Is it possible to tell them to bring it back by any chance???

Apple and Epic the developers of Fortnite are currently in the middle of a legal battle. Fortnite was removed from the store for violating Apple’s terms of service.


Until that lawsuit is resolved, Fortnite will not return the game to the App Store, and Apple will not allow them to put it back.


You can't just ask Apple to ignore the violations by Epic and put it back.

No. This is a user to user forum, not Apple, we have no control over what is in. the App store. .Apple and Epic the developers of Fortnite are currently in the middle of a legal battle. Fortnite was removed from the store for violating Apple’s terms of service.

Me too I will also stop using apple products if you don’t add fortnite to iPad

Go right ahead. Unless you've been living under a rock you should know that Apple and Epic (the maker of Fortnite) are embroiled in a nasty lawsuit that could take years to resolve. So Fortnite will not be coming back to the iPhone or iPad any time soon. So you go right ahead and pay hundreds of dollars for another brand of phone just so you can play Fortnite.

You know, of course, that Google also pulled Fortnite from their Google Play Store for the same reason Apple did. Epic wants to bypass both store’s commission policies. You should know, of course, that there is a lawsuit going on between Epic, Apple, and Google, and that Fortnite will not be available on iOS for years to come unless Epic agrees to play by the rules.


So your beef is with Epic Games CEO, one Tim Sweeny. He could end this and Fortnite could return to both stores. But Mr. Sweeney is bent on pursuing this lawsuit so you can forget about Fortnite, period.

Complain to Tim Sweeney, CEO of Epic Games. He is the one who started this impasse. Email him and ask him to get Fortnite back in the App Store. He has the power to do so by simply following the rules, dropping his lawsuit, and Fornite is back.


So are you going to do that?
