Hi,

Posting here to try to get some feedback on my athlete-limit increase form
(submitted April 29, then again June 1 following the Strava API changes).

 

What changed since the June 1 update: I self-upgraded to the 10-athlete
Standard Tier — and I'm already at capacity (9/10 connected), with ~150
users on a waitlist, ready to connect. The 10-athlete cap is now the only
thing holding back the public launch.

 

The app: RunQuest maps an athlete's Strava activities onto a grid of
unlockable territory squares (read-only, gamified running, France-only at
launch). The app is already live on Google Play and the App Store in France.

 

Compliance: read-only scopes, direct API calls from my own backend (no
third-party intermediary platform), compliant with brand guidelines
("Connect with Strava" button + Strava attribution on all data displays).
From my point of view, I meet all the requirements.

 

The ask: my form requested 2000. If a lower interim cap (e.g. 500) is
faster to approve, that works perfectly for me — I'd rather unblock the
current waitlist now and revisit later as growth justifies it. Last form
submitted June 1, Client ID 229545.

 

The silence since April 29 is really frustrating — I don't even know
whether the request is still being processed, especially as some people
seem to get a response within just a few days.

Hoping someone from Strava sees this forum.

Have a good day everyone,
Cédric

Client ID: 211754                                                                                                                                                             

I submitted my extended tier request on June 2 and haven't heard back yet, so I wanted to add my voice here.                                                                  

My app is AI RunCoach — a personalized running coach that reads a user's Strava activity data and builds adaptive training plans around it. It's a single-user, read-only     

integration: the app only accesses data belonging to the authenticated user, with no social features, no leaderboards, and no data sharing.

I've gone through the API agreement carefully and built the app to be fully compliant. I'm not looking for anything beyond what the application describes — just confirmation that the use case is approved so I can continue building.                                                                        

If there's anything additional you need from me to move the review forward, I'm happy to provide it.
