What have you done to Heatmaps?  I do not care about businesses, or where other people have run, walked, or biked, and the new color selection interface does not allow basemap changes from the same interface (as it should).  Also, as I zoom out, the once-useful aggregation of workouts (showing a circle and number at scales where the actual paths get tiny and useless) is now gone.  Writing this as a cartographer, recent changes are not an improvement.  Is there a way to recover the old display mode?

Hello, one of my favourite functions in strava is to navigate with the perfect maps in combination with heatmaps. So I have an idea if a trail is practicable or not. When I can also see my personal heatmap I can see if the trail brings me to my familar tracks. For this procedure there is not a practical funktion in strava but to go to the "maps" funcion and go to segments or routes. Unfortunatly the map then is confusing due to the suggested routes or segments, which I do not need in my mentioned case. And the display is not shown fully in this feature. Is there a solution or funcion I do not know?

Olá,Meu marido está tentando trocar o endereço de e-mail e não consegue. No momento de realizar a assinatura foi **bleep** um e-mail genérico da Apple e não conseguimos alterar. Como podemos fazer isto? TRANSLATION: Hello, My husband is trying to change his email address and can't. When signing up, it was **bleep** a generic email from Apple and we were unable to change it. How can we do this?

ok, I’ll try this again. In my previous post I erroneously used the term BaseMap instead of FATMAP. SO…I downloaded FATMAP, but never got confirmation that it was linked to my Strava Premium. A couple of days later I deleted FATMAP and reinstalled. Now when I try to link the accounts, I get an error message stating that there is already a FATMAP account linked to my Strava. I can’t get past this point and therefore I have no way to download BaseMap routes to my account.My ultimate goal is to have the routes on my Garmin Edge 840, so if there is a workaround, I would welcome that as well. I did reach out to the Strava help desk. They replied asking me what my email was and then went radio silent to my further replies. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. 

Hey guys,I've been trying to link my strava account to the XOSS app and i can'tA red error message pops and can't link the app.Any Suggestions?

Strava seem to encourage users to self police segment leaderboards, however this is severely hampered by limits on the number of flags that can be raised on activities.I've tried to raise this issue via the ticket system, but each time my request is ignored and no feedback is provided.How do Strava expect users to perform this service if we can only flag a small number of invalid activities?If users don't have the tools to keep leaderboards clean and Strava won't perform this checking themselves how do they expect this task to be achieved?

I gave recently ridden a route in Dalby Forest, England.The segment is called get loose for Lewis. I rode the tarmac road near to it. Strava has twice recorded my ride on the road as a ride on the segment. I'm now K.O.M on a segment I didn't ride. I personally don't care about segments, but those who do will be quite pi..ed off at my false achievement knocking them further down the leaderboard. It's time the false recording of segments is tightened up for those who use it, and those that cheat deliberately, banned from using Strava.ADMIN, PLEASE ADDRESS THIS.   

Hola! Alguien sabe si hay manera de subir contenido multideporte como unica actividad y no todo por separado? Por ejemplo, un triatlon se sube como 5 actividades, nadar, transicion, bici, transicion y correr. Estaria bien subirlo como una sola, al menos en garmin si aparece como 1 actividad. TRANSLATION: Hello! Does anyone know if there is a way to upload multisport content as a single activity and not everything separately? For example, a triathlon involves 5 activities, swimming, transition, bike, transition and running. It would be good to upload it as one, at least on Garmin if it appears as 1 activity.

I have saved an activity from my Galaxy Watch 6, while on the watch it shows that the activity has been synced, on the phone app, there's a permanent display of "Processing Activity" showing up in my activity tab. I tried restarting my phone, login and out of the app, clearing cache on the phone, and tried resyncing on the phone, refreshing the activities by pulling down and it just won't disappear. While I already accepted the fact that activity has been loss, I wished the "Processing Activity" can at least be removed.  

today I ran a PR in my 10k and it didn’t show up. I’m not usually worried but there was a lot of hills and I could have quit but I didn’t lol any fix? 

Não está sincronizando entre o Strava e o VIK app.TRANSLATION: Not syncing between Strava and the VIK app.

