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.

@EA_Darko This was a lie. Was forced to update a few days ago and can’t say I like the new app. I didn’t like origin but the EA app is so much worse

@EA_DarkoIm not sure what you're still doing here but you are not helping, not in the sub /EA App at least.We had a run-in months ago and you were and still are completely disconnected from the reality and posts made in the subs for /EA Apps.Either you don't understand or don't want to understand but you should not be allowed to interact in this sub forum.With all the complaints, feedback and general discussion you have brought nothing of substance to this misseray of an application during development and go-live.Last time I reported all your posts in the hope that upper mgm would see it and correct you but that does not seem to have happened.Origin gets uninstalled and forces you to uninstall it for the sake and launch of the EA App, just because YOU haven't witnessed it yet as YOUR account or region haven't been affected yet does not make OUR observations untruthfull or wrong.Learn to understand what you read and not what you think as you might not know everything.

@N7_A_M_R_Egypt forced me to unistall origins and now i cant access any games. Says cant find my account. absolutely ridiculous

@EA_Darko 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.

When will EA APP replace Origin as the definitive platform?

Hopefully not anytime soon, I still use Origin
Also considering that Mac users won't have EA app, Origin will stay their client .. then I do think Origin will stay working for a long time

Hey all, Origin is still and will continue to be available to use for the foreseeable future.

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 @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
