Hi there,I know a lot of people have long bike commutes and want to share each commute.However, I only bike 6km to work. Cluttering everyone's newsfeed with 2 short rides a day is annoying and I manually mute all my commute rides.I think it would be fantastic if there was an option to set an activity (i.e. bike commute) as muted by default and for bike commute specifically to have a monthly summary on the last day of the month.It could look like a normal activity, but say something like "Work commute, distance: 240km, time: ... and so on".This keeps the newsfeed clean, but recognizes the effort put into even the small commutes that add up over the month.Thanks!

Issue: Currently, Strava does not support rotating photos and videos to landscape mode when a phone is rotated. This makes it difficult to properly view media with a wide aspect ratio, as it remains constrained within the app’s portrait-oriented interface. Users often upload wide aspect ratio media that lose detail when scaled down to fit the portrait view. Proposed Solution: Enable landscape mode for media viewing in the Strava mobile app. When a user rotates their phone, the photo or video should rotate accordingly, allowing full-screen landscape viewing. This would improve the experience for users who share wide-aspect content, making it easier to view uploaded media.

It’s such a simple feature to provide; let us filter the types of activity we see on our Feeds from followed users. Seems this idea was posted 2 years ago and the option still isn’t there. Do not care to see someone has sat in their shed for an hour on their Wattbike, but I am still interested in seeing their actual rides. Come on Strava.

Please add day (Mo-Thu-Wed...) to the datepicker

Imagine that you could select an interval of a given activity like this An then, for the given interval, the metrics/stats of the interval would be calculated on the fly and presented to the user as the ones presented for the whole activity. I believe it has really potential depending on the use cases

I’ve been recording my workouts on Strava for a while now, and for the last couple days, Strava has been in some sort of time warp and has been counting my time really slowly. Just this morning, I took a 50 minute class, and when I returned to my phone to stop the Strava timer, it had only been going for 18 minutes. This happened a couple other times this week. My phone is in a locker, as it always is in these type of workouts, so there’s nothing to pause it. The app is as updated as can be, and so is my phone. Nothing has changed! Has this happened to anyone here? What should I do?  

Now that summer is here, it's time to put the nets up & bring the paddles out! Pickleball has been one of the fastest growing sports in the last few years. If you’re unfamiliar with the sport, Pickleball is a racket sport that combines the elements of ping pong, tennis, and badminton. Joel Pritchard, Bill Bell, and Barney McCallum are credited with creating pickleball right from Joel’s backyard in 1965. Their intention was to create a game that the entire family could play. It's safe to say their idea has become a reality. By 1967, the first permanent pickleball court was constructed, and in 1972, the first corporation was formed to protect the creation of the sport.  During the spring of 1976, the first known pickleball tournament in the world was held at South Center Athletic Club in Tukwila, Washington. David Lester was cr

When I create a segment, I don't understand why the segment in the opposite direction appears as a segment similarity. It has nothing to do with it, I think it doesn't contribute and it causes the list of suggestions similar to the segment to be very long.

Hi, I am trying to get a sense of what's going on with an old friend who I am estranged from.  Their strava profile is set to private but a search shows numbers of activities cycling / runs unchanged for the last six months. Does this definitely mean they no longer using strava. I guess I am a little worried  as thewy have had health issues before and unsure if numbers always update.

Hi, I have recently started a group page and learning about widgets, posts and event invites.It seems I am unable to create a 'swim' event, only run or cycle. Is this correct? or am I doing something wrong?

Bonsoir, Mon total de dénivelé positif pour mes activités vélo en 2024 est de 10317m(ajout du dénivelé pour chaque activité) Par contre dans les statistiques 2024,il est inscrit 10845m! Pourriez-vous faire le nécessaire pour rétablir des données correctes, c'est à dire 10317m. Mon compte abonné est Pascal LOCHE. JE NE PARLE PAS ANGLAIS !

