Yes, because I like to try a bunch of AAA games from PC-gamepass which 
uses the x-box app, and that launches the EA app when they're EA games. 
I tried (and even finished a few) far cheaper than I could have that way.

I'm not really sure that counts as 'using' the app, as all I do with it 
is launch the game.  I don't buy the games on there.
