When will EA APP replace Origin as the definitive platform?
I think I read that it was going to be December when Origin would go out of business.

@EA_DarkoNo it does not, it forces us to switch to EA App now days and uninstalls origin, get your facts together!
You get presented with this and you cant escape it.

Community ManagerHey @zapy85 you can still have Origin installed even after the EA app.
I have it running on my machine as I type.

No, It's not. I'm having Origin for EA's games on Steam, just try to install EA app and the first thing It does is uninstall Origin from my computer.
Fix it, replace the client need for EA games on Steam to EA app, so I don't have to jump between two client when I need to play game on EA app (Xbox Game Pass) or EA games on Steam. Decide which one is your main client and get rid the other one, focus on one thing.P/S: It seem that EA app is now replaced Origin for EA Games on Steam (didn't known that before), just that I need to uninstall Origin, otherwise Steam will keep using Origin instead of EA app. Because EA app uninstall Origin. I try looking for Origin but can't seem to find the download page anymore, I try to launch the game for it to install Origin but now It's installing EA app, that fine by me.
Hey Darko - seriously??? Maybe you are one of the lucky ones who were not forced yet to install the EA App. But the day will come and you will be confronted with that glamorous piece of of software called EA App.
Since last Thursday the Origin App forced me and many others with an uncloseable popup to install the EA App. The EA app automatically uninstalls Origin.
If you uninstall the EA App (because it does not work with many games) and reinstall Origin, you will get the same PopUp again and you can't use Origin anymore.
Since 5 days I can't play anything anymore - like I already stated in some other posts. But - as always - there is no reaction at all.

Hey @crazyDJSIRm I have been using EA app since before it went into beta.
If having issues with your games it is best to provide as much info as possible as to the issue you are seeing
Darko...and there are many, many more... plus I sent within the EA App an Error report.
- @crazyDJSIRm same thing and im browsing all of the posts yet no real solution only BS how its probably fault on our side.
Can we stop blaming EA customers for not being informed that EA App has gone live for Steam OriginThinClient games?
The only reason i've still been using Origin is because Steam Games were not updated to work with EA App and would not launch.
I've made 2 threads about it, and both times met with "work in progress"
So would have been good to send a notification to your customers "Hey EA App is now compatible with Steam and Epic Game Stores!" or something.
Instead of just being greated with this screen that either uninstalls Origin, or you cant use Origin at all.....hell even put it on the splash screen.
