Hallo zusammen,ich habe ein Problem mit meiner Garmin Fenix 6X Pro in Verbindung mit Strava, das ich nicht lösen kann:Ich bin vor ein paar Tagen 9,7 km gejoggt. In Garmin Connect wird alles korrekt angezeigt (Distanz, Zeit, Pace usw.).Sobald die Aktivität aber nach Strava synchronisiert wird, zeigt Strava nur 3,4 km an – also deutlich zu wenig. Die Zeit passt aber komischerweise.Was ich schon probiert habe: Automatische Synchronisation zu Strava deaktiviert und die FIT-Datei manuell aus Garmin Connect exportiert → Fehler bleibt! Export als GPX und TCX getestet → die Distanz ist auch hier nicht korrekt. Firmware der Uhr ist auf dem neuesten Stand, Garmin Connect und Strava App ebenfalls. Kein zweites Gerät oder Drittanbiet

Hi from Sweden 😀🇸🇪☀️ I often run structured workouts with intervals (e.g. 6×1000m) created in Garmin, and sync them to Strava. However, the displayed average pace always includes warm-up, rest, and cool-down, which makes it misleading if I want to analyze or share the workout’s true effort. Feature request: Please add an option to calculate and show average pace for selected laps – or even better, average pace for structured intervals, separated from total workout average. This would really improve Strava’s usefulness for interval training! Thanks! claes

Hi still not able to upload a triathlon I competed in on 2nd June .. every thing since then Is fine .. swims runs and rides .. as previously stated I have tried all the common fixes to no avail .. any thoughts ideas please ?? Obviously it's not a disaster but like to keep tabs on myself regards Stu . 

My treadmill runs do not reliably create the transparent overlay share image. It is always hit or miss. I am using a Garmin Epix G2Pixel Pro 9 XLI have tried attaching photos, and changing pretty much every option of the saved workout but it doesnt create the transparent image. 

I've been requesting a refund for about 7 days now and no developer responded to my ticket?, and the bad part is when i check my ticket in strava it's says "Status: Solved" howw? i didn't even get an refund? and strava support didn't explain how my ticket status is solved?. 

Hi all, here's my situation:I'm going on a week long hiking trip in Swedish Lapland. During the week, I will have very limited and unreliable internet access, meaning I probably won’t be able to synch my activities. Also, when not hiking I'll be turning off my phone to save its battery. This probably comes down to recording my hike every day, not being able to upload because of no internet, then turning off the phone. The process repeats for six days. Will Strava be able to save the six activities offline, locally on my phone, even if I turn it off repeatedly, and then synch all activities once I do have proper internet at the end of the week?

Recording defaults the map to track your direction, except due to natural GPS variations it is gimbling all over the place. Yes I can press the compass, but it refuses to stay on North. Every pause, by me or autopause dismisses my North preference and swings the map around again. Bad now, but in winter with gloves on this would be supremely annoying.Then we have Live Segment tracking. The dismiss button is gone. So if I am approaching two start points close together I can't dismiss segment A to show segment B. And then when tracking starts the head to head vs PB/KQOM does not pop, I have to press the screen again after the segment starts, very annoying if I am sprinting for a short segment. And the segment name is in black in red, making it hard to read.The screen should not be ‘needy,’ I should not have to be pressing it so much to keep it in the orientation I want. Please revert or return these features. Des

 Same issue as the one I’ve linked here, but that post is 2/3 years old.

I made a mistake trying to use my Wellhub gifted premium membership. I ended up applying it to one email which also happens to be an old account, but not the one I am currently using. I want to transfer the premium to my current active account instead but the code expires and a new one only issues every 6 months.  

I did several climb segments on dead-end asphalt roads yesterday on a 7kg-ish road bike and noted that my times were beaten by riders who had continued past the end of the metalled road and on to mountain trails. These folk were obviously not on road bikes because of the terrain they encountered later in their rides and I can’t believe many people would be able to ride an unassisted MTB up a climb as fast as a lightweight road bike. What else did these segment times have in common? They had no HR or power data. I’m not necessarily in favour of disallowing rides without power data as many can’t warrant the cost of buying a power meter but surely HR data should be a minimum requirement of a segment time? I’m 63-years old and if I get a top ten time on a hilly segment I’m pretty happy with myself as it normally means an all-out effort. It can be pretty demoralising to discover that many of the times above mine have been gained with motor assistance. 

Hello to everyone, I need some help if someone knows something more than I do. I recently became a subscriber to Strava again after a year off and I was hoping that I would be able to use some routes either created by me or by either people. I can not seem to find if there is a button to say export gpx file or something like that. When I download a route i save it and afterwards when I press the 3 dots at the map I have no such option. When saved it says , save to the connected device but it is not saved at my watch. I am currently using a Huawei watch fit 4 pro. Even when I press the sent to button it says the content is just plain text so nothing? Any ideas?

