Fortnite has had a mixed last two years. In 2018, the game garnered its highest-ever yearly revenue of $2.4 billion. The same year, the mobile version of the game was released, which created quite some buzz. This despite stiff competition from the likes of PUBG Mobile and Garena Free Fire. Since then, however, the game has seen a bit of stagnation.

What sets Fortnite Mobile apart from its competitors, including COD Mobile, is that players can access the same account from other devices. Meaning that if you have to travel for a few days and cannot log in to your Fortnite account on your primary device, you can always do the same on your mobile.

Of course, if you are only starting to play Fortnite on a smartphone, then you need to learn how to change controls and other game settings, to have a satisfactory experience. And this is what we look at in this article.
