Summary
If you wish to playtest your UEFN game by launching a session and having your mobile phone join as a second player, there is an issue where the phone player gets stuck in endless loading. The phone user has to close Fortnite on their phone, launch it again, join the party and join the session again, only then the phone player gets inside the game.
It’s an issue which kills work flow, because it takes multiple minutes to get a phone into a UEFN session to test a game mechanic out.
