and just like that my activities no longer show anyone else riding with me or me riding with anyone eslse. What have I changed and how do I change it back?  Please/Thanks 

Apologies if I am asking a question asked many times, When using strava on my android phone you can view how far you have gone simply by pressing the lock screen key, however I can’t get this to work on my Iphone SE, is it possible to get a snapshot of the activity on the lock screen on the Iphone SE - see the attachment of the android phone?  

There is a great feature where you could compare those metrics (Speed, HR, power) of all selected athletes for each second by sliding through the timeline.Approx. 2 weeks ago I noticed that this is brokwen so that the figures only update for reference athlete (the on on top of the selected list) while for all others it is stuck at one figure (average on the segment, I think)Please fix this. This is really annoying and takes away a huge value in comparisson analyses.

Hi, I (and many others) used to love Strava mainly because we could easily use your excellent heatmaps in high resolution (i.e in the highest levels beyond 15) in external tools that we use to plan hiking or backpacking trips, i.e. CalTopo, Gaia, etc.But a few months ago, you changed that. You broke everything, and everyone with a bit of technical understanding and the ability to read through GitHub and OSM forums knows what changed. It's clear and obvious that you want to keep users on your own platform and make them pay. But things like this just scream "infinite corporate greed". It's such a shame that you did this. Strava is shooting itself in the foot. People will not change their route planning tools they've used for years and suddenly switch over to the Strava route planner - which is inferior in so many ways.Here's an idea for your product management: why don't you charge separately for external access to your highest-resolution global heatmaps? Something like

The app is the best. But something from the adidas running app (former runtastic) is still unmatched in my opinion. It is the easy view of all activities of a given period. As showed on the captures joined. We can easily see all the activities and the total mileage of a period. Month. Week. Year. I would love to have that as it is quite complicated to find a past activity or a past résumé of a period on strava.   What do you think about this ?  Thanks 

Few days ago,I still use the normal strava map when cycling but when the application updates itself, the map in the record and map turns white and I can't see anything. When the journey ends, the map appears. I don't use duckduckgo but the map stillshows white. I'm using a j7 prime device. 

Hello,When I want to check the “Best Efforts” of the people I follow, everything is fine besides POWER data in CYCLING. No matter whom I check, including pro cyclists, it says “No PR - Yet! A PR will be recorded when they record a ride of 5 seconds or longer (with power data)”. I checked at least 15 profiles - nothing. And I am sure I have seen their power data on the bicycle before. Elevation, distance etc. is normally displayed, though.When I check my own power data on the bike in the “Best Efforts” section, I see it (5, secs, 30 secs, 1 min...) but it says “Only you can see your power data”. This is strange, and might be connected to the non-visible power data of the other people. I checked my privacy settings and nowhere have I excluded power data in the visibility.I wonder whether others encounter the same issue?Kind regards, Nik

Id love the capability to challenge my friends to the fastest segment time over a weekend. Is that in the pipeline to be created?  Right now group challenges are pretty limited.ThanksBeeJo

Over the past six months or so I’ve increasingly received follows from obviously fake accounts (always a sexy stock/AI photo for the profile and zero or maybe 1 activity over the history of the account). I’ve been blocking them as they come in, but it’s getting more frequent (received three yesterday). Strava, what are you doing about this activity and what do you recommend I do (beyond blocking) to stop it?

After running a long distance of 40 km, I tried importing the data into Strava, but the app keeps crashing. Importing works fine for 10 km runs or swimming data, but only the 40 km activity can’t be imported—the app crashes every time. I even tried deleting and reinstalling the app, but the same issue occurs. What could be the problem?

Hi there, I have done an interval training indoors using a Body Bike which I connected to my Garmin Edge 840. I have Garmin Connect connected to Strava so the activity is uploaded there automatically. I was wearing a garmin heart rate monitor and the heart rate data of the activity was stored and visible in both Garmin Connect and Strava. However, Strava does not calculate the relative effort for this activity. It is 0. Because I cycled indoor, the distance is 0.03 km (it is basically drift of the GPS). My first hypothesis is that the distance is affecting the relative effort, but perhaps any one of you has a better idea? Thanks in advance,JorisPS here is the link to the activity: https://www.strava.com/activities/15228131292 

Max speed differs from values in Garmin Connect. I have 14.5 km/h in Strava and 16.0 km/h in Garmin. How can that be? Distance is the same and Elapsed Time is same. 

