For example, in my training today, it says the temperature was 23ºC. This temperature doesn't make any sense! The information should be the average temperature during the activity, or the maximum and minimum. I ran with a final sensation of 29ºC, but Strava says it felt like 23ºC. How can I solved it?

Good afternoon, I'm afraid I accidentally subscribed to the Strava app. When I opened the app, I accidentally clicked on the subscription because I thought it was a free trial because I wanted to try and explore your app's features. However, today (October 15, 2025) I received a text notification message from my account saying that I had made a transaction, when in fact it was not, it was an accident due to my own misunderstanding. I investigated my problem and found I was not alone. Today, I canceled my subscription and tried to submit a refund ticket. I searched the internet and social media for information about the procedure. So, I decided to contact you and try to consider my refund request because the money is the remaining money for my living expenses until the end of this October and I really need it back. I beg and hope that you grant my request as soon as possible, and thank you very much.

Very confusing set up for challenges.  I can't find my challenge I set up and people I invited can't see the challenge.  The challenge day has come and I can't find it anywhere or a leaderboard.

When searching your activities on the mobile app, search results are returned in non-chronological order. When I do interval workouts, I will leave a note in the "private notes" section stating the type of interval I did. When I go to "My Activities", before executing a search the activities are listed in chronological order. Once a search is executed, say for "intervals" I get back all of the proper results, but the order of them is all over the place. I believe they should still be in chronological order. Thank you! Also the little auto save statement for this text box should probably be in my local time. Its not. Just saying.

Dear Strava Team,I am writing to express my disappointment regarding the recent change in your platform requiring users to subscribe to Runna in order to access training plans—something that was previously included as part of the Strava experience.As a paying Strava subscriber, I have valued the platform not just for activity tracking, but also for the useful features that supported my fitness goals—training plans being one of them. Moving this functionality behind an additional paywall feels like a step backward. It’s disheartening to now be asked to pay extra for a service that was once part of the core value of my Strava subscription.While I understand the business decision to partner with Runna and expand premium offerings, I believe core training plans should remain accessible to paying Strava members without requiring a separate subscription.Please reconsider this approach or at the very least provide a basic tier of training plans within the standa

Hi Strava Community,I’m using an iPhone 14 to record my Strava runI always observe that my distance is always longer than my friend on the same courseFor exemple : this WE I ran “20km de Paris”, my Strava dispay 20,92km instead of 20km !It’s a huge error around 5% If I try to correct it by strava it’s worst with 22km ! I shared with you all my gpx file, maybe it can help to understand and I hope find a solutionThanksLoïc 

Hello to evereyonesomeone can tell me how I should proceed if I want signale a dishonest Strava user? Unfortunately, the Strava user in question has blocked me, and I cannot access his activities. The person in question is over 70 (!) years old and rides his modified Specialized E-Tarmac on our segments, stealing the KOMs. Several Strava users have already tried to block the person, but no one can access his profile.Greetings, Stephan  

Strava added the flyover option for sharing a few months ago, and now it seems to be the default share option. If I want to share just the map version of the activity to Instagram, it changes it to portrait orentiation and cuts off large parts of the activity, making it unusable. It used to share the map version of the activity as a square on the Instagram story. Both my apps are updated to the current version. How can I share just the map version of the activity and have it look like normal? Is there a way to set the map version as my default share option? I generally don’t want to share the flyover/video version of my activity.

the latest lawsuit from Strava against Garmin is just another example of why I’m so glad I cancelled my Strava subscription 2 years ago. I don’t miss it and this latest lawsuit is why I continue to tell my friends who still have a subscription that they should cancel.

100% reproducible. Uploading a rowing activity correctly shows the distance in meters. Editing the workout changes it to miles. It also changes the workout type from rowing to workout.  solution: workaround that’s also 100% reproducible: change the workout type to anything else and save. Then change it back to rowing and save. Miles are changed back to meters.  would love to see this fixed. Thanks!

