Hi,

I am referring to Driving Directions – Strava Support.

My route starts from Home, goes through various places, and then ends back at Home.

When I follow the instructions in the above link, my navigation app (Google Maps) basically just says I am Home, because the directions are only from the ‘Start location’ to the ‘End location’, which are both Home.

Google Maps supports multiple locations. Please could the feature be fixed, such that the multi-point route is also reflected on the Navigation Apps?

Many thanks.

You misunderstood something, the driving directions are meant from your current location to the start of the route and not from the start to the end of the route. For the route itself there aren’t any turn by turn instructions available in Strava, for that you have to use other services like Komoot.

That’s a pity. Would be so much more helpful if there is a feature for turn-by-turn instructions for the route itself. It is such a pain to navigate a complex route purely based on the Strava map.
