Solution 1: Restart your device:

Android / iOS:
Updating Fortnite Android or IOS can make
improvements that could
solve your problem because ddevelopers are giving
their best to deliver
a great experience to the users, which is why they are
constantly
working on improvements.
Solution 4: Force Fortnite Mobile for Android or
IOS to stop:
In general, you do not need to close applications.
Android automatically manages the memory used by applications.
Completely closing Fortnite, including the background
services that it can use may, in some situations, fix Fortnite Android not
working, the same goes for Fortnite iOS users.
Steps under Android os:
- Open the App
Settings on your device.
- Tap Apps &
notifications.
- Touch the app.
- Press force stop.
Solution 5: Free up
some space and memory:
You may
run into an issue if you do not have enough free space on your smartphone or
tablet. Do you have some apps you no longer use? If you do, uninstall them.
The size
of the RAM (random access memory) could be causing your device to stop working
and crash. When new features are added to Fortnite, this expands the size of
the game and makes it harder for it to run: so, free up RAM for Fortnite
mobile.
Close any other
apps that are running in the background of Fortnite.
Another
simple way to reclaim space to keep your device clean is with a CCleaner app.
Solution 6: Check Permissions:
Sometimes
when you don’t allow Fortnite Android some crucial permissions, it will
automatically crash or won’t work as it should.
I recommend you to allow the app to use your
Storage so the game can save your progress.
Steps on
Android:
Go to
Settings then Apps and Choose Fortnite then
tap Storage à Permissions
and Change the permissions.

running slow or freezing or crashing frequently. Once you delete the cache and

Steps
