When a Privacy Zone is configured around a home location, the activity track is correctly hidden and the start and end points are moved outside of the defined zone.However, if an image is uploaded to the activity, the image is displayed on the map based on its embedded GPS metadata. If the photo was taken inside the Privacy Zone, the image marker remains visible at its original location.As a result, other users cannot see the activity track inside the Privacy Zone, but can still see the exact position of the image. This behavior can indirectly reveal the user’s home address or other sensitive locations.From a privacy perspective, image locations should respect Privacy Zones in the same way as activity tracks. Steps to Reproduce Create a Privacy Zone around a home address. Record an activity that starts or ends within the Privacy Zone. Take one or more photos inside the Privacy Zone.

Until recently, when I edited a route, I could click on the small blue dots representing public photos and they would display instantly. For several weeks now, I’ve been getting a loading icon that spins indefinitely, regardless of the quality of the internet connection.Has anyone else had the same issue and managed to resolve it?

How can I connect to an interval timer with stravadoes stava have such a thing? please help  

We just had a mountain bike race last night.  Apparently, a bunch of us had our rides auto-flagged because the system thought they were e-bike rides.  When I first looked at my ride in the mobile app, I saw a box at the top that asked me to clarify if it was an e-bike ride (ride had been flagged already).  At least it gave me an option to select “ride” at that point and it was all good for me.  For a number of others (see the links below), they did not get the notification as far as they were aware, but their rides were auto-flagged.  This was just a normal MTB race on our local trails.  We are not pro-level riders, so the efforts shouldn’t appear that extraordinary.  Heck, I don’t even think we were taking any KOMs/QOMs with the efforts, so it wasn’t even a comparison to existing times on segments.  It appears the new auto-flagging system is too sensitive if it is catching that many people in a single event that are all clearly legitimate, even with heart rate data to support it.

Is the option to flag a ride still a feature.  I looked today and it seemed that the option is gone?

Is there an easy way to get Strava to suggest multiple routes between points A and B? Between two points there are always multiple ways to get from A to B, some being easier than others, either longer, shorter, more or less elevation, surface conditions (offroad to gravel to road) etc etc. It would be good to see the choice. Strava doesnt give any options. With options, this would allow creating a route with a different inbound route to the outward route. 

As Strava has been working to expand the Fatmap engine to web, I want to make this post to point out the things it does decently, mostly misses the mark on, and really needs to do better at. I use Firefox on a Windows machine to inform my experience. I’m using an activity from a friend as examples and the opinions may not apply to other sports since cycling is my main type.Activity Overview:Map window should still be resizable. Edit: JS workaround by ​@E995a1ad You cannot scroll to zoom while hovering over a photo (scrolls the whole page). Ideally the photo is exactly where you want to zoom into. Geolocated photos should be

I am the owner/admin of a local running club.   The membership is by invite only, the requirement is that you must be a member of the real running club.On a weekly basis I copy the weekly data so that our club has historical data of previous weeks.   As a result of that, year-to-date leaderboards are produced.There is one slight problem.   The desktop version of groups limits the leaderboard to 100 members.   If the group has more than 100 members in the week that completed runs, the additional members are not shown.Can this be addressed?

Hello, is it possible to export a list from all users who gave me on my activity a kudo?

Hi,I like the newly generated training plans feature that was just released. It is very much what I need!They are, however, unusable for me on my bike as I use a Wahoo head-unit.Is it planned to be able to sync the routes/plans to head-units? Or how is the feature supposed to be used on a bike? At the moment I use Training Peaks plans but would like to consolidate on Strava. 

Hi my daughter can change the colour of her route to purple with a slogan saying "this girl can". How can I change colours. ? I just get these options. Thanks  

Hi guys, I have a family subscription which will be automatically renewed on the 27 Jan. For this new year a new member will join and one existing memeber is not interested in keeping the premium, so my question is: if I remove the member from the family today, will he be premium until the 26th and the 27 I’ll see the empty slot, or do I need to take care to do this on the 26th because otherwise I will eat up the last days of his/her premium family subscription? thanksLuca

We have three users at home, all three with Samsung Galaxy phones. Opening the app via Wi-Fi works very quickly for one user. For the other two, it takes a very long time to open the app. It works very quickly for these two users via 4G. What could be the problem?

