Fortnite: Battle Royale Dev Tracker

We’ll be releasing a client update tomorrow, April 19 at 6AM ET(1000 UTC) to resolve some issues that started occurring in patch v8.40. No downtime is required. This patch will include a fix for the following issue:
NOTE: We are working with Apple on certification of the iOS update, players on iOS can continue to play and we will let you know when the update is available.
I wonder what's happening in Epic HQ right now.
Epic: Hey Apple, can you approve this patch?
Apple: Not until you fix the letterboxing that's already overdue. We just approved one for you yesterday.
Epic: cmon please.
This has nothing to due with our certification process. We have a valid extension that Apple has provided to developers. Apple has a certification policy that allows them up to a 48 hours process.
