Dear Strava team,I also have this thing that creating posts is temporarily disabled. Even though I understand that some groups/clubs don´t want to be ´spammed´ (even if I post something just one time) and have the post removed (what I can understand) I think it´s not a good thing to simply ban people. I pay a 100 bucks per year. I think that it should be fair to be able to post something in a club/group that you follow. At least, as long as it is about the topic that you are in (eg. you are a marathon runner who is organizing his own marathon around your town, you should be able to post your marathon on all marathon runner groups that you can find, sure if you post it every single day 5 times then those posts should be easily removable as well by the group admins). Being flagged as ´suspicious behavior´ or so is extremely childish. If I would be an admin I would simply comment on the post that ´we don´t accept such posts´ or something similar. Without flagging somebody or wha

If I save something as "Walk" it will be translated to "Spaziergang" in the German GUI. As "Spaziergang" is only a stroll or some other leisurely walk it's a bit demeaning to everybody who walks at a brisk pace to work or some other destinations. Please just use the direct translation "Gehen" instead, that includes everything from a stroll to a sportive walk!

I usually work outside with the galaxy watch 4 without my smartphone. and it used to draw a map 3 days ago. but it hasn't drawn a map for 2days. I ran the same route. I pressed the start button as usual. but I don't why the map hasn't been displayed for the past two days.   anybody helps?

Why does speed scale disappear from the map on kitesurf trips? Would be great to see the speed over different parts of the kite session on the map... Thanks

Hello, I’m using "exercises" app on Apple Watch for my swimming sessions. Everything works perfectly, but when I import this one into Strava, it appears but without putting the realised distance...🤷🏻‍♂😞. Does an adjustment have to be made for this to appear?? Thank you for your return

Hello, j'ai vu qu'il existait une fonction flyover qui a l'air pas mal du tout. Quelqu'un sait-il comment l'activer? La personne qui me l'a montrée l'a vu apparaître par hasard sur son menuTRANSLATION: Hello, I saw that there was a flyover function which doesn't look bad at all. Does anyone know how to enable it? The person who showed it to me saw it appear on their menu by chance

When viewing activities with long numbers (such as https://www.strava.com/activities/9328019809), the text overflows outside the border. See attachment.

Dear colleaguesKindly ask you if you think about to include the following feature request in any of your upcoming software updates. I used to do only one athletic session everyday I run and usually when I do on track I use diferent pair of trainers, one for warm up, other for intervals and depends on the day even spikes.I like to know how many kilometres are in my different trainers but Strava has not the option to assign different kilometres per trainers in one activity,  I only have the option to choose only one pair. So, could be feasible somehow to include this functionality sometime?Thanks in advance

I have one route on my account, I can't delete it, why ?ThanksJ  

I just recently connected strava to apple health and allowed sharing between the apps.  All my strava activites were synced back August 23 but nothing before that.  

I am a top speed/racewalker , but also top runner for 50 years, speed walking  is on the same level as speed running, and the elements the same as what my Garmin is recording. But Strava only calls it commuting and limit the analysis of our training, please make it the same analysis as running!! It's not much to change, I just want to see how far my walking was as well as heartrate, cadence  Regards 

Bonjour à tous je constate depuis plusieurs mois, sur les challenges marche, des activités frauduleuses qui faussent le classement général, voire même celui du pays.  En effet, il est simple de signaler une activité frauduleuse en le signalant, mais comment faire avec des comptes bloquer où l'on doit avoir l'aval de la personne pour voir ses trajets ? Ces personnes ne devraient pas pouvoir être intégrer aux challenges, la vérification est impossible et le classement complétement fausser. Ce classement est une source de motivation pour bon nombre d'athlètes, il serait souhaitable d'étudier cet aspect des choses pour une éthique sportive plus adaptée.   TRANSLATION: Hello everyone, For several months, I have noticed fraudulent activities on the walking challenges which distort the general ranking, and even that of the country. Indeed, it is simple to report fraudulent activity by reporting it, but how can we do this with blocke

