Hi there,  There is a path near me which is designated as a public footpath, but Strava is happy to route cycling routes down it - in the UK there is a distinction in law between bridleway/byway (cycles allowed) and footpath (cycles not allowed). I had a run-in with the landowner yesterday, and they are well within their rights to insist that no cycles are allowed.  I understand that Strava uses OSM data but this appears to be correctly tagged as a footpath only (see screenshot below) - implying the data is not being correctly grabbed, or the Strava base map needs some kind of refresh. I wonder if there is a way to ensure that Strava does not route cyclists down here in the future.  FWIW - whether or not this path is appropriate to ride on is irrelevant, the distinction is made in law. I feel there is a delicate truce that must be maintained between landowners and the public regarding access rights and path designations in the UK. Proof of ab

On a regular basis my 30min to 60 min workout session syncs as only a few seconds when I finish the activity, despite the full session appearing on watch.I am using a Samsung Watch, I initiate and end the session in the Strava app on the Watch.. there is never any issue with what is displayed in App on the Watch, however, when the activity is uploaded to strava, instead of the full session only a few seconds are uploaded. Very frustrating and I am sure I am not pausing sessions. Has anyone experienced this?

I have a number of routes on my Garmin 1030+ device that I want to be able to see on Strava. (These appear in my 'saved routes' on the Garmin.) Is it possible to push these to my Strava subscription? And if so, how do I do it? 

Tried several times this week to open my SPORT YEAR 2023 overview. it works the first 5 elements until the strava app crashes and shutdown. after the page „top 3% user“ i guess, that the next following page presents the 1st of my own data, but never showed up. did not find any support email to STRAVA. thx

Hi all. Strava used to have a very useful feature whereby a user could highlight a section of an activity and see what the distance and elevation gain was within it. I now cannot use that feature - when I highlight a section by dragging it it no longer gives the stats for that section. It used to be available on the main 'Analysis' button, but now that is no longer a button. Does anyone know how to still access this drag feature to get the stats within a section? ThanksDavid

Hello I have big ask to Strava Management. Mayby you can send to them my message.I use strava from 3 years. I'm happy with strava but i have one dream. After the end of Endomodo, i saved all activities in my pc. But i can not export them to strava 😞 All files are optional in tcx and in json format (attached foto)Mayby you will find good solution and i can export them to strava? If it will be possible, i promise, i will subscribe strava till the end of my sport activity. And i'm sure, tausend of old endomondo user will make the same...Sorry for my english... I hope, someone can help me...Greetings from Poland

I miss the option to edit multiple activities at once, like visibility and delete options and the bike that was used. For example, I have many invisible activities that I want change to visible. Now I can only do one at the time.

For people that I follow, can I tell whether their activities have had their visibility level set to Followers or Everyone?

Does anyone else have difficulty searching for specific segments? I am working on doing a segment challenge for my local running club and I am finding it very difficult to filter and search for specific segments. Right now there are 334 pages of segments that I have to sort through…it is extremely frustrating. The only search criteria that is included does not allow me to hone in on a specific type of route or specific location. Everything is very general and requires a lot of scrolling.If this doesn’t already exist, has Strava considered adding filters to the search criteria? I am a paid customer and would like to search by distance and specified location (think boundary similar to what Zillow has in its search feature). Currently I can only search based on location- which only includes segment name or a specified city/ there needs to be an option to refine this to a smaller area. I’d also like to sort based on distance of the run, type of run (one way, out and ba

I noticed the biggest climb is missing from my stats. I remember it used to be there but now there is no value, just a blank field. Any ideas?

I just recently got an Apple watch, connected Strava to Apple Health and allowed sharing between the apps. Syncing from Apple Health to Strava works great and activities I record on apple workout app automatically get uploaded to Strava. My issue is with syncing from Strave to Apple Health as only my Strava activities till 17th of Nov got synced, but nothing prior to that. It looks like a 30-day limitation, however, per Strava help article https://support.strava.com/hc/en-us/articles/216917527-Health-App-and-Strava this 30-day limitation applies when syncing from Apple Health to Strava only and not the other way around. As you can see from the below screenshot although only activities till 17th of Nov got synced, for some reason I can see activities from 13.01.2020 again, but nothing in between (and I have many activities

There are a lot of Pro/Am Racing car and motorcycle athletes on Strava, and want to share the physicality of our sport with the rest of the Strava community. Please add Auto Racing as an activity type 🏆🏁🏎️️

routes that are suggested by the app with difficulty "extreme" become "hard" when saved

A hidden area should be hidden always. 🙂I go trough hidden areas at a ride sometimes. But hidden areas will be hidden at the end or start of a ride. It should be hidden at always for privacy. 

I purchased Strava subscription for the first time. On web site there is end-of-year discount for yearly subscription, on mobile app there is not, so I subscribed using website. Frist what I did was to join training plan using web site. Very soon I discovered that the same plan is not visible on my mobile app. Than I created group challenge on mobile app. Of course, I discovered that this time group challenges are not visible on website. It looks like significant lack of basic communication between teams developing mobile app and website. Very strange and unprofessional.  

After deleting an activity by mistake , I have found that it is impossible to manually import the csv file from Garmin connect to strava , to reinstate the deleted activity. Is there a solution for this?Many thanks Andy

ola, eu utilizo um relogio Zeblaze stratos 2, nas primeiras vez conseguia sincronizar com o strava pelo aplicativo do relogio, chamado "infowear", mas a alguns dias não estou conseguindo mais, aparece este erro da imagem fixada.TRANSLATION: Hello, I use a Zeblaze Stratos 2 watch, the first time I was able to synchronize with Strava through the watch's app, called "infowear", but for a few days now I've been unable to do so, this error appears with the pinned image.      

Hello!I just got a HUAWEI Band 8. I synced it with both Strava and Komoot in my account.Today I went for a test walk, but nothing shows up on Strava. What more do I need to do?Thanks in advance! 

Hi, when I create a route in Strava, Starred, I find  the route on my Garmin gps under Strava routes but I cannot start it. I get the message “trouble connecting to the server error code 2050. Anyone any idea ? Ilse 

I would like to see if its possible to delay the start of timer when starting a ride. With cold weather starting in the northeast i find using gloves j need to wait to put one on until i hit the start button. it would be nice not to have the timer running before i actually start pedaling.

Hi There,I'm wondering if there is a feature where you can review commuting statistics:  I.e. on the number of trips marked 'Commute', your commute Km travelled, and CO2 saved in a particular time period?ThanksCharlie

Does anybody know how to disable the new "Nice work logging an activity" notification? I don't need a pat on the back every time I complete an activity.

I have an Apple Watch S8  GPS only but I cannot get it to track GPS data either from the Strava app or native Fitness app. All other stats appear to be okay but not sure that they might be inaccurate due to no GPS tracking?

Hello,  I record my rides two ways: 1. Using the Cyclemeter App on my phone. This automatically uploads to Strava (I can change this).  2. Using my Garmin.  Frequently I will want to change the Cyclemeter data for the Garmin data. Is it possible to do this *without* creating a new activity, but by only changing the data for a given activity [and keeping Photos, Kudos, etc that may already exist]?  Thanks,  - Peter
