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.
Restore ability to hide games in library
Since you just closed 4 year old topic suggesting restoring basic functionality (that was present in origin) here I am to create new one. Please restore ability to hide games or remove them from account. This is very important for games that are demos, betas or no longer available Why do I have to watch Bejeweled 3 every time I want to find battlefield in my library? Why do I have to watch ea sports madden nfl just because I clicked on wrong tile while I had EA Play and it was instantly added to my account? I cannot even play it, it requires me to purchase subscription again (tile is grayed out) so I really have no idea why is it even visible in my library... I want to hide all these ugly mistakes and keep my library clean. It would be plus if I could add tags or group games into custom groups but just this basic functionality of hiding games and optionally removing them from account would be great.The EA PC app is still broken after 3 years
Seeing others comment on this and having run into it for the first time, the EA app is a buggy piece of trash on a good day, but today takes the cake. Tried playing Jedi Survivor, no issues until game crashes, send report and try to reopen, EA app refuses to open. I have a game that I didn't purchase on an EA platform, dependant on an app that doesn't work, and I cant even talk directly to support stagf because EA doesn't recognize that I own the game that they won't let me play. Look to old forum posts, and google around. Not one case solved by EA, suggesting that factory resetting your computer is the final troubleshooting option to make their broken app maybe work. The state of the gaming industry today is truely sad. From being EA, its in the game, to this, destroys any good memories I had playing any of your games, and the nostolgia you are hoping keeps us buying your dying properties fades more every day.Button to locate installed games
Hello, I'm opening this thread to let you know that it is incredible that in 2025 there is still no button to allow players to locate installed games like we were able to do with the Origin App. There are thousands of threads on this forum about players unable to select a folder where the game is already installed, forcing them to install the game again. I hope you will take this into consideration. Thank you.Please bring EA to cromebooks
Hi! I love The Sims 4 and used to play it on Windows, but I now have a Chromebook for school. A ChromeOS version or official cloud-play option would help a lot of students who can’t use Windows or Mac. I know I’m not the only one who’d play if it were available. Thanks for listening!
