The link to download/ install the EA app seamed ok and text showed during the installation onto the desktop, but, once the install finished and origin uninstalled I open the desktop EA App and am only able to see a grey/ blue blank square. There is no login buttons or text is visible to show, direct, or tell me what to do when the EA app is launched. I can hover over the grey square and my mouse registers there is some type of text box as my mouse arrow turns to a typing bar, however, there is nothing showing me what to do. I have read other forums, I have closed Discord from background apps, uninstalled, rebooted my laptop and reinstalled several times, with no success or any change. Attached are screen shots of the pop ups i get after clicking the desktop app and the mystery grey box after clicking yes. PLEASE HELP!

With no word on what to do. I am taking this as a sign from the man made universe to no longer sink hard earned money into useless junk that is EA. Thank you EA for teaching me a hard lesson in wasting money on crap that is sims packs which add little no value to my life. Cheers.

I have this problem too after I downloaded the app yesterday. I've managed to guess what the hidden boxes were asking for (email and password) so managed to log in, but it opens as a blank box too. Once I'm logged in though I can open games from the desktop icons.

@megan1095 did you ever figure out what was wrong

No. I've spoken to three different advisors, repaired the app, installed and reinstalled the app, clean booted my computer, no luck. The final advisor told me he was going to make a report, but I may not get a direct response. Just sitting and hoping it will be fixed soon, really frustrating.

mm yea I moved on, though id come check in. Hope you get your solution for the same thing that I had/ have. You got more luck with someone actually getting in touch with you. wish there was a refund option as if id known id only get to play $200 NZD worth of games for only 1 month. Id never would have bought any of it. All the best and hope you get things fixed.
