Why is it that by selecting E-mountain biking as a sport I have no alternative in the app I can only choose commuting and cannot choose training or racing? Thank you

Since the strava has athlete intelligence launched, which AI based insights or analysis I can do for my own application?What things will be allowed in this case?Will a summariser for months data and analysis of months data be okay? since strava only provides athlete intelligence considering one single activity.

Hi folkscan someone explain what the “shadowed graphs” are behind the heart line on the heart rate workout charts?thanks!!

Since the past two days, I haven't been able to see the heatmap. The button is missing in the Android app. I've tried it on different devices and have also reinstalled the app. There is just the possibility to select Point of Interest.I have a premium membership. 

Hi,Strava continually shows lower power reading when compared to power reading on my Garmin.  I have disconnected Strava from my Garmin several time and it still shows lower power reading.

The Ice Watch is said to be compatible with Strava, according to their website and documentation.The Android Ice Watch app has a ‘connect to Strava’ feature.But when I try to connect it says: ‘Request failed’. No reason, just failing. How can I learn what the underlying problem is?

Dear Strava Support Team,  I am writing to express my concern and seek for assistance, as the subscription fee was deducted from my GCash account worth P1,500 through Google Play without prior notification. Upon checking on your Terms and Conditions Support page online, it was stated that we are entitled to get a refund as long as the cancellation was done within 48 hours. Luckily, I immediately cancelled the subscription the time I knew I was renewed.  I kindly request your immediate assistance in processing my refund. Your prompt response would be greatly appreciated because this matter is quite urgent as I am in need of the funds for an emergency.

Hi All,Is it just me, or can we not create segmenst for MyWhoosh Rides? I know it will be a private segment, but at the moment I cant even do that. When I want to save the segment, I just get a screen that says Strava is offline. I’ve been trying for hours, without luck.TIA

Does anyone know if that feature is just gone? I really liked seeing my personal heatmap when I opened up the map from a new activity, or seeing it when I opened up the map for someone else’s. I just don’t have any option to add that layer now, does anyone know how to restore it?

Hi, I've upgrade to the family plan and invited 3 people to join. We all live in The Netherlands, however 2 people get the error message that they don't live in the same country as me. We all live in the same city in the same country, so we should be able to join in the family plan. Please help out.

Saved Routes not showing. I’ve just imported a GPX file for a route i’ll be riding tomorrow on my Mac. I can see the route map in the google browse, but when i open Stava on my iphone, all my own routes are missing; not loading. iOS 18.1.1. I’ve also tried it on my work iphone, but same problem. I’ve read on this community, that others are experiencing similar problems. I’ve logged out, closed the app, logged in again, same problem. I’ve also shut both phone down, restarted them, logged into the strava app again, but still not routes.I need this to work, it’s the reason i’m paying to use the app.

If you click on the "Challenges" tab in the top of web-based Strava you get a nice overview of all the available changes and it shows which ones you joined. Unfortunately, as far as I can see, on this page it is not visible on this page:- Which challenges you already completed- What the progress is on your challenges, e.g. 8km out of 100km targetAdding this helps in targeting a specific challenge to complete and prevents that you have to click through on each challenge to see its details.

Note error in title: not visible on Strava App on device nor in my activities. The file has not successfully loaded into Garmin via my 1050 edge. I think somehow it may have synched via the web and bypassed the garmin upload to garmin connect (and then to Strava). 1040 works flawlessly; 1050 - not so much.  Tried to add it via the .fit file and had little success.https://www.strava.com/activities/13708359691 what am I doing wrong ? is the .fit file corrupted on my garmin ?  how to I repair that ( reset device ?) it’s brand new but ok.  feedback appreciated.Kevin

How can I make an activity show in my feed? My recent activity can be searched in my activities and also I'm sure it has been recorded since it shows in the weekly report but in my feed it is not showing.

Today I went on my first bike ride since December and when I ended/saved my activity I noticed that for some reason Strava hid my start and end location. Why? Is this a bug? Anyway I went into my privacy settings and the start/end hide, which I had set to off, was changed! Now I have a hidden start and end that I want to unhide so that my followers can see them.  How can I unhide them? I can’t find any obvious way to do this in the app. Do I have to use the website?  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.I wish programmers would be more considerate and not mess with personal settings, or log you out of an app when it upgrades, or time out your log in (well except for sensitive apps like banking), etc. I haven’t had any log out problems with Strava but this setting changing by itself was annoying.

Strava is getting bigger and bigger,  along with people getting more excited to show every bit of movement they do, like walking the dogs, soccer training, a short swim in the river etc. This is great, however it clogs up my feed. Surely a button can be created that says 'VIEW RUNS ONLY'. This would allow me to concentrate on the things I love...obviously you could have view swims, bile, hike etc. I really think this is a simple request. Thoughts???

Is there any way to plan training on Strava? I signed up for a half marathon running training plan, but I can't see upcoming activities to do in my calendar. Is there this functionality in the app?

Hello, can someone please explain why my last gravel ride was not counted to my monthly goal? Under the main current km number 59km are missing (117km is showing), but this overall distance is actually display correctly below (176,2km) in smaller letters… Thanks!

Hello,my garmin automatically starts an activity when I go out to run some errands. It is generally activities that are less than 15 min. And  then the activity appears on my strava feed. Is there a feature to automatically exclude all activities that are less than certain amount of time?

I am using a Samsung Galaxy watch 6 and for the last 2 activities I did, both running, the map is not showing. Both activities are done outside and surely has a clear GPS signal and I have always been in the same route for previous activities recorded and posted in Strava. I can’t identify the issue. Can you help me?

Every ride shows “Type of Ride” as “Commute” by default.  How do I turn that off? None of my rides are “Commute”

I've been biking the same trails with my chocolate buddy. All the same trails. Today I got a local legend status and he did not. Why did my smooth mocha friend get overlooked?
