EA SPORTS™ FIFA 21 Companion Wiki

This app is really good and thanks to the new update it is easier to find specific cards you are looking in the transfer market but then sometimes the app freezes and I can’t do anything and I have to log back in. Also in the transfer market there are times were after a couple of bids you can’t bid any more so you have to log out and log back in. But overall it would be the best app if it weren’t so freeze most of the time and sometimes. Also this app sometimes doesn’t save my squad so when I play on console I have to make my squad all over again. Also I would like FIFA to help buy FIFA points through the mobile app so you can pay through an iPhone gift card. This app helps me make my team better without going on a console.

As much as people complain about the transfer market bug which does become annoying, there is a simple way around this and that is backing out of the transfer market and going to your transfer targets. It’s super quick to do and is less than 30 secs to do. If it bugs again, back out and return, it’s no hard to do. People are really dumb if they haven’t figured out how to get around this. Even the platform version does that sometimes. SOMETIMES. Not all the time. Beyond that bug, everything works really great and you can literally do everyone in this app as far as FUT is concerned, other than not being able to play the game. Love everything about it! Thank you EA :)

This app works great. It helps me keep up to date with special giveaways and allows me to purchase and sell players without being on my console. While I do wish there was a way to be able to like sim matches and stuff the app does what it needs to do. I have a little bit of a problem with the transfer market sometimes with my coins not being returned directly until I close the app after someone outbids me on an item. Other than that, works wonders. I’ve made many squads because I’m bored and have been able to keep track of stuff that I normally wouldn’t be able to.

I read the reviews and people are just bunch of whiners, this app is working just fine. Some things you can’t do on the app that you can do on PS4 or XBOX and I’m sure that EA are aware of that but overall it’s a nice app that you can use on the go. There is one thing that is annoying and it’s not about the app it’s about the SBC, some squads that players tried to build are not working for example in the BASIC category “the correct position” I put 3 players , 3 different leagues and 3 different nationalities and I didn’t get to chemistry 12 and I saw that others didn’t get it too.

However why can’t we use this app to log into our FIFA 17 account, think EA we still do stuff on that account so y’all need to rethink that decision. Also why is this so limited to only the features you have on this, why can’t we see our my club and the details, sometimes people leave their house for the country(vacation, business trips etc) and we don’t have our console with us so what we should do, play SBC and keep getting the sucking packs with nothing great? Nahhh atleast let us sim stuff come on guys just do more please.

Anyone would loves and plays fifa/fut often would have this great companion app. BUT anyone who uses the app that loves playing fifa KNOWS you cant bases the players on the face of the cards but by their details like agility, balance, crossing etc.. this info is IMPERATIVE when shopping in the transfer list for a new player. I like the app but cant truly love the app with out that BASIC capability!!! How can u run ur business market without specific background details???

You know the app could be truly amazing, if it were to be fixed, there are mayor bugs, one of the bigger ones being the transfer market, when I’m bidding or more than 5 players, in the last 15 seconds it won’t let me bid again, no matter ho hard I try, it will just say there’s a higher bid even tho there isn’t, and time runs by and I have to close the app and open it again, and it takes A WORLD for it to open and load, I go back to my transfers and find that all the players I was bidding for are expired and were taken for the same price that it was when they said they’re was a higher bid and it wouldn’t let me bid, this really frustrates me, especially because I’m not always on my PS4 and I want to be able to gain some profits on the move. Really disappointing.

This app works great when it lets you log in, it has some minor imperfections, like not letting you see the full stats for sbc players, not being able to build a squad with a preset concept player option etc..all things that can be ignored (for now). The biggest problem is the ability to log in. I understand when you are playing on your console, you may not go into the app, but when I have been logged off (and my console has been turned off) for more than 20 minutes, and i still cant access my squad on the app is infuriating. This has been a problem since the beginning of this companion app. It doesn’t communicate with its servers and it makes no sense. What if i turned off my ps4 before a trip and i went on my phone to check my squad or sbc’s and it wouldnt let me due to me “still being logged in on console” and i had to wait until i went home again....i shouldnt have to relaunch fifa to log in and log back out just to be able to use this app..its a major inconvenience and should've been solved on day 2 but its is now a few years in and this problem is occurring...unacceptable...

