Fortnite: Battle Royale has its eyes on more than just the usual trinity of platforms, as developer Epic Games have announced that they’ll be porting their full 100-player experience to iOS and Android mobile devices. Presumably with some kind of sorcery.

When Android launched in 2008, its already diverging flavours mostly shipped with a functional, but honestly terrible keyboard compared to the iPhone keyboard that shipped with Apples phones a year earlier. Swype came to the rescue! It's now been discontinued.

One of the things that made Blackberry devices so ubiquitous in what seems like an era gone by was that they could be used by enterprises without having to worry about fragmentation, patches and security. Yes, yes - the other thing was the cheap, perpetually available internet connection which made it so people could never get away from their damned emails and messaging. Google wants Androdi to be a suitable business choice.

HMD Global, the Finnish company that has the licence to make phones bearing the Nokia name has revealed its new, eagerly anticipated Nokia 8. It’s the first Android phone to have the Nokia branding, which is exciting stuff – but the phone itself is really just par for what you’d expect from a modern flagship.

Google’s taken many steps to ensure that malicious or spammy aps have been kept to a minimum, but they’re now going to focus their efforts on zapping poorly made, low-quality ones. By burying them.

While having a powerhouse flagship is a seller in its own right, the Essential is also banking on it being the absolute best photography machine that you can fit into your pocket. “When taking a still picture, Essential Phone activates both cameras at once. The monochrome and color images are then fused to create a final photograph with rich, deep clarity,” Essential’s imaging expert Yazhu Ling wrote in a blog post.

You can finally download the Nintendo Switch online multiplayer app. It’s useless right now, but available to download in anticipation of Splatoon 2.

Getting your Netflix fix on a rooted Android device? That may change soon, as the company has started cracking down on rooted devices.
