Cross progression hasn’t popped up 2025

I played on xbox back in 2023. I now am trying to play on PS5 in 2025. My EA account has the correct Xbox and PS5 accounts linked. When I started Apex on PS5 it just automatically logged me in with my PS5 account with no mention of cross-progression. 

Will this pop-up and progression carry-over still happen automatically? Do I need to wait for cross progression to pop up, and if so, how long should that take? 

This would be a total deal breaker to lose the progress and cosmetics I have on Xbox…

    Have you ever relinked any of your platform accounts?
    For example, if you relinked your Xbox account from one EA Account another one, it wouldn't have brought over any progression.
    So even if they are linked to the same EA Account now, wouldn't matter if they were linked to different ones before.

    Currently players will not get a pop-up anymore from what I know.
    With cross progression rolling out a while back, it merged the data between the platform accounts.
    If you currently don't have the progress merged together, then (from what I understand), you cannot have the progress merged anymore.

    Any newly connected platform accounts will have access to the progress that was made on the EA Account, but you can't merge the progress from 2 different accounts anymore.

    I haven’t ever unlinked/ relinked any accounts to my knowledge. Its still got my old pc account linked from over a decade ago too so I’m pretty certain its the only EA account I’ve had. 

    Maybe I’ll redownload on xbox and see if being active on that account more recently will get the cross-progression to register
