I am sorry, a lot of media coverage and DUMB people want to take Epic/Fortnite side. They think all Apple AND GOOGLE services for smarphones such as KEEPING A SECURE, VIRUS FREE, TERABIT/SEC SERVER IS FREE. Both companies spend Billions to develop a cell phone and a secure operating system. APPLE invests Billions to develop its chips, its OS, its security tech, its good user experience, while google just invest on the OS and doesn't even charge for the operating system, it's FREE. In contrast MICROSOFT charges you for a copy of windows. They offer developers and users a market, a pleasant and highly addictive and dependent environment for 3.2 BILLION PEOPLE, and developers find it abusive to pay to sell there? That is, with this tax (from the apps that charge, because the vast majority of apps are free) that google, apple, etc. maintain the services of maps, operating system, bluetooth, privacy and security on your smartphone, free 5-15Gb cloud services for you, and all the library of free apps, INCLUDING THE OPERATING SYSTEM AND THE APP STORE that you use AND ALL THE INVESTMENT IN TECHNOLOGY TO HAVE INNOVATION, AND PAY THOUSANDS OF CONNECTED, COOLED SERVER WITH TERABITS PER SECOND TO VC DOWNLOAD THE TIK TOK FAST, UPLOAD YOUR PHOTOS TO THE CLOUD, TYPE YOUR CONTACTS WITH THE CLOUD, advertising so people buy an apple/android phone, ETC.... DO YOU THINK THAT KEEPING A SERVER ONLINE with Terabit internet in every major country close to all users to download/upload fast IS CHEAP/FREE?????? No one bats an eye for government taxes. No one bats an eye for every 3.5% credit card companies charge every purchase from the store so you don't have to use cash. So let's be COMMUNISTS!  Let's END the apple / google tax and see how long you will last all the quality services included in your phone, free cloud, free operating system, free email app, web browser free, free calendar, free weather forecast, free NFC payment system, free maps, compass, notes, free configuration and guaranteed privacy, free encryption, free facetime. Or do you think that paying 300-1000 USD on a smartphone guarantees you years of free services until the phone dies? My iphone4S still works after 9 years.  IF YOU DON'T AGREE WITH THAT, BUY/DEVELOP YOUR APP ON A WINDOWS PHONE! OH, wait. that PHONE DIED because it wasn't a very good experience. Otherwise YOU WILL HAVE TO WATCH 4 ADVERTISING VIDEOS FOR EVERY 10 MINUTES OF USE OF THE MOBILE PHONE AND APPLICATIONS, OR SELL ALL  YOUR PERSONAL DATA, JUST LIKE YOUTUBE IS OBLIGATING US TO DO EVERY 10 MINUTES TO WATCH A YOUTUBE VIDEO, or facebook forces you to do.
