Hi!I am an active runner who frequently travels to different neighborhoods and cities to explore new routes and segments on the island. As I’ve starred more segments over time, I’ve found that my "Starred Segments" list has become difficult to manage and navigate.I would love to see a feature that allows users to organize or color-code starred segments by area, city, or custom "folders."The Problem: Currently, all starred segments are in one long list. When I drive to a specific neighborhood to run, I have to scroll through my entire history to find the segments relevant to that specific location. (I try to unstarr and star so it can be arranged by city but it’s tedious)Proposed Solution: Color-Coding: Allow users to assign a color to a starred segment (e.g., Blue for "City A," Red for "City B"). These colors could then appear as different colored stars on the "Maps" tab.

Posting this here as I cannot find the “Ideas” category anymore as in the instructions.As a user, I want to see the selected segment hightlighted in the map and profile of a route or activity regardless of how low in the list the segment is.Segments are highlighted in the route and profile of an activity or saved route. However, if the list of segment is long and the page requires scrolling, the map view is also scrolled up and one cannot see the map anymore when hightliighting a segment.This could be fixed by locking the map and elevation profile view and scrolling the segment list as a separate element.

Hello Strava Support Team,I hope you are doing well.I would like to request a refund for a recent subscription purchase made on my account. Below are the details:Subscription: Strava (1-Year Plan)Amount: ₱1,500.00Date & Time: March 17, 2026, 8:38 PMPayment Method: GCash (via Google Play)I did not intend to purchase this subscription, and it was made accidentally. I have already canceled the subscription shortly after noticing the charge, and I have not made use of the premium features.For your reference, I have attached a screenshot of the transaction and subscription details.I kindly ask for your consideration in processing a refund for this charge. I would really appreciate your help with this matter.Thank you for your time and understanding.Sincerely,John Henry S. Gavilaga

I have one question and would love to hear your thoughts on it.Would it be possible to introduce Season Records or One‑Year Records in addition to the existing Personal Records?Here’s why: Many active people are getting older, starting families, or simply have less training time. Their all‑time best performances often lie years in the past and are no longer realistically reachable. It would be highly motivating to have seasonal or yearly best achievements—for example on segments or specific activities—clearly visible as well.A dedicated badge or a visually distinct indicator, separate from lifetime Personal Records, would be perfectly sufficient.

Hello Strava CS,I’d like to share a few suggestions that I believe could improve the overall user experience on Strava. I really enjoy using the app and hope you find these ideas helpful.I use Strava to track my cycling activities, and the heart rate monitoring works very well, which I really appreciate.I also use the Dexcom G7 to continuously monitor my glucose levels. However, this data is not currently displayed on my Apple Watch while using Strava.It would be very helpful if glucose data could be integrated and displayed within the app interface (for example, in the data fields shown on the screen).Additionally, I would appreciate the option to keep the Strava activity display as the primary screen on the Apple Watch, instead of automatically showing the small map view, which I personally find less useful during rides.Thank you for your time and support!Viet

I am using Boat smart watch and on the app it is mentioned that it can be synced with Strava and Googlefit. The activity however is not getting synced with strava. Same activity i can check in googlefit which is synced. Need clarity.

My Strava activity has not uploaded to the app from garmin, its on the website but not listed in the activity section but when I try and upload a file it’ll say it’s a duplicate and I can source it from there.also it is saying that my elapsed time is 196 hours which is obviously wrong I want the stats in my Strava app pls help

Hi, I just got automatic payment without my permission and was wondering if I can get a refund, I had subscribed the year before and forgot to unsubscribe and now I've lost a lot of money.

Hey I love strava and I use it to track all my runs, it’s so accurate and it’s great. As someone who does showjumping professionally and rides out horses on gallops I think it would be amazing if they added an option to track my rides. I understand if it would be too hard to do because its a very specific movement, but just tracking the speeds and location would be super. 

I subscribe to Strava primarily because I enjoy the route builder. That alone makes it worth the monthly cost. But I have to say, I HATE the little picture bubbles all over the map. When im creating a route, I want to see the roads only. Every little intersection that im interested in has someone else picture blocking the view. This is enough of an annoyance that I am considering cancelling the subscription and just moving over to RGPS. Could you please just make some kind of toggle or something so we can close those pictures? What even is the point??Also…. I must add, your customer support, for subscribers, is atrocious. Seriously….

