I have The Sims 4 in my account and my girlfriend play in my account, but i want to play TS4 and other games in the same time that she is playing TS4 in other computer...
Theres a way to open the ea app always in offline mode?
You have to FIRST login, BEFORE you can go offline...
Simulating offline conditions won't mean jack-poo if you lose your Internet connection, which is quite common, as you are not guaranteed good service nation-wide, too many states cater to monopolistic ISPs, this ain't South Korea <=(They are reputed at having the best Internet)
Forcing the EA app into offline mode may vary based on the platform. Typically, you can disable network connections or enable airplane mode to simulate offline conditions. Consult the app's settings or support resources for specific instructions tailored to your device.
In spite of missing out on the upcoming dragon age, my HDD will never again see another bait & switch game! As there are far better games and companies out there!
Yep, I was also amazed to notice that I cannot access my games if I do not have internet connection. Even sh*tty Epic Launcher does have offline mode. Luckily I haven't bought many games from Origin/EA app because this is absolute BS and they don't seem to be very keen to fix this considering this thread was started a while ago. I will certainly NOT buy any more games from this cr*ppy launcher.

Hey @pulseIm,
No, the EA app unfortunately doesn't support offline play yet. However, the teams are aware of the feedback regarding this requested feature for the EA app.
Origin does support offline play, however. So if you/your girlfriend owns the game as a standalone copy or via EA Play (Pro), as long as it is not EA Play via Xbox Game Pass, it should be possible to use Origin and make use of offline play.
They will in no way imaginable concern themselves with what their customers want, as they set up their library-locking feature that can/will fully take access to your games away from you...
EA has proven to be consumer antagonistic, so your entire library is locked whenever you lose your internet which means you will not have access to the games you bought.
This is ironic as they spent so much in order to force the lawful acquisition of their titles by setting up a mandatory launcher that is custom-made to lock you out of your purchased games...
It is absolutely cheating the consumer base when you specifically set up a system that will 100% remove access to the game that was purchased, so in no possible way does any manager/exec hold any concern about the customer's access to their libraries, that has been proven by EA's deeds much more than their words...
As evidenced by their inaction for going on 2 years now... so my observation is that their concern is solely on selling goods that are not 100% reliable or accessible.
This has the undeniable effect of guaranteeing that I no longer willfully purchase access to goods offered by EA as long as this company exists, because why would I purchase games that I don't have 100% access to?
No, I'd rather not acquire anything published by this company, as there are far better companies than EA, so to EA: you're not the only game in town!
I can somewhat understand if this library-locking launcher was mandated from the start so one could have the proper info for purchasing decisions beforehand, as I would not have done so,
But I did indeed purchase their games before they decided to have a mandated library-locking feature, so now I have games that I will not be able to access after my purchase!
So I will no longer make that mistake ever again by giving any more of my money for trade with this company, as they made the sober and deliberate decision to only offer goods that are not 100% accessible!
Please tell us how. I can't figure it out
+ its bs...
10/6/23 Went offline in the middle of Sims 4 because it had checked for a 'delivery' and couldn't get back into my game. Absolute BS that I can't play a game I spent hundreds of dollars on, please fix this!!!!!
I would like to confirm that the EA app will not open when there is no wifi. I’m currently without wifi and cannot get it or my sims 4 game to run.
Same thing here. I work offshore and have to use my mobile phone as a hotspot (which doesn't always have available service). When i put the app on offline mode it won't even stay there. If my pc sleeps or even just the screen turns off when i come back it pops up a login error and wants to restart the app. I love sims and madden, but i just can't bring myself to renew my playpro or to buy any games run on this platform until you support offline login. The origin app was perfect and you had to go tinker with it.