I started a ride this morning with Strava running on my Apple watch. (Learning the ins & outs of a Garmin Edge 840 leaves me wanting a bigger screen.) So I stopped my ride at ~ 10 miles, then shut the Edge down, started a ride on Strava in the app on my iPhone.So I have two rides now: first’s 10.21 miles in 46 minutes, second’s 7.05 miles in 38 minutes.Is there some way in the Dashboard to combine these two into one ‘event’ record?Or can I use my Edge to run Strava my next time out?

I miss the old Strava feature that let us download a shareable image of our activity — you know, the one with the map on top and stats (distance, time, elevation) at the bottom? It was perfect for posting on social. Any chance it’s coming back?

So I have a Samsung Galaxy Watch 6.This week I am in Alcudia and using  treadmill. I have the Samsung Health app linked with Strava so no issues there. I started the app on my watch. And Strava has me down for either an Olympic contender to thrash Usain Bolt out the window or I ran 21 minutes but according to the app... I did 4 minutes. Have attached pics of last 3 treadmill runs  

Last 3 days I get 20-30+ notifications about 'ride paused 'ride resumed on a 2 hour ride.  The messages are usually are about 1-5 seconds apart.   Then when today's ride was over,  it gave me extra mileage for an identical route and faster speed (by 1 mph) than I've ever clocked. Based in how I felt today, I would have guessed I had lower than average speed .I live in metro Atlanta and have a strong signal the whole way.  Never heard this message before 3 days ago, unless I really had stopped/resumed.Anyone else experienced this? 

I am unsuccessfully trying to change the email associated with my Strava account from A to B. I use Google Sign-In to access Strava. When trying to change my email address it asks me for a password, but I have never created a password. I tried to use the password Recovery option many times but never received an email.When going to the account settings page I see the option for changing password but it dissappears the moment the page loads.I emailed Stava support about the issue but I'm not getting my hopes up. I see a lot of people complaing about their unresponsiveness.

I am using free Strava on Iphone.As of this week, there is live speed instead of average speed when cycling.  This is useless. Can it be changed back to average speed?

Hi, is it possible to use manual mode when plotting a route in the iPhone app like you can using the website?  

I see a bunch of posts regarding the power differences between Garmin (coming from a Power Meter) and Strava.  As the nerd in the group i am usually call on to help other with their tech.  On my setup, what comes out on the Garmin exactly matches what is displayed on Strava.  For the rest of our group, the difference is large, Strava is always 30 watts or more less.  So I don’t really buy this theory about handling the zero’s becuase we all ride together.  Does anyboy have any real reason why for my setup everything matches, and for others it doesn’t?  The only thing i could think of would be power meter drop outs?  But with four or five guys in the group having the same problem other than me, this doesn’t make sense.Any thoughts? 

I use a Garmin Forerunner 165 to record and sync activities with Strava (Android). Recently, when I do outoor rowing (crew) activities, it syncs with stats like these:In rowing, these stats are super irrelevant and unhelpful, with workouts measured in meters and splits (/500m) like below:Has anyone faced the same issue? Is there a way to manually highlight / select / force certain statistics to show via Garmin or via Strava? Having my row data in Strava went from super useful to super irrelevant overnight with no fix. Thanks.

It appears that there’s been a recent change which applies auto-pause to kayaking, but I suspect it uses cycling parameters, which are not appropriate for kayaks (which move more slowly than bikes). I record my kayaking outings on my iPhone. In my most recent kayak outings, Strava auto-pauses almost immediately and then never unpauses. I’ve used Strava for years and this never happened until now.My settings: I have auto pause enabled for cycling, but turned off for running. There doesn’t seem to be a way to control auto-pause for other sports. 

I am trying to create a route on desktop (windows 64bit, Chrome) and the map is just blank and I cannot interact. Bug? 

I'm new to this site so apologies in advance if I'm unfamiliar with itI have regular bike and e-bikes. I want both to count towards my annual goals (time and distance). I've been Googling for whether e-bike rides count, most replies suggest they do count, but clear from my total they don't (I can simply change an activity from Ride to E-Bike ride and see the totals change for YTD).How do I get it to count everything short of calling everything a Ride (which messes up lots of other things)?

I ride MTB, E-MTB, road and trainer and the e-bike rides don't get included in my goals.Just had a look at goal setting area and all Strava need to do is include is E-Bike and E-Mountain Bike Ride in All Ride and problem solved.
