It is ridiculous that in 2023 this game launcher still cannot save login information. This has forced me and others to stop buying games from EA and buy them on the steam app which remembers login information

Summarize your bug Any time my PC boots up, I have to re-enter my password to log back into the "EA App". I am one of the crazy people who use secure passwords, so this is a MAJOR inconvenience. Please fix it. Every issue raised about this common occurrence, dating back FIVE YEARS, has been closed without a solution. Please fix the app.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Install "EA app" 2. Select "remember login details" and log in 3. Restart your computer.
What happens when the bug occurs? It forgets who I am.
What do you expect to see? Nothing, it should log in in the background and not show its unsightly visage unless prompted.
The EA app (and "Origin Launcher") hasn't been able to remember login details for at least the past 5 years. The launcher is definitely the worst out of all of them and I never buy EA games specifically because of the spiteful malware they force onto PC users.
However, some games come to Game Pass which is actually easier to use than pirating (most of the time), so this malware is back. For now.