Hi, I just added a link to our mountain bike chat in Telegram to my profile page and right away website kicked me out and I got email saying: How is that even possible that #1 messenger in the world would cause this issue with Strava??Same thing happens in comments as well!

Hello,As I have found on help topic only GPS based activities can be cropped if you forget to push finish. Unfortunately I often forget to finish my weight training activity. What I finally realize it I have only discard it or accept my fail and save 3-5 hours workout.I hope me is not only one person suffering from that. I wondering is there any workaround or methods how to set limit for such activity duration or smth ?Any ideas are welcome.Thanks in advance.Giedrius

My latest activity has loaded but not showing anywhere?I’ve tried all the troubleshooting suggestions but nothing has worked?

It should be possible to compare segment efforts by equipment. It should be possible to know the best time on a particular segment for a particular bike.For example if a user has two bikes, a mountain bike and a road bike, it should be possible to know the best time of the segment for the mountain bike and the best time for the road bike. It should be possible to know if the the user broke the record of mountain bike when uploads a ride with the mountain bike. The same for the road bike.

Hello Strava team and users,Strava being a fitness based app is used extensively in the military. Not exclusively, as many many others use it too but for the military it’s a great tool to help track and motivate our soldiers.As some of you may know, we walk many miles carrying weight. It goes by many names I.e., tabbing, yomping, rucking and many more. However, it’s very simple and I’m sure many other people outside of the military do it too. I believe this should be a workout feature we should have access too. Not only is the distance, pace, cadence etc etc tracked but the amount of weight carried should be inputted into the data, this will greatly change the amount of calories burned. But it’ll be such a useful tool for both military training and civilian. Hope the idea takes off, C.

I only use Strava for running. I don’t want to sync any other type of workout to Strava. This means I am not able to auto-sync activities from Apple Health into Strava.I would like if Strava allowed us to enable auto-sync for only specific types of activities. Runs should be automatically synced. One could still custom import any activity, but only Runs for example would be auto-synced.

Hello Community,I’m reaching out to address some user interface issues I've been encountering recently and to seek advice or potential solutions from fellow users and the development team.Here are the key problems I've noticed:Navigation Confusion: The layout of the navigation menu has become cluttered, making it difficult to quickly find frequently used features. An intuitive and streamlined menu could greatly enhance usability.Inconsistent Button Functionality: Some buttons do not respond as expected or have inconsistent behavior across different sections of the app. This inconsistency can be confusing and frustrating, particularly when performing routine tasks.Display Errors: Occasionally, certain elements do not load correctly or are displayed improperly. This includes overlapping text, distorted images, and misaligned content, which detracts from the overall user expe

When I get kudos the notification indicator in the iOS app tells me I've got 3 kudos, but when I go into notifications there will be just the one. Likewise when it says I've got 5 kudos, there may only be 2. Anyone else getting this issue?

Hi there, I wanted to suggest including pack weight or ruck weight for hiking [and one day if someone developed a rucking activity, there too], as hiking with say 30kg, is very different to hiking with a bottle of water and a phone. I’d also imagine that Strava has the capability of calculating all sorts of useful stats around calories burnt etc with regards to body weight combined with pack weight.  

 Hi everyone, I got an email request to participate in a survey from Kasia (Strava Teserach Teams). It is a phisinng?

Hi,I forgot the e-mail account which is associated to my account: https://www.strava.com/athletes/10116982When I try to login to my usual e-mail accounts I set up new accounts. Can you locate the e-mail address to my account? Best regardsFriderike   

I’m currently doing Virtual Rides in MyWhoosh but I have a ZwiftHub. My heartrate device doesn’t connect to the Zwift Hub and doesn’t appear in MyWhoosh. So I have to record it as a separate activity. What this ends up doing is doubling the time I’m spending and possibly making my fitness and fatigue far higher than what they should be. So just an option to “ignore effort from this activity”. Same for other attributes such as time so I don’t accumulate double the time. Or have an ability to link the separate activites so that Strava understands they are the same.
