Despite being invisible in EA desktop app, people still see me online in Apex

Question

Pretty sure this worked with origin, where if I set my status to invisible, it would show me as invisible in game as well. However with the EA app this doesn't work. I set myself to invisible and still get invites from people who see me online in game. Any way to appear offline in game?

Not sure if you've seen this David, but it seems like this issue is getting a bit more attention on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/12vr0mu/appear_offline_lol/

Manifesting like this:

I'm sure there might be some variations, though I think this would also help.

@RainyAnt That's interesting, I just tested locally and I was correctly uninvitable on 2 accounts.

Hopefully we can figure out why you aren't properly offline on yours.
Can I check if the people inviting reaching out to you are console players, or PC, or both?

If you haven't done so recently, can you try power cycling your router? Perhaps there's something going on with the router cache and the token that says "show me offline" isn't being properly delivered.