I created my strava account in 2020 through facebook. My facebook was created with an email I do not have access to.  Strava is not letting me change my email. I am worried that I am going to be locked out of my strava account. Please advise. Thanks.

Hi:) I would like add raves as an activity. Objectively it is quite a good sport analogy, especially good for endurance:) people who do races are also very very sporty and most of them do at least running or weightlifting. I believe adding races as an activity for Strava will be an amazing boost for community as well. 

Strava requires Ebike users to create their own new segments rather than just mirror (non-Ebike) segments across for ebikes. This results in Ebike users selecting Bike Ride rather than Ebike Ride. For the majority, this is so they get the “main” benefit of Strava, see their performance on segments they regularly travel.I’d hazard a guess that a small percentage of users ever create segments on Strava. It seems a bit ridiculous for Strava to want Ebike users to recreate segments for Ebikes when they tend to travel on the same routes and (Bike) rides as other users.It seems like Strava has historically focused on the negative case - users who are trying to game the system by using Ebikes/Cars on Bike segements (or just standard bikes on running segments) - and completely ignored a customer use–case.

I’m creating an MTB course. It always takes creazy uphill trails (unirdebles) so I have to use almost manual mode or Road clicling (but hen I do not see my MTB heatmap). Ok it’s a shit but I use manual mode. But I still have issues: many times it add a virtual point far away (out of the state) this make impossible to use the route maker.See this example:https://www.strava.com/routes/3468208140853325340It was working much better before they added MTB ode (years ago)

Please, We need to Indoor (pool) swim workout for Wear OS app 

Is the Wear OS Strava tile customizable? I think not for now. However, customizability would make our lives easier. We really want to see this improved.

Hello, I would like to propose a suggestion to add as a sport: horseback riding. This will avoid having to select a sport that has nothing to do with it, and will allow us to have GPS/duration tracking, and to plan our activities. It would be practical and therefore will favor to take the plane because all sports will be grouped (so those already present on STRAVA, plus riding), and will avoid paying a subscription to another app for the monitoring of our horseback activities Thank you 🤞🤞

Hi. Since Instant Workouts was launched, I’ve had the notification for them on my profile landing page. Frankly it’s annoying as I have a coach and amnot interested in this. The notification wastes “real estate” on the profile page so can you please have a toggle on or off button for it or a way for it to move off the profile banner once you’ve read it?! 

half the time when i try to resume a workout if im doing intervals i accidentally tap the finish button instead of resume because it takes up most of the screen

Hi,(Not sure this is the right space for suggestions/requests, but here goes).It would be nice if I could have Birding as an activity instead of grouping it under ‘Walking’, There are a lot of us birders out there, and you could have some pretty cool challenges too. As an aside, it would create interesting splits between elapsed and moving times. I found out today that about 1/3 of my birding time is standing around! Not sure if you partner or collab, but the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, the Audubon Society and any number of global/national/regional birding organizations/groups might be interested. Personally, I’d like to have it a separate ‘sport’ so that it doesn’t mix up my walking stats. Although on that note ‘Dog Walking’ would be nice too - my old doggo is only a little faster than my birding! Thanks,Alison W. 

Alpine ski being included in both yearly elevation goals without the option of being able to click more than one sport at once, with the exception of off-road sports, all ride, all run, is pretty frustrating. It feels like a different track because it’s not human powered. Is there a fix for this besides just stopping recording alpine skiing and deleting the old ones?  thank you!! 

Hello,I have a question regarding the display of multisport activities on Strava. Currently, when I complete a triathlon or a duathlon, the activities appear individually in my feed.I would like to point out that Garmin Connect already offers a unified view for these events, showing the entire course and global stats in one place.Is there a way to have a similar display on Strava? If not, are there plans to allow a unified map and summary for multisport events in the future? It would be much more convenient to see the global performance in one window, just like on Garmin.Thank you for your help

Can anyone help, I did a 5km run on the treadmill and it has recorded the correct distance but has only given me 3.7km splits. I’ve attached photos of my Strava screen, and of my watch. It has imported from my watch which has the correct number of splits.  

Please add elapsed (total) time to the cycling activity summary in the feed, e.g.:distance · time · elevation gainThis would let users understand their and others’ rides without opening every single activityThe feed stats currently only shows distance and elevation gain. There’s clearly space for it, other activities get three stats. Without time there’s hardly any context for a ride, two 20km rides can be totally different. It’s so hard to get to too, you have to open the activitiy, then scroll several screens down, it is absolutely painful.
