How can I make the EA App launch library tab by default?

Hello,

In the old Origin app I could select the option to launch the Origin app Library by default. But here as you can see the Library tab does not open by default and there's no settings within the application.

Instead it is the Home tab with the store that launches in the background. I would like only the Library to open when launching the EA App like how it was before with Origin. Even Steam lets me open the Library by default.

Any help will be appreciated.

    Hmm, if you know the solution, why don't you just post it? You'll be helping everyone who will view this thread!

    I just reinstalled the EA app after over a year and noticed that nothing has changed. The app does not give any option to launch Library tab by default.

    3 years on but no update has been made to address this. I'm pretty certain that there must be some document /file somewhere in the config settings that can at least manually be changed so that it shows up the Library instead of the Store. It's probably a hidden config file somewhere. Someone should've been able to identify this after all this time.

    To be honest, the reason I don't just post it it because I don't want EA to patch out the method that I discovered. That being said, I run the risk of that happening if I share the info to anyone.

    I'm sure they already know, but if everyone is using it and it starts appearing all over the internet, it could prompt them to patch it out. Because EA is very anti-customer. Hopefully, the new incoming ownership will correct some of this. We'll see.

    It's 3 years later and this basic feature is still not present. Please re-engage with the app team.