Absolutely horrible app worse than previous years and it is on purpose, EA makes it so that after you make around 5 bids the app just mucks up and gives you an error when you try to bid again (it happens more often in the last minute of a card expiring), to bid on the card you must refresh the app by double clicking the home and flicking the app out of your recently used then clicking on it again, this take around 15-20s and by that time the card you were interested in has expired. We have taken the time out of our day to utilize the option EA “offers” of buying our team while away from home, this app is not meant for trading and these glitches will always be there. They waste my time, your time, and the hundreds of thousands of people (should be millions soon) that spend the time to write these well deserved horrible reviews, but This company is an absolute scam because they don’t have to listen do to the monopoly they have ensued. Don’t buy Fifa points and game share with a friend if you can they dont deserve a penny from you. If you ever see a petition to sign for making fifa points illegal due to gambling, please sign because that is the only thing the community can do to push against the f*****. They monopolized the football video games and too bad PEZ doesnt have a higher budget.

This app is absolutely awful when it comes to the transfer market as it will often not allow you to make a bid after a certain amounts of bids made. It just gives an error and you have to quit the app to in order to get the transfer market to work again. The problem with that is the app is so slow to start that you will often lose the bid (for the price you were prepared to beat) by the time the app reboots. Also if you use the app for multiple things, during a single session the app will often freeze up. For example, if you poke around in squad building challenges or look at your active squad and then go to another section of the app, the pages will often stop loading and the buttons stop working forcing you to kill the app. I have to quit the way too many times per session, and end up using the app in small increments of 1-2 minutes where I preemptively quit and restart the app for me to give this app anything but the 1 Star I gave it. Fix the app!

This year's app is horribly unstable. It constantly hangs when doing tasks like posting players on the transfer list or searching for players to fill in SBCs. When tracking transfer list bids you've made it will prevent you from revising a bid saying a updated bid has occurred even when one hasn't happened. When searching for players in my club it fails to find any players when using simple search constraints like "Midfielder" even though it works for more constrained asks like "CM". It's so unstable I can barely use it for more than a minute or so without having to close it and restart. It also is always telling me that a new update is needed and seems to download the update only to keep doing the same thing almost everytime I restart the app. Deleting the app from my phone and downloading a fresh copy from the store doesn't help.

Hello i am writing another review. it has been two weeks since I created my account i have played 106 games and done sbc’s objectives and played every game mode. And when i open the app It still say’s that i have to”play more if the game”. This is honestly a joke and false advertising when i bought fifa 20 it said that i could access the transfer market from the companion app but i cant. I contacted ea and they said that i was close to getting it unlocked about three days ago and i still haven't gotten it so what now. This i feel that to fix this they should make it a set amount of games and as on objective in the “objectives” tab in game so you can track your progress. And then when you get access to combat all of the bots you should have to do email verification. I am honestly verry disappointed in ea’s app

The app is convenient. I am a trader so I bid on the transfer market regularly. In my experience the buy now feature in the transfer market works for the most part to snipe. But It is horrible when you are trying to bid in the transfer market. It is near impossible to win a bid in the last 30 seconds. There has been so many times when I am bidding in the last 30 secs competitively then my bid won’t get entered due to an error which causes me to lose bids. If there’s a way to fix that piece then this app would definitely get a higher rating. I’d recommend just using the game to bid competitively. If you don’t mind losing on bids then the app can work for you to complete SBCs and mass bid. You just won’t have any luck if you want to go back in to the bid and try to bid competitively.

EA banned my fut transfer market for nothing, first of all I have only one account I don’t transfer coins and I didn’t buy coins from nobody, I didn’t break ea rules, i followed their rules where it says make coins by buying and selling items in the transfer market, I used fifa points, and I sold some silver and bronze cards like everybody else does, so there is no reason no get banned my account from transfer market, I contact them 2 times for an investigation so they can see I did not do anything wrong but they haven’t answered yet they made a mistake , so I’m so sad I’m playing following their rules and they banned, there is many people who have many accounts transfer coins and they have no problem, I didn’t do any of that, so I don’t know what to do now....
