EA app doesn't have an offline mode.

EA app doesn't have an offline mode. Every time it starts up it can't connect making playing single player games from the time the origin app was introduced to now impossible. Origin, steam and Gog don't have this issue why does EA app have it?

    @BarryBend9 Hi,

    The EA app does offer an offline mode, allowing you to play pre-installed games that support offline play, such as The Sims 4. However, you may need to have been connected to the servers and logged into the EA app at least once before accessing offline play. It's also recommended that you enable and keep the "Keep me signed in" feature active in the EA app to ensure your login details are saved, even when the app can't connect to the servers.
  • Is it truly offline then? I tried every method to play offline for the app and if I shut down my computer and start it up it requires me to be online just to put it in offline mode. What's the point of an offline mode if I need constant online connection to use. I'm trying to play my single player games and the app overrides my steam launcher to activate the app and due to no online connection shuts down the game startup. Do I even own my games anymore.
