The EA App is a digital distribution platform for Microsoft Windows and macOS, developed by Electronic Arts for downloading, and later purchasing and playing video games.

The EA App contains social features such as profile management, networking with friends with chat and direct game joining along with an in-game overlay, streaming via Twitch and sharing of game library and community integration with networking sites like Apple ID, Amazon, Facebook, Google, Discord, Steam, Twitch, Xbox network, and PlayStation Network. In 2011, Electronic Arts stated that it wanted their service to match Valve's Steam service, a primary competitor, by adding cloud game saves, auto-patching, achievements, and cross-platform releases. By 2013, the service had over 50 million registered users.
