Thanks for your time, turns out it must be an issue with the cookies, since I fixed it twice by clearing data

good evening

I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with the touch controls in Fortnite on Xbox Cloud Gaming. There could be a few different issues causing this problem.

Make sure that touch controls are enabled in the game. In Fortnite, you can enable touch controls by going to the "Settings" menu, selecting "Controls," and then selecting "Touch." From here, you can customize the touch controls and make sure that they are enabled.

Check that touch controls are enabled in the Xbox Cloud Gaming app. To do this, go to the "Settings" menu in the app, select "Controls," and then make sure that "Touch" is selected as the control scheme.

Restart the Xbox Cloud Gaming app and try again. Sometimes, simply restarting the app can resolve issues with touch controls.

Check for updates to the Xbox Cloud Gaming app or Fortnite. Sometimes, updates can fix bugs or other issues that might be causing problems with touch controls. To check for updates, go to the "Settings" menu in the Xbox Cloud Gaming app, select "System," then "console info & updates," and then select "check for updates."

Check to make sure that you are using a device that is compatible with Xbox Cloud Gaming and that you have a strong and stable internet connection.

Make sure that you are signed in to your Microsoft account on both your mobile device and your Xbox console.

Try restarting both your mobile device and your Xbox console.

If you are using a third-party controller with your mobile device, try connecting it to your device and see if that resolves the issue.

If none of these steps are successful, you might need to uninstall and reinstall the Xbox Cloud Gaming app on your mobile device.

I think you misunderstood my issue. The cloud assumes that I'm using a controller, and changes the entire user interface where the buttons are at the top like on PC and Console, but on mobile, it should be at the bottom. I can navigate the interface with touch, but in an actual BR lobby, I am given no controls. This is extremely stupid, since another person could play just fine.

Keep in mind it's only a few games that support touch

Most games support controllers only

Fortnite isn't one of the games that support touch

It's unlikely a PvP shooter would support touch as it requires fast reaction and sensitivity you don't get with touch but with controllers

Most of the games are pve with the exception of rts games or gears 5

Fortnite does work with touch. It says “Play with Touch” in Xbox Cloud Gaming
