I couldn’t find this question (but maybe I’m a bad searcher).  I have an app that uses my API key which works great.  Athletes can use the app and it works great.  I’m in the process of building a separate app, but notice that to setup the API it seems to only let me have one app.  I’ve looked through most of the documentation, and it doesn’t specify that I can’t create multiple apps...but I don’t want to break any ToS gothcas.  So if I have a mapping app, and a streak\data app, can I use the same API connection?  Do I need to setup a different type of profile?  Do I need to setup an additional athlete profile (that seems weird...)

Nevermind, I found the answer here: https://communityhub.strava.com/topic/show?tid=2371&fid=7

This is essentially what I was trying to do - get a dev\test site that is not on my production domain.  Sigh….looks like another Strava account is my only option

If both apps are supposed to have the same users then you can treat the second app like an additional option to the first app with the same access tokens and so on. For a complete distinct app though you need a second Strava account and you have to start the application review process again.
