Realtime Tracking Use Case Question

Realtime Tracking Use Case Question

Hi there,

 

I've been building an app to make using a treadmill/stairmaster more fun by looking at what song a user is listening to and recommending speeds/machine settings in order to sync to the beat better.

 

After building the application and shipping it to TestFlight, I realized that I'm going to be capped at 25 users using the web API.

 

Is there an alternative way for me to go about this? I just need the user's now playing track in theory, I can drop features that skip/pause/play. I don't even need track feature data, I can use my internal system to find the BPM of the song. All I need is for users to be able to authenticate, and then to get the currently playing track. Is that something I can do without having 250,000 monthly users?

To clarify, I am totally willing to try and integrate the SDK's for IOS and Android into the application if this will help me be accessible to more users, but it looks like those are also limited to 25 users..
