Hi there -

 

I’m posting to request an expedited review for increasing my athlete limit.

While I understand your website indicates a 7-10 business day timeframe, the strong momentum my app is experiencing makes a quicker review crucial.

We hit our rate limit less (max. 999 athletes connected, 3k read limits/day) less than 24 hours since launching.

Sustaining growth and user engagement relies on maintaining this momentum, but the current API limit has effectively halted its progress.

 

My email is me@timwijaya.com  - this is the email used to submit my form again.

You have to write to developers@strava.com for a limit increase.

Then you can only wait or email them again. This here is a user forum with only loose connections to the Strava inhouse developers.
