Use a different app
Don't buy games from EA, Its not worth it. The Launcher is clunky and breaks all the time. It requires constant fixing and updates every other time you open and it doesn't have a real offline mode so you have to be connected to the internet and deal with the updates to play. It is just not worth the time and effort. If you can buy the game from a different place, even if its a bit more expensive, just do it.
Linux Compatibility, Please
Please, do one of the following: Provide a Linux compatible E.A. App and installation or Modify your Windows E.A. App so when it updates it does not fail in Linux Steam (and similar) environments I can work around the issues, but will purchase no further E.A. products until this is sorted out. Linux is an order of magnitude more common now that it was even a year ago, so please don't continue to ignore it. Thank you for your consideration.
Forced Updates on EA APP
Hello. In anticipation of the recent update (27th October) I did as I always do and put the EA app offline so I can continue to play without updating. Today, Thursday 29th, the EA App prompts me with 'you have been offline for too long.' After 3 days, really?! It forces me back online and the game automatically starts to update even though I have my settings configured to not auto-update games. This is a problem for several reasons: Your updates have a long track record of being buggy and unstable, so I wait until others have confirmed on these forums and other socials that they’re safe before installing them. That is a perfectly reasonable thing to do on my own computer. I should also not have to be connected to the internet to play a single-player game that I paid for. Automatic updates are disabled in my settings but the app ignored it. Forcing me online on a short timer and then shoving an update through anyway is completely unacceptable and intrusive. Please clarify, so this problem can be prevented in future: What is the actual offline time limit, and is it documented anywhere? If not, why not? We as consumers have a right to know when you are going to limit access to our paid content. Why does going online trigger an update when automatic updates are disabled? Thank you.
Switch 2 Pro Controller Support.
Now that the Switch 2 is getting more support from EA, it would be nice if the EA App would get some sort of native support for the Switch 2 Pro Controller same as Steam has. This would be great since there are people like me that want to use a controller to play games, but do not have an XBox or a DualShock/DualSense and instead have a Switch Pro Controller. At this time the only options are either to get a 8BitDo USB Wireless Adapter 2, install BetterJoy or attempt to wrap the EA app with Steam by adding it as a non-Steam game, however even with this the EA App overlay can aggressively block or cause issues with the inputs of the Pro Controller.Age verification for the EA app
I would REALLY LIKE EA TO START AGE VERIFICATION FOR ALL GAMES!!!! I am (and a LOt of other people) are sick of getting kick/banned for saying or typing cuss words that ARE PART OF THE GAME!!!!!! IE:BF6: EVEN THE AUDIO "MEDIC!! I NEED A F*****G MEDIC!!" Is PART of the GAME!!!!! This IS a M for Mature 17+ by the ESRB rated game that is being played by young minors who SHOULD NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THIS GAME!!!! IF YOU ARE NOT 17YRS OLD OR OLDER, YOU SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO LOAD THE GAME AT ALL!!!! Facebook/Meta/tictok are ALL being (now) required to do age verification for their accounts, EA SHOULD BE LEGALLY REQUIRED TO DO THE SAME THING AND AGE VERIFY ALL EA ACCOUNT HOLDERS AND ENFORCE KICK/BANS ON PLAYERS UNDER 17YRS OLD. STOP ALLOWING MINORS TO PLAY MATURE GAMES, AND LET US ADULTS HAVE ADULT CONVERSATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EA app Library Customization & Favorites Feature Request
I would love to see more customization options added to the EA app game library. One feature I would especially like to see is the ability to favorite games. Favorite games could appear in a dedicated “Favorites” section or automatically be displayed at the top of the library, making it much easier to quickly access the games we play most often. It would also be great to have additional library customization options, such as: Adding games to Favorites Displaying favorite games at the top Manually organizing games in a preferred order Creating custom categories such as “Favorites,” “Recently Played,” and “Installed” Hiding games that we are not interested in seeing Choosing how games are sorted and displayed in the library The EA app already has a large game library, so these features would make it much easier for users to organize and personalize their experience. These may seem like simple features, but they could make the EA app feel much more personal and user-friendly. I hope EA considers adding more library customization options in a future update. Thank you!💙
EA App needs a User quality of life update.
I'll start by saying I've been using EA's digital platform from the very beginning, Using EA Download manager and EA Downloader in the very Early days. I was an EA insider for a number of years (and a number of community managers ago) who helped with feedback and testing of the Origin app. I have also been an early adopter of the new EA app. That being said, I can no longer ignore little issues that are not being addressed. I like the app overall and think fixing these things will help to make it the best EA app possible. More User options needed for organization and layout. I will give the most noticeable example. This is an eye sore and I hate looking at it when browsing my library. In past apps I could delete or remove them, hide them, or organize them into a folder that I could close and never look at. In the current app, I can't do any of that. Assuming the game data was being pulled from steam, I figured I'd delete it there, but that is also not an option. Notice there is no option to remove the Battlefield 6 Beta. I'm sure I can go through support perhaps, either through EA or Steam or both to have this removed and cleaned up, maybe, But I don't want to waste my time dealing with it and I shouldn't have to. Box Art options needed as well Also, why can users not edit their box art? Past apps allowed us to, and so do several competitors apps. Some might think the feature is nice but unnecessary, and I could see that point of view. I wouldn't have a problem with that so long as all available Box Art was updated and worked well. This example shows the one I have In my library that shows this isn't the case. Again, I have no option to hide or edit the Pinnacle station dlc and it just looks bad. Friends list's Needs updates to how it gathers and displays friend data For some unknown reason, I have several friends who's name is listed as a number. If I click on the name to open the next screen, it will show the user name below the number as shown here: Why can't that just be the populated name in the friends list? Where is this number coming from and why is it being shown over the user name that the friend listing was made from? These are just a few things I've been looking at for some time that I have been hoping would be fixed but they have not been since launch of the new app. I realize I have a larger EA library than most and many people may never see these issues but that doesn't mean they don't exist. Please make a pass on the current build and address these issue. Cleaning up the usability of the app on the user side would make things so much better as we could fix these issue on our own if you gave us the ability to. Having the ability to delete/remove or edit items in the library, to include box art, would have allowed me to fix most of these issue myself.
Feature Request: "Download All DLCs" button for EA App
Hello. Please add a "Download All" or "Select All" button for game add-ons and DLCs in the EA App. Currently, players have to click on each expansion individually to start the download, which is extremely frustrating and time-consuming when you own dozens of DLCs (for example, in The Sims 4). This is a basic quality-of-life feature that steam and other launchers already have. Please consider adding it in the next updates. Thank you.