Hello!Had this issue for a while now. While everything works perfect when recording and uploading data with my watch.(Watch is getting old)But the issue start when i try to record activities on my phone(android) with the strava app instead of my watch.While im out running, values display like they are suppose to. For example, 45 min running time and distance 8km and Avg pace 5:30min/km and correct GPS map data.But the moment i save the activity, all data gets messed up.Running time change to 20 min. Distance remain at 8km and Avg Pace becomes 2:30/km and so on.Why is that happening?

In the training overview I can't see max speed. I have only 5 values. A friend sees 6 values and my speed. Ww both use Garmin watches. Any idea?  

The ‘Choose a Sport’-list in the Maps section doesn’t scroll at all, just some text flickers a bit when attempting. I am not able to choose Kayaking which renders the whole app unusable to me. The issue is the same on both my iPhone 13 Pro and iPad Pro 3rd gen, both running iOS 18.5. Are others experience this bug? 

On iOS, in the route builder if I turn on any of the heat maps the builder crashes. How to fix this?

I have added a pair of running shows to my profile which already had 160km. But Strava starts counting at 0 and does not allow me to specify or edit the distance.The same feature on Runna works just fine. 

Using an Apple Watch Ultra 2 and an iPhone 15 Pro. All of my workouts done on the Apple Watch are saved in Apple Health and push to Strava just fine with all metrics and maps syncing to Strava.EXCEPT FOR SNOWBOARDING.With Snowboarding, I only see the total mileage. That’s it. The number of runs don’t sync and the maps don’t sync. I can see that the number of runs and the maps are saved in the Fitness app on my iPhone and Apple Health.I’ve double and triple checked the permissions between Apple Health and Strava. I’ve turned off all sync permissions between the two and restarted. I’ve stood on my head and held out my tongue…. (well maybe I never did that).And nothing changes. Maps and number of runs don’t push from Apple Health to Strava.Is this a bug? Does anyone have any ideas what I can do to rectify this?

I am suscribed to Strava premium and I have some issues that I can’t find answers to. I am missing some features:1) Strava doesnt feature the map/route of what i readmy best efforts are not updated at all I have no idea where. Anyone have any suggestions? I cant find anything in a FAQ and cant find a strava live support

I found it strange that Strava Activities are always a bit shorter than what my watch says.And I know for a fact that my watch is correct, because when doing races, it is always spot on with the official times.Let’s focus on my last activity. If I open it on strava and ask to create a route from my activity, this is what I get: At the bottom, it says 7.1Km, which is EXACTLY what my watch recorded for that route.But if I look at the Activity map, it’s like I a taking shortcuts that are not possible, as it goes straight where the road curves: The resut is 90m difference on a 7100m route: 

Is it possible to import both bike and hike data, but have them displayed together instead of separately? Thank you!Ist es möglich, auch Bike- und Hike-Daten zu importieren, die aber gemeinsam angezeigt werden und nicht getrennt? Vielen Dank!

Hi there,I want to show my ride map style with the various elements showing on and off road sections, and the stats to show how much was on/off road. Is that possi8ble with Strava?

Bonjour, j'ai un souci depuis la dernière mise à jour de Strava.  Quand je suis en vélo et que je débute une sortie avec un itinéraire défini. Ce dernier s'efface de la carte après que l'écran se soit éteint … Je suis obligé de faire retour sur l'accueil de Strava et de retourner dans "enregistrer" pour que l'itinéraire s'affiche de nouveau. C'est absolument pas pratique car je dois déverrouiller mon téléphone en roulant.  Quelqu'un aurait-il une solution ? J'ai désinstallé l'application mais rien n'y fait.  D'avance merci ! 

Add martial arts and dance as new sportsThx

Hi, where can I find more running events in HK besides SCB marathon and HKMZ half marathon? Thanks.
