Okay, so the main reason you can’t play Fortnite on your iPhone has nothing to do with the game being broken, it’s because Apple blocked it again. Epic said, like just a few hours ago, that Fortnite is straight up 'offline' for every iPhone user everywhere—even on the Epic Games Store in Europe. Apple rejected the Fortnite app from the App Store, so until they fix their drama, nobody can log in or update on iPhone. It feels kinda unfair, honestly.

But if you’re playing on PC, Xbox, PlayStation, or even Android, you should be fine as long as the main Fortnite servers aren’t down for updates like today’s patch. I’ve got friends on iPhone who are super mad right now because the game legit just won’t open at all. If you’re on mobile and it’s not iPhone, like an Android, you can probably still play as long as you can update.

Basically: Fortnite servers are fine for everyone not on iOS, but iPhone users are totally blocked out until Apple and Epic quit fighting. Sucks, I know. Just gotta hang tight or use a different device if you can!
