Trying to apply for app owner status but cant see the application form

Hey everyone,

Hope someone can help me out here. I’ve been trying
to apply to become an app owner so I can use OAuth
for my app but when I go to the application page
I can’t see any form or button to actually submit
anything.

My account is over 2 months old and I’ve done more
than 10 improving identifications so I should meet
the requirements.

Has anyone else had this issue? Is there something
I’m missing or do I need to contact the team directly?

Thanks :grinning_face: !

Looking at your IDs, I’m only seeing supporting IDs: https://www.inaturalist.org/identifications/kxrmxk

The application page says:

In order to submit an application your account must be at least 2 months old and must have made at least 10 improving identifications in the last month.

That link goes directly to a help page that defines each type of identification. Did you click on it? We get this question often, so maybe it needs to be more clear. Would it help if “improving” was bolded or italicized?

welcome to the forum

checking out your IDs, I cannot see any improving IDs that you’ve made, only supporting ones.

If you go to https://www.inaturalist.org/identifications/kxrmxk, you’ll notice that beside each of your IDs, it says ‘supporting’

compare that to an improving ID:
