Do I need a quota extension request for a web app?

[csdiehl16]

Hi - I built a small web app as a hobby project where users can authenticate using the implicit grant flow and then get recommendations and tracks' audio features via the web api. I would like my app to be accessible to anyone on the web with a Spotify account. Does this require a quota extension request? When I looked at submitting one it said requests would not be granted for school or hobby projects, but there doesn't seem to be any other way to allow more than 25 people to use the app. Thanks!

Hi, I'm facing a similar problem. I've made a little project out of hobby + finding a little real use case that could do some helping. Unfortunately, the part where I need to add Users myself limits the app. How did you get around doing this?

Another question I have is I can apply for an extension quota, but how strict is Spotify with it? Do they readily give it for a small project with a real use case?
