The Strava app on Google Watch 3 isn't very good – I can't set my favourite activity, Mountain Biking, so I have to scroll past about 30 activities to find it each time.

Instead, I've used the default Fitbit app (which does add Mountain Biking as a quick select favourite). However, I can't get it to sync with Strava. I've read forums, reinstalled both apps, checked permissions on both apps multiple times etc.

 

Has anyone else had this issue?

I am now having the issue. I have a pixel watch 2. It was syncing nicely (for about the last year) until Tuesday or Wednesday this week and it stopped. I’ve also tried all the disconnect/reconnect app steps but nothing seems to be fixing it. I don’t know what changed. 


I have the exact same issue with Pixel 2, it started couple days ago and none of my activities (e.g. running) are automatically synced. Haven't changed anything in the settings for both Fitbit or Strava. I re connected the apps again but it didn't work either. It seems that some update (to Fitbit or Strava) caused this issue....


OK, I hav some updates!

  1. As mentioned, when I clicked the Fitbit Mountain Biking icon to track my ride, it DIDN'T sync with Strava.
  2. The following day I went for a Hike, I clicked the Hike icon and it DID sync with Strava right away.
  3. The following day I tried using the the Fitbit Mountain Biking icon again, it DIDN'T sync with Strava.
  4. The following day I clicked the Cycle icon and it DID sync with Strava right away!

 

So, for me, it seems to be specific to Fitbit Mountain Biking.

 

cheers


Thanks! Unfortunately for me it is still actual, for both walking and running activities that I start either manually from Fitbit app on the watch or (that for walking) when it automatically detected it and then I started it. Nevertheless, it is still broken....


Same issue here with a Fitbit Versa 2. Just started a few days ago. Disconnected and reconnected the Fitbit app to Strava, still broken. No Fitbit activities sync with Strava. I also suspect an app update broke something.


Same here with Fitbit app + Charge 6. None of my GPS walks and runs are pushing over to Strava. Never had any issues with this before last Thursday-ish. Tried reconnecting/reinstalling etc and no change. 


Same, no more data from Fitbit or google fit into Strava from my Google pixel watch 2... Shame, it all syncs to interval from Strava for full studies.… Strava is for me the share and friends! 

Reinstalled all apps,, relinked all apps nothing changed! 😭😭😭

 

Please Strava send info ! What can be done? Where is the problem? 


Have tried every solution available and my google watch 2 still won’t sync with strava. This is very annoying. Seems like it’s happening to people at the same time.
