Why am I unable to give kudos or likes on my iPhone?

I am unable to give kudos using my iPhone. I can tap the kudos icon, it turns orange, but when i refresh the screen, the kudos has disappeared, and I do not show in the list of kudos givers.

If I attempt to like a comment someone has made, I get an error message - ‘something went wrong, please try again’.

I am able to give kudos and likes from a PC, although I suspect that I am being limited to the number of kudos in a period of time.

Any ideas or reasons would be appreciated

Hi ​@ferg_j59 

If it works in the web browser, it's probably not the antispam limit (I’m just guessing - but tbh it wouldn't make much sense to allow getting around a limit simply by using a different device).

Just a thought - I’ve seen people reporting issues while using iOS 26 beta - any chance you're using it on your iPhone?

Hi ​@Jana_S 

Update - I am now being blocked on the PC 🤣

Looks like it’s the ‘antispam limit’.

Makes you wonder why Strava has an article on how to get more kudos when they actively prevent you from giving kudos 🤪

@ferg_j59 - thanks for writing in and sorry about that. It appears you may have hit our limit for the maximum number of kudos you can give per hour. Please wait an hour to try again. If you continue having trouble, please wait 24 hours before giving more kudos. Sorry for any inconvenience.
