You can still transfer your game titles and progress to the new app, though.

    A smarter company will do the migration for their users, especially if the new service is their own software.

      It’s more that many keep Origin because the EA App is so much more of a problem.

          Maybe you don’t need to accept new terms to access your library, only new purchases
