You can only choose between two distance challenges every month (ride). Thats to ride 200km or 800km in one month. It’s a big leap from 200 to 800km. Why cant they also make a challenge for something in between. 400km or 500km in one month.

I ride a lot of MTB, and I enjoy finding new tracks in my neighbourhood that I haven't used before.Could Strava not generate a feature where you can see the % of new track ridden that day both in numbers and on the map?Could also be applied to many other activities besides MTB..

I’ve tried legit everything but my garmin 3S still wont sync anything to Strava - disconnecting and reconnecting it. It shows my old apple watch is still there but says to accept conditions, but i no longer have access to it. Please help.  

Does anyone else find the pause button in a bad spot on iPhone?I am regularly accidentally pausing the app when trying to swipe up on iPhone. It is quite frustrating. 

I have a suggestion: when the heart rate is high the same notice that comes up to tell us to move can show up to suggest starting an activity.

I would like to report a possible UI inconsistency / bug in the Power Skills feature between Android and iOS apps.As you know, Power Skills allows switching between All-time records and Last 8 weeks (or a custom date range). The values shown outside the ring should reflect the selected time range.Observed behavior: Android app: The values outside the ring correctly update depending on the selected range (All-time vs Last 8 weeks / custom range). iOS app: The values outside the ring always show All-time records, regardless of whether “Last 8 weeks” or a custom range is selected. Only the ring visualization changes. This makes it difficult to interpret recent performance on iPhone, as the numerical values shown do not match the selected timeframe and can be misleading.Q

Hi there,I noticed that my weekly stats were not updated after Sunday’s activity. During the week on Zwift I rode 150 km in total and today (Sunday, Jan 18th) I rode another 100 km. However the stats look like this: The stats for the year showed below are correct. Exactly the same happened to me last week, where Sunday’s ride was not taken into account. Any idea whether I do something wrong or it’s a bug? What I can add, right after logging the activity I switched its visibility just to me to adjust the title and description, and right after that I switched it again to public.

Hi! I’ve recently started using a Coospo H8 heart rate monitor for my workouts and had no issues connecting or recording the data, so all looks good while I’m working out. When I save the activity however it doesn’t seem to retain the data and it’s as if I’ve not recorded anything; no average HR visible on the activity or anything like that. I was wondering whether anyone knew what the issue was, maybe I’m not doing something right?Thanks!

When a Privacy Zone is configured around a home location, the activity track is correctly hidden and the start and end points are moved outside of the defined zone.However, if an image is uploaded to the activity, the image is displayed on the map based on its embedded GPS metadata. If the photo was taken inside the Privacy Zone, the image marker remains visible at its original location.As a result, other users cannot see the activity track inside the Privacy Zone, but can still see the exact position of the image. This behavior can indirectly reveal the user’s home address or other sensitive locations.From a privacy perspective, image locations should respect Privacy Zones in the same way as activity tracks. Steps to Reproduce Create a Privacy Zone around a home address. Record an activity that starts or ends within the Privacy Zone. Take one or more photos inside the Privacy Zone.

Until recently, when I edited a route, I could click on the small blue dots representing public photos and they would display instantly. For several weeks now, I’ve been getting a loading icon that spins indefinitely, regardless of the quality of the internet connection.Has anyone else had the same issue and managed to resolve it?

How can I connect to an interval timer with stravadoes stava have such a thing? please help  

Hi can anyone tell me how I can do a walk / run setting on strava?

I have attached the images produced by strava app when i'm sharing my activity to Whatsapp, Instagram or even just saving the images in gallery. This is happening even when i set activity privacy to 'everyone'. 