I recently got a new Amazfit 6 and recorded a treadmill run. Initially, the distance was off, so I calibrated the run to match the treadmill distance. After calibration, the Zepp app shows the correct distance and pace, matching the treadmill exactly. However, once the activity syncs to Strava, the distance is reduced, which results in an incorrect pace, even though the total time remains correct. This suggests that Strava is overriding or recalculating the treadmill distance instead of using the calibrated value provided by the device/app. Is there a way to ensure that Strava uses the original calibrated treadmill distance from Zepp for indoor runs, or any setting/workaround to prevent this recalculation?

When I check my segment times on the mobile app it uses my PR as the time on all the different options such as Men, Age Groups, This Year, My Results, I'm Following. When I filter by Weight Group then the segment time is no longer my PR but my second fastest time usually. I'm just curious about the logic being applied. Though when I use the browser based version it shows the correct segment times.

On 01/05 and 01/07 I recorded my Indoor Cycle activity on my Apple Watch Series 8 and these synched to my Strava with no problem.  Today (01/13) my Indoor Cycle activity on my Apple Watch Series 8 will not synch with Strava. I have tried suggested solutions but no joy.Is there an outage at Strava?Why does the auto-synching suddenly stop when I have undertaken no updates or changed any settings?Is there a manual way to upload activity without purchasing another iPhone Health App (e.g., HealthFit)?Thank you. 

Dear Strava,  I know when I have completed an activity, I don’t need a notification for every activity, please turn these spam notifications off. 

In the last few days, when I start a Strava Watch activity on my Apple Watch Ultra, the activity does not actually start unless I keep the watch app up and going in the watch face for the full 3-2-1 countdown.  This has led to missed miles and time and is irritating new behavior; I usually notice it has happened only when Apple Workout asks me if I want to start something some time in.Anyone else seeing this/know how to change it back to the way it used to work? 

Corri 21 quilômetros e o Strava simplesmente sumiu com minha atividade. Era minha primeira meia maratona, ficou carregando e depois SUMIU. 

When will there be an option for weekly goal setting to automatically increase? For example weekly mileage to increase by 10% weekly.

I started using Strava in the summer of 2010 when the Whister Granfondo came to town and I had to buy a bike and start training. No Garmin, HRM, or power meter to start. Much more raw (and sometimes more enjoyable 🤣)One feature that Strava took away that I miss every day, is the ability to track distance and elevation when doing an activity on foot that is NOT a run. My wife and I power walk and hike about 3,000-4,000km a year and climb about 100,000m in the process. Unless it's recorded as a "Run" I can't track my yearly accomplishments and reach my target. Every bike ride counts, even when people coast to the park with their toddler. Unfortunately Strava has made some value judgement that says only runs can be counted and tallied up. Such a shame. If they (re)allowed the tracking of all foot activities, I think the Strava community would grow significantly. Strava wants to be so "inclusive" all the time, except for those who aren't runners

I used to type in 'ramp' to search for all my older ramp tests for comparison, now rides with rain in the title come up as well....as well as other 'near' matches and some I can't figure out why they appear! Very annoying. I'm sure it used to list them in chronological order but no longer does. 

My Stats on Strava are lame.  In the web browser view, Strava does not offer the option to show combined stats for all TYPES of activities. The only option Strava makes available are statistics each year by activity type, so Hike, Run, Swim or Bike individually.If a user wants correct statistics, we need to to manually input and calculate totals across all activity types that we are recording. There needs to be the ability for the user to combine types to get accurate readings by year and by all time.

Anyone know what has caused this issue?Splits on Strava are all over the place, while the summary in Strava is correct. This was on a treadmill with the Apple Watch directly synced to the treadmill. Strava added 1.1km in the splits compared to the Apple Watch splits which are correct.   

The past few times I’ve done a treadmill run synced to my Apple Watch, the splits show up completely different when imported to Strava. See my interval training from today: the Apple splits are correct, but Strava has them WAY slower. Is there a way to fix this?
