I pay for Gympass where I get 6 monthly strava promo codes. I’ve activated but never use it. I want to gift to a friend who uses the **bleep** out of strava lol so think he will benefit. Can I do this please. Just seems a waste of

Hi everyone,unfortunately Strava has ended the support for older smart watches with Wear OS 2.xx.(Older? Hm... almost all smart watches except the new Samsung watches 😖)I am using a Mobvoi Ticwatch Pro 3 GPS with wearOs 2.38 but the strava has still worked fine.But I had to reset my watch because of a new cell phone.Now I want to re-install also the strava app on my watch but I can't get the old strava app in the play store and I don't know any other source where I can download the installation-file.I am very disappointed. I bought the chargeable membership because of the good usability, but now I can't use it anymore.I don't need any support from strava for the app, but I want to use the old app like I did in the past two years.Dear Community:Can anyone please send me the .apk or can tell me how to install the old strava app on my ticwatch again?Thanks a lot and best regardsDirk

Idea: Add the year to the date headings on the Training Log, so instead of "JUL 17 - 23" it says "JUL 17 - 23, 2023". Currently, the only way to know what year you're looking at on mobile is to click into an activity and then go back.  

Hello Strava Community, I’m reaching out to express my concerns regarding some of the recent changes to Strava’s map features, particularly focusing on the Global Heatmap color update that occurred a few days ago. The recent update changed the color of the Global Heatmap from its familiar blueto a purplish hue. This new color blends too closely with the red of the Personal Heatmap, making it difficult to differentiate between the two, especially in Satellite View. This seemingly minor change significantly impacts our ability to read the maps accurately and make informed decisions about our routes. New Purple:     Old Blue:     I understand that this might seem like a small adjustment, but it repre

Hi guys it's great to be here. I started walking Sunday . It recorded my whole walk . I wasn't a paid member then . Then the day after it recorded 3min of an 36 min walk , and the same today . It's also not  showing beginning and end , Evan though I have changed in settings. Also today it recorded 3min again . Then on another map the whole walk. Iv paid for the monthly subscription, I'm sure last year it was free and you could record the whole activity. Help please 🥺

Since early March importing a swim from a tcx file gives errors. The time and heart rate come through, but not the distance (says it is 0m). It does seem to have it under the individual laps. I cannot see how to edit it, and if I create a manual entry instead, all the lap data is lost. Is this a known error? How can I fix it?

I was a bit too fast re-activating my subscription. It's now linked to my old account (the one I'm logged on with here). I need to move it to my active account. How can I do this?

The weekly heatmap doesn't seem very useful. Because the heat scale is global, areas with a lot of cyclists just show almost every road as red, and areas without a lot of cyclists just show everything as blue. It's OK, though not great, in high-usage areas but, in lower-usage areas, the heatmap just looks like an ordinary road map, except that a few very minor roads are coloured "barely anyone cycles here" rather than "only a few people cycle here". To be useful, I think there needs to be a way of adjusting the heat scaling, so that one can set the most popular roads in a given area to show up red, even if they're not very popular on the global scale. There could even be an option in the user interface to automatically scale the heat so that the most popular road displayed at the moment is red, regardless of how popular it actually is.

My all time PR is not showing up on the leaderboard. Everything in my settings is turned on for everyone to see.  

i click on the segment, and it gives me the all-time top 10 leader board, but is there a way to compare to my top 10 best efforts?i cant even remember when the last time i did this route, or i would go back and select a previous date to compare this PRthanks

I record my run using strava on my phone, not using watch. During run (after 1km), the pace is "9 30". After I finished the run, the pace split in the activity log is "9 15". How can i fix this?

Hello,  I am new to Strava and trying to figure out if the premium version is worth it. I have previously used Nike Run Club. A couple of questions I need help with.. 1. can you view the heart rate zones on your Apple Watch whilst you are running? I know you can see the data after. Is it possible to see the time spent in each zone on Strava Apple Watch? 2. can you only see current pace if you have the premium version?

I am a Trails Coordinator in my city. I would like to create a contest for people to ride/run/walk a certain segment of trail. Each lap they do can count as a point, and perhaps the fastest time can count as some amount of bonus points. Each point is equivalent to an entry into a drawing, with the grand prize and a few secondary prizes being awarded at the end of the month. I want to do this for each month, rotating through some of our trails that don't see as much attention in order to help motivate folks to use them. If you completed the contest each month, you're eligible for a big end-of-year prize.In order to accomplish this, I need athletes to opt-in somehow (so only people aware of the contest are eligible for prizes), and I need to be able to see all of the opted-in athletes that completed the task, how many times they completed the task, and who did it fastest.It seems like the type of thing a "Challenge" might be able to achieve, but there's no avenue for me

I want to know, how many person can do the strava’s challenge ?

Buenas tardes Hace alrededor de un mes, cree un perfil en instagram para los fans del desnivel + . Despues pense en crear un reto en strava y poner a todos/as los fans del desnivel + y hacer como una liga. Hoy me veo en el problema que solo puedo poner 24 participantes, me gustaria poder poner mas participantes. o tendre d irma al Garmin conect por necesidad , que nonpor gustarme claro. Necesito que me ayudeis y me dejeis poner a todo el mundo en este reto y si hay que pagar algo se paga. TRANSLATION: Good afternoon About a month ago, I created an Instagram profile for fans of the unevenness + . Then I thought about creating a challenge on Strava and putting all the fans of the slope + and making it like a league. Today I have the problem that I can only put 24 participants, I would like to be able to put more participants Or I will have to sign the Garmin connected out of necessity, not because I like it of course.

Hi, I'm running a movement challenge event to run, ride, row, swim around Australia. Is it possible to set up a challenge to facilitate this with a big group to collectively map/track our distance

I created a group challenge to raise money for charity with my colleagues. The challenge has ended and I need to extend it because we haven’t quite hit the distance target. How do I do this?

Good afternoon; I am a Strava Subscriber; And I created a segment on the streets of my neighborhood that is a drawing of a Christmas Tree, and last year, we held an event together with my runner friends, for a solidarity training to collect boxes of chocolates to make up Christmas baskets. for needy families in my neighborhood, and each runner athlete donated one or more boxes of candy; It was a success, we collected more than 100 boxes; and this year we will repeat it, so I was wondering if there is the possibility of all the athletes who participate going full circle in the follow-up; publish on Strava (whether the athlete is a subscriber or not);

How can I create group challenge for 1000 athletes 

I have my own personal account and created a club for my hockey club (on my account). How do I create challenges on the club? I only have the option to create events but we want to create challenges in order to see who ran the most and who completed the most challenges.I am able to create group challenges but it is then linked to my profile and not the club.

I am about to celebrate 60 YO, and want to create a challenge for myself (1963km in 60 days) is it possible to create such a challenge on Strava where the app counts my km within the time frame?  Thank you all 

Hello, I've created a distance-based group challenge at work; however, I cannot add more than 25 participants.  If I subscribe to Strava, will that limit change?

Hi, I created a group challenge last year but the max number of participants I could add into a group challenge was (I think) 25. I therefore had to set up a few groups we had about 60 participators.I hope to run the same challenge again this July and just read that the max capacity per group has now been raised to 200? Is anyone able to confirm if this is correct? If so then great! - if not I’ll have to figure out another way of sorting the challenge so that everyone is in one group. 

Hi there, I recent got the app to try it out. I then tried to cancel the subscription before the annual subscription was taken out due to not really getting on with the app and have just seen that the money has still been taken from bank. Is there anyway I can please be refunded as tried to cancel the subscription before it purchased it for the year.