Hi, I’ve imported a 30 k running session. But can you explain why 30k effort segment doesn’t appear in my feed???Thanks for your help 

Three apps you love, working together like never before. Now you can connect Nike Run Club (NRC) and Nike Training Club (NTC) accounts to Strava. Any workout you log with NRC or NTC will upload to your Strava profile so you can keep track of your workouts in one place and make sure your community sees them all. To start collecting even more kudos and encouragement for your hard work, just head to the Nike Run Club and Nike Training Club apps and follow these steps:👉 In your NRC and NTC profiles, select Settings👉 Select Partners👉 Select Strava👉 Allow Nike to link with Strava ✨👉 Log in to Strava (if prompted)👉 Tap to authorize connectionP.S. If you’re not already a member, join Nike's Club on Strava for inspiration and guidance from Nike’s world-class a

There are many hidden gems among segments that are nearly impossible to discover unless you happen so see them in someone's ride or run. That is how I discovered many of my most favorite segments. Some segments are more like virtual races or FKTs - they are long and may take an hour to a few hours to finish. You'd never see a segment like that in Segment Explorer for the following reasons:1) Segment explorer only shows 10 most popular segments for any given area.2) The selected area must include both the segment start and the segment finish3) Long segments would show up only when you zoom the map out. But zooming the map out also includes a lot of other segments, that are very likely to be more popular. In general shorter segments are more popular because more people are likely to match them.Basically that keeps longer segments nearly invisible. Furthermore the existing filter for running segments only allows to select flat segment

I along with some other members of Strava’s Club Organizer Network (link) have submitted forms to have our clubs verified but have yet to hear anything from the Strava team - is there a standard ETA for this process as it was many weeks since an application was made. My Club ID is CPFR (https://www.strava.com/clubs/CPFR) and i would appreciate if someone could help to review the application and verify my club.

I've just done a ride in Europe over 14 days that took me to 9 countries. I'd like to connect all fourteen rides so I can see the complete route that I took. Does Strava have the capability to link rides in this way?Thanks for any help you can give me,Chris

I use Strava to record my walks, using my phone.Ride Auto-Pause is enabledRun Auto-Pause is disabled (as it suggests to enable this only if one runs).When my walk pauses, Strava does not pause recording.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Is there a way around this?I might try enabling the "Run Auto-Pause" feature despite the suggestion.Thank you.

When creating route by GPX file import, discipline type is set automaticly as Run. (earlier was normaly Ride).When changed to Ride route is total changed as route builder want to connect points using existing (known by Strava) roads.Just after GPX upload: Route after changing discipline to Ride:

HiCould Strava make it easy to connect activities. E.g I went for a ride on Saturday but while I was having a cuppa at my favourite cafe my Garmin watch stopped saving that part of my ride. I continued on realised my watch had stopped so re started it. At the end I saved this part of my ride. So my 40mile ride was uploaded as two rides. I tried to figure out how I could connect these two rides to make 1 ride, but sadly I couldn't. This has happened a number of times. It would be really helpful if I could join easily join them together ☺️

I've been facing an issue recently that's left me a bit puzzled. I completed a challenging 100K ride and logged it on Strava. However, when I saved the activity, the map disappeared, and I couldn't see any track. What's even more frustrating is that this happened to me not just once, but twice. Curiously, I decided to conduct a trial ride for less than 1KM yesterday, and it worked perfectly—the map showed up in the results as expected. I've been a loyal user of this app for over two years, and this issue has never occurred before. It's quite perplexing and disheartening. please help

I have looked  and cannot and find it. It would be great to sincro your dive logs from garmin (or any other brand) or even adding it manualy, adding some fictures such us: Type of Air, gear, water temperature, dive time, bottom time, maximum depth, etc.. (this data can be sincronized from your device to make it easier or manualy filling it)