Hello fellow sporty people,2 things before we start : 1) Happy New Year to all of you's - wishing you some miles and lots of smiles, 2) Pardon my English, trying my best here. 🙂 I've started last week my Paris Marathon preparation and for the last two weeks and potentiall due to the (in)famous WearOs tracking issue, Relative Effort and Progress charts seem off. Relative Effort : I've compared 2 very similar trainings I did, one this morning and one a couple of months ago - one gives me a 47 relative effort score, the second one (this morning) gives me a 15 score (while i reached a 175HR) ... Link to activity 1 : https://www.strava.com/activities/9670511769/overviewLink to activity 2 : https://www.strava.com/activities/10496892064/overvie

I'm trying to view my current pace during runs but can't find it on the display/in settings.Is there any way to view this during an activity? Or are there any recommended websites/apps?Thanks

Hello, not sure if this is the right place to post this but I’m new to Strava and was wondering how can I see other people’s activities in my area? I feel like I can’t see anyone’s activities and nobody can see mine, my privacy and settings are all set to everyone

On my last 3 rides, my Strava route shows that I ended my ride sooner than I actually did. I sync my Sigma ROX 11.0 bike computer to Strava and upload my data after each ride. My Sigma app shows that I did the full route, however, Strava seems to come up with a random endpoint. This is not a privacy setting since that appears grey when looking at my routes, this is actually a little checkered flag showing I ended my ride in a location that I did not. I have attached images of my Sigma route map and my Strava route map for your information. Sigma map: Strava map:

Hi! When I invite athlete to join our telegram chat and post a link to our telegram group (example removed for privacy) IN THE COMMENTS of his activity, strava crashes and request me to change the password

Just found that I could not upload any GPX files in the route maker since yesterday. It just said" There was a problem processing this request. Please try importing your file again or try another file". However, Those GPX files could be uploaded without any issues before. Has anyone experienced this problem?

Buongiorno. Mi piacerebbe avere una legenda di come sono segnate le strade per poter creare dei percorsi più precisi che non trovo sull'app. (Strade asfaltate... sterrate... sentieri... ) Chi può aiutarmi? Grazie. TRANSLATION: Good morning. I would like to have a legend of how the roads are marked to be able to create more precise routes that I can't find on the app. (Asphalt roads... dirt... paths... ) Who can help me? Thank you.

It would be nice to filter the import to certain activity types.For instance my walks are transferred to Strava and there I delete them.It would be much easier to exclude them from import.It is probably requested earlier, but I could not find it.

I recently started using strava again. When I woke up this morning I saw a friend had commented on my walk from last evening. When i went to go see it, my activity was not able to be viewed and an error was displayed. Strava also got rid of my walk from 2 days ago as well. If I do “search keyword” in the activities, I can see all of my activities listed (pic belo), but when I click into my most recent one, I get an error message. My friends also cannot see the disappeared activities on my profile. Has anyone seen this before?   

  Hello there.I need help to solve this issue: in my App, on the display runs, the pace (RP) no longer appears, only the elevation gain (see attached). How can I modify this and return to viewing the average pace? I've tried various methods, but without success.Thank you very much!Sincerely,Darlan Nunes  

I’ve been on leave and just logged on to give some kudos to some mates and nether the web nor app version of strava is showing any activity of any of the people I follow since 9 May.   I’ve been inactive but I’m pretty sure everybody else just didn’t stop exercising because I was in Italy eating gelato!

Hi There is it possible to place an ad for a mtb race on strava . Tks 

I really like the Relative Effort feature on Strava as I feel it helps with motivation. However, a couple of weeks back I did a Lactate Threshold Heart Rate (LTHR) test and following this I adjusted my HR zones using the newly calculated LTHR. Since then it seems that the RE figures for my activities are quite a bit lower although I don't feel like I am working any less hard. Is this because of the change to my zones? The RE graph currently suggests I am working below average at the moment (very demotivating). Do I just have to wait for the average to sort itself out?

I can still see all the data (elevation chart, HR chart, cadence chart, etc.) on the web version of Strava, but the "View Analysis" button has disappeared from the phone app. Friends of mine can still see this when they view my workout, but I don't have an option to do this anymore on my phone.I upgraded my iPhone to v.17.5.1 yesterday afternoon and I have a feeling that this triggered a bug in the Strava iPhone app. I have deleted the app (and data) then reinstalled it but problem remains. Any other ideas?
