Can't find your device? Check a little further down for Epic's recommended specs a device should have before trying to play Fortnite:

Still No Google Play? 

By downloading the installer from the Epic Games mobile site, users are bypassing the Google Play store. You'll first need to allow your device to download unkown apps before the installer will work. This can be done by accessing the "Settings" of your device, then navigating to "Install Unknown Apps" or something along those lines. While eing a little confusing for some players, there is a legitimate business reason for Fortnite eschewing the Google Play Store. It's because, according to Google Play's own Terms, the tech giant keeps 30 percent of an app's generated revenue at first. This number decreases over time, but with the amount of money Fortnite generates, this would be a huge loss for Epic Games to deal with. At least for the time being, this is the only way to get Fortnite on your Android device, so do not trust any Google Play apps that claim to be Fortnite. They're imposters.
