the tabs and if you want to know how to install Fortnite this video will tell you how
but also if you have another Android phone when are you gonna get fortnight
and should you be installing those links which are floating around the internet?
today on Tech Tip Tuesday I'm gonna show you exactly what you need to know to
install Fortnite for Android right now let's do this.
hey welcome to another
tech tip Tuesday my name is Liron Segev where every Tuesday I share with you
tips and tricks making you more productive more efficient and getting
more out of your system! if that sounds cool to you smash that subscribe button
and let's get on to today's show.
so Fortnite is not going to be available
in a normal Google Play Store because well, I think Epic decided that they
don't want to pay the thirty percent fee to Google they figure they've got enough
of a worldwide fan base that wherever they put up their game people are just
gonna flock to that and they are right. so if you have an Android phone
that's not Samsung stick around but if you are as Samsung users let me quickly
show you how you can set up your game launcher right now and get you
downloading Fortnite
so on your Galaxy phone go into settings at the top and a
little bit further down you'll be able to see something called advanced
features tap on that when you do that on the next screen you'll see something
called games the top secret from the top click on that on your next screen
basically you have to enable the game launcher so set that to on mine's
already on just tap that and then you're good to go now go back to your phone's
main screen look for the game launcher set it up if it's the first time that
you're using it once you do that go into the top with a little magnifying glass
start searching for the word Fortnite obviously select the official one which
is the top one press the download button and fortnite is installing on your phone
or not...so you saw what happened in when actually install forth not on a galaxy
s6 which isn't one of the officially available phones well it gave me that
message basically means tough luck so what do you do if you're an Android user
and you really want to install Fortnite? what can you do to set up your
phone right now to get ready for when it comes and is officially released on your
phone well a couple of things so firstly you've got to go to the Fortnite
website and you go to register your intention tell them what kind of phone
you have and make sure you put it in the correct email address so that they are
able to send you a link when it's ready to go now what that means is they're
gonna send you an APK link which basically is a link to the file that we
need install that file that is how you get android apps onto your phone it's an
APK file but there is a problem because our phones are also set to only install
from the official Google Play Store and the reason for that is because with the
Google Play Store they look for viruses they look for malware things that can
steal your information all those things are in the apps they look for them first
they scan those Esper's and knows don't make it well by and large don't make it
to the store when you install an Android phone and an app file from anyway from a
link from anyway obviously the developer can put
absolutely anything into that file nobody is scanning that file and when he
gets onto your phone you don't know what it can do to your phone whether it can
siphen information etc so here's what you gotta do go into your Android
phone go down in two settings, thats the little gear icon we should know that by
now and what you looking for is aim option called lock screen and security
find that tap that on the next screen you're going to be looking for an option
called unknown sources and all you got to do is enable that but when you do you
will see this lovely message letting you know that you're exposing your phone to
problems so it seems like epic is aware that they are opening up their users to
some sort of vulnerabilities not necessarily obviously from them but just
leaving the phone open to accept apk installation or installation files from
non official sources is a danger I read an article on Engadget which hints
that the installation files are Fortnite will then at the end say can I
almost put you as the user back to the location where you can disable what
we've just done and go back to only accepting from the official sources so
that's quite smart of them I still think this whole process is a little bit
dangerous and sending a bit of a dangerous precedent if I don't know
what's gonna be into the future with other game makers are gonna do the same
whatever you do if you are gonna go this route to make sure that you disable this
non official sources so you don't get scammed by getting emails and updates
saying that this is an official update for fortnight and trying to con you into
installing something small from the official store
now that also brings up
another point how are they gonna do updates are they gonna be able to push
updates directly through the eff but you're gonna have to go back to the epic
game website and get updates pulled from there I don't know we have to see I
haven't got the app yet if you look on Reddit these lots and lots and lots of
links to apk and fortnight games for Android I don't trust any of them
because well okay I want to protect my phone so I'm gonna be patiently waiting
until it's become available for my device do you even thinking gaming is
actually a good idea on a mobile phone I've seen lots of opinions some say yes
some say absolutely not it's a horrible experience what are your thoughts let me
know in the comments below smash that subscribe button if you're
new here give the video a thumbs up really helps a lot and I'll see you guys
