      Of Fortnite-compatible devices, we think Android Oreo is around 35% and growing. All of these security concerns highlight the importance of OS updates. This is something Microsoft and Apple do very well, and Google/manufacturers/carriers should do better.

      35% is a shit sample, you are being disingenuous. I hope to similar energy directed at iOS next...

      If Google would decouple their Android virus scanner from Google Play, then all APKs distributed everywhere could be signed by it and have equal security. It’s as simple as that! Problem is, they bundle that vital security feature with with their store and 30% tax.

      How do you expect android to develop , test, do research, provide security, and staff if they cannot collect a fee or license due to the popularity of their platform. You built a shooting game, and you want to expand your user base or adoption time, you’re not curing cancer bro.

      Good question! Google is the #5 most profitable company in the world. In my rough estimate, Google search revenue from Android users exceeds Google’s cost of developing Android by at least a factor of 20. I’d greatly appreciate any more refined estimate of this.

      Of course! Our code safety practices with Fortnite and with Unreal Engine in general are far beyond those of most apps in these stores, and Fortnite already goes through the far more stringent PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo certification practices on console.

          There's already phishing sites up , better be on your horse doing your due diligence. They will probably Blake Android for the issue you'll create. It's not just malware but identity theft.

          Obviously * blame Android. You could have saved the resources on the free advertising just using play. Oh nevermind I doubt you care about the app phishing sites popping up. Not your problem.
