EA App Flyouts
EA App has annoying flyouts that are distracting and break window cohesion: Other terrible game launchers (read Epic Games Launcher) use similar methods of pushing out garbage that no one pays attention to... Good game launchers (read Steam) don't have disruptive, distracting excrement that takes up valuable screen space.
Add option for closing app entirely when you hit the X
Please for the love of almost everything except money put in a switch that will let me close the EA app entirely when I hit "close" in the top right of the window, instead of "closing" to the system tray (effectively just minimizing the app.) I do NOT want ads popping up in the corner of my screen. I will Go Out Of My Way to not purchase anything that is advertised to me in this invasive manner. I do NOT want the app to be running in the background when I hit the "close"- CLOSE! button. Not Minimize! Close! General computer courtesy, in my opinion, is allowing the user to control their experience. EA is failing spectacularly at this by prioritizing their Ads over user experience, if what I suspect (that this wasn't a decision by the devs and was instead a decision by management) is true. I suspect this because almost every other app in existence that might have a reason to minimize to system tray (auto updates, etc.) gives the user the option to forego whatever niceties that minimizing to system tray does and close the app entirely, should they wish to. Even if it takes menu-diving to find. Another idea: Allow us to turn off pop up ads. We already pay money for your games, and I'm certain you already sell any data of ours that you can get your hands on to ad partners. At least give us the option to have a clean app experience (at the very least for those of us dedicated enough to find the settings to make it so.) Do better.
Screw your "EA App Needs To Restart" while playing
Seriously, what MONKEYS work on design and coding of this thing? If I started EA App that's because I want to PLAY A GAME. If I am playing a game I DON'T WANT TO STOP JUST SO YOUR APP CAN RESTART. If you need to check for updates DO IT BEFORE OPENING IT AND UPDATE IT BEFORE LAUNCH LIKE STEAM DOES FOR AT LEAST A DECADE. SHEESH.
Unable to load Inbox via EA Connect while in game

TRY AGAIN LATER. And when I switch to Inbox it shows an error as shown in the screenshot Any solution?
EA APP：platform reasons led to login failure
I bought The Sims 4 on Steam, and I still don't get why I have to open EA App to play it—or why opening the game through EA App requires Steam too. Who came up with this ridiculously dumb design? If you're going to make me link both accounts, I should be able to launch the game directly from either platform without jumping through hoops. Anyway, now it's gotten even worse. Ever since the most recent update, about 8 out of 10 times I try to log in, I get a pop-up saying "platform reasons led to login failure." To actually get into the game, I have to keep smashing the "Play" button in EA App, wait like 30 seconds, and then get hit with a "try again later" message. If I'm unlucky, I might need to do that ten or twenty times before the Sims 4 window finally shows up. I've tried logging out and back into both Steam and the EA App multiple times, but nothing helps. My internet is fine—I even bought a VPN, just to rule that out. But honestly? It doesn't make a difference whether the VPN is on or off.
