, you will need to authorize the app. Go to your iPhone\u2019s <code>Settings<\/code> and look for a prompt asking you to \u201cAllow apps created by Epic Games Inc.\u201d Click on this and authorize the installation. If the store doesn\u2019t appear on your home screen immediately, return to your browser and repeat the steps until you see a prompt asking if you want to \u201cInstall the online marketplace.\u201d Confirm this, and the Epic Games Store will appear on your home screen[1][4].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the Epic Games Store is installed, open it from your home screen to start downloading Fortnite. You will see Fortnite, along with other games like Fall Guys and Rocket League, available for installation. Select Fortnite and follow the prompts to download and install the game. Note that the installation requires significant storage space, approximately 13 GB, so ensure your iPhone has enough storage capacity[1][4].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of system requirements, Fortnite can run on various iOS devices, including iPhone SE, 6S, 6S Plus, 7, 7 Plus, 8, 8 Plus, X, XS, XS Max, and XR. For iPads, compatible models include the iPad 7, iPad Mini 4, iPad Air 2, and iPad Pro (2017)[2].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Most Important Facts:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Update to iOS 17.6<\/strong>: Ensure your iPhone is running the latest version of iOS.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Install Epic Games Store<\/strong>: Download and install the Epic Games Store from the Epic Games website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Authorize the App<\/strong>: Allow apps created by Epic Games Inc. in your iPhone settings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Download Fortnite<\/strong>: Open the Epic Games Store and download Fortnite.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Storage Requirements<\/strong>: Ensure you have at least 13 GB of free storage space.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Compatible Devices<\/strong>: Fortnite can run on iPhone SE, 6S, 6S Plus, 7, 7 Plus, 8, 8 Plus, X, XS, XS Max, XR, and compatible iPad models.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Installation Process<\/strong>: Follow on-screen instructions to complete the installation, including authorizing the app and confirming the installation of the online marketplace.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re eager to get back into the action of Fortnite on your iPhone, here\u2019s what you need to know&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2771,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2839","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tips"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.9 -
