Hey @DanielGrec,
I see this happen from time to time on Origin, but not many reports appeared for the EA app.
The general workaround is to double check the privacy settings on both accounts, making sure that you both have logged into the EA app (you can't find each other if you haven't logged in yet), and you can try to find each other using the e-mail address.
Let me know if this help, I am curious to see what the solution is. If it is not the solution, then there is one more thing that I would like to try, but please first try the above.

I have a PC
My friend has an Xbox One
We are friends via the Xbox App
But we cannot find each other or sync friends via the EA app- Which is what launches Battlefront 2
It does not work if attempted through Origin, I sent a request there, He could not receive it
It does not work to change EA privacy settings
It does not work to run as an administrator, or look for the "Msconfig" processes that were causes issues in another thread.
It does not work in-game to search for eachother
It does not work through the xbox app to attempt to join his game or him join mine
- When I try to join his, Microsoft asks me which app to perform the action with- None available or selectable
-When he tried to join mine the option never highlighted to do so
In summation I think it clearly states;
It does not work
This does not work. So frustrating

Hi @JamesJensen,
Just to clarify, you want to play Battlefront II with you both playing on PC with your friend and you can't find each other?
Have you both logged into the EA app and did you add each other as a friend by using the EA username or mail address on the EA account?