There is a user who has joined nearly every Strava Club. with very few exceptions everyone of his rides is recorded on a supposed Turbo Trainer, with no supporting evidence that he has completed the activity claimed. no link to Zwift or similar. He claims rides and distances that are simply not credible. recently he recorded two rides in one morning, for which there were simply insufficient hours to manage it. I have raised with Strava admin. who simply ignore the problem, other than to suggest his rides be flagged.  Any suggestions as to how to deal with such a cheat?

Hi Strava Community,I recently went on my first ride with Nova, my new e-bike. It marked a meaningful step in my journey with dystonia, a neurological condition that’s reshaped how I move through the world. Cycling has always been part of my identity, and transitioning to an e-bike wasn’t giving up, it was choosing to keep going.But when I got home and checked my Strava stats, I noticed something that genuinely hurt: the miles weren’t counted. Not toward my annual mileage. Not toward my lifetime totals. Not toward the story I’ve been building with every ride.I understand the need to separate e-bike rides from segments and leaderboards. That distinction protects competitive integrity. But excluding e-bike miles from all ride statistics feels like erasure. For those of us riding with adaptive needs, whether due to disability, aging, injury, or simply a new way of moving, it’s not about competition. It’s about being seen. It’s about honoring the effort it

https://www.strava.com/activities/11239201596Hello everyone,Yesterday I made a really hard effort and I broke my record for 3 segments listed in the picture above which are excluded for me. On 2 segments, I didn't even take the KOM, so I don't see why my result is excluded for those 3 segments, while the results for the other segments are included. You can review the entire ride and see that everything is fine.My HRM wasn't working because the battery ran out on my Garmin. You can see from all my previous rides that I use it, and it's not my intention to cheat or do anything suspicious, but to enjoy riding and achieve good results.I use Strava because I love segments, leaders, personal records, KOMs, but it feels like

A friend of mine can't login to his Strava anymore and we think it is because of an inappropriate comment (joke) from his account to mine, that was reported. He did not receive any message of being banned or suspended but still can't login. Is there any way to discern being temporarily suspended from being perma banned? I can still see his account and activities but he gets a message of not being authorized to login when he tries it. 

My avticites is not upploding to Strava from Garmin since the last update at Wednesday.

My activites is not uploading to Strava from Garmin since the last update at Wednesday. Neither when they are connected. I have tried everything and it is not working/uploaded to Strava.

Is it just me or is this new map and route creating interface on the app terrible! It’s so sad, I enjoyed how it worked before. Now the new layers and historic heat maps don’t work and the routes it generates when you create a route takes u all the wrong directions on a well trodden path. I feel like unsubscribing 😿

Hi, I am unable to create new club events since yesterday (everything was working well before that). I can enter all the informations in the New Event form, then nothing happens when I click on Create Event. I have tried using different computers (PC vs iOS) and cellphone, different browsers, login/logout and nothing works. Did I reached a maximum of club events or is there something I can do to fix that? Thank you! 

I have been using my Samsung Galaxy Watch together with Samsung Health on the phone, and syncronizing sessions to Strave for many years. Always getting the pulse data also to sync, but not the last session. I do not know of any changes during the last week, between a session with pulse data, and the latest one without.Have anyone else out there faced a similar problem, and if so, what did you do to fix it?

Hi everyone, please help me how to get refund on Strava. I'm struggling to reach them. I lost 1,500 pesos because of auto deduction. That money is for my medicine. I am sick and I need that money.

Why isn't cyclocross a type of ride in Strava? Does anyone know a workaround? 

When I finish a ride on strave and save , it adds double the mileage ie if I do a 40 mile ride and save it.then it will add 80 miles in my total for year. Any suggestions  anyone.Thanks Dave H

I have a main account and an account I don’t use. There are roughly three recent workouts I’d like to move to my main account, before deleting my other account. Is this possible?

My Strava runs are being auto populated with the Garmin titles whereas before it would just be morning run, evening run etc. does anyone know how to turn this off and go back to the generic titles?