We just had a mountain bike race last night.  Apparently, a bunch of us had our rides auto-flagged because the system thought they were e-bike rides.  When I first looked at my ride in the mobile app, I saw a box at the top that asked me to clarify if it was an e-bike ride (ride had been flagged already).  At least it gave me an option to select “ride” at that point and it was all good for me.  For a number of others (see the links below), they did not get the notification as far as they were aware, but their rides were auto-flagged.  This was just a normal MTB race on our local trails.  We are not pro-level riders, so the efforts shouldn’t appear that extraordinary.  Heck, I don’t even think we were taking any KOMs/QOMs with the efforts, so it wasn’t even a comparison to existing times on segments.  It appears the new auto-flagging system is too sensitive if it is catching that many people in a single event that are all clearly legitimate, even with heart rate data to support it.

Is the option to flag a ride still a feature.  I looked today and it seemed that the option is gone?

Completed the Virtual NYRR Resolution Run 5K this morning and it seems there are now multiple things broken and not working that had previously worked in the past. The leaderboard is currently being sorted by the total distance ran instead of the pace done for the challenge. So someone who did a 10k run at 12:00/mile is ranked higher than someone who ran 5k in 15:00. Secondly the summary page that shows you completed the challenge is just taking stats from your first run that is over 5k, regardless of whether the run that is counting towards your challenge. (Thankfully it seems like something is actually still working because if you filter to your followers you can see it links to the correct run.) Finally your position on the overall leaderboard is nonsensical and shows a position greater than the number of people signed up for the challenge. For context I’ve been doing the NYRR virtual challenges for nearly 9 years through Strava and I can’t remember things ever being this messed

I would like to see how many kilometers/hours/vertical metres, etc  I have done Nordic Sking or Snowboarding or any other activity between certain dates. Please help !!!

Hi,I have been running in this winter (Canada). I was wondering if we can create a factor to reduce or adjust pace vs effort perception to work better in training zones. Essentially, the same location can be used a reference to adjust training zones and pace expected in normal and snow conditions. This can be helpful to control the pace during the training and guide efforts.Hope this can be interesting for more people.

The recent update rounds the bars for splits on the activity graph.Visually, it doesn’t work.It breaks up the flow and the eye has to work harder to see the trend across the graph.Squared corners look nicer and translate better for the eye.I also personally prefer the time axis operating in ascending order. A faster split is less time so the bar should be smaller.My preferences of course but the rounded corners is another regression.

Bug report: On the mobile app, I (and others) cannot see the full text of my recent activities.  They are cutoff.  The “read more” option is missing.  It is strange.  If I view my wife’s recent activities from the same days, I see the “read more” link and it works.  If either of us try to view my recent activities, the “read more” option is missing.  The text cannot be read on the mobile app.  Note 1: The full text appears on the website (i.e., no problem with the web interface).Note 2: My older activities have the “read more” link (no bug).  It is only my recent activities in which the full text cannot be read on the mobile app.  Bizarre!

Is there an easy way to get Strava to suggest multiple routes between points A and B? Between two points there are always multiple ways to get from A to B, some being easier than others, either longer, shorter, more or less elevation, surface conditions (offroad to gravel to road) etc etc. It would be good to see the choice. Strava doesnt give any options. With options, this would allow creating a route with a different inbound route to the outward route. 

As Strava has been working to expand the Fatmap engine to web, I want to make this post to point out the things it does decently, mostly misses the mark on, and really needs to do better at. I use Firefox on a Windows machine to inform my experience. I’m using an activity from a friend as examples and the opinions may not apply to other sports since cycling is my main type.Activity Overview:Map window should still be resizable. Edit: JS workaround by ​@E995a1ad You cannot scroll to zoom while hovering over a photo (scrolls the whole page). Ideally the photo is exactly where you want to zoom into. Geolocated photos should be

I am the owner/admin of a local running club.   The membership is by invite only, the requirement is that you must be a member of the real running club.On a weekly basis I copy the weekly data so that our club has historical data of previous weeks.   As a result of that, year-to-date leaderboards are produced.There is one slight problem.   The desktop version of groups limits the leaderboard to 100 members.   If the group has more than 100 members in the week that completed runs, the additional members are not shown.Can this be addressed?

Hello, is it possible to export a list from all users who gave me on my activity a kudo?
