Devices and Connections

Looks like this has been a problem for over a year, Strava says its a "known problem". If that is true its known who's problem it is, Strava or Garmin. Strava's bandaid is to unstar all the segments and sync the device to flush the segments, then re-star the new segments you wish to load. Suggestion: make a list of the segments you want to keep with correct spelling. My issue with this overtly cumbersome process is I only get 60% of segments uploaded. If I star one segment, it doesn't appear. 2 segments, one of the two will be uploaded. 20 segments I will get 13 segments in the Garmin, with no control over which 13 appear. If this process is the only solution then using Garmin segments makes more sense.

I have Strava app on phone and watch, when following instructions on watch it points me to - https://watch.samsung.strava.com/ When I access the site I get the following error - {"message": "Internal server error"} I have tried different browsers on different devices and get the same error on all of them. 

This is a strange happening that started recently. I usually run Strava and RWGPS at the same time during a ride. Most of my bike club members use Strava to record their rides to share their results. I also run RWGPS so that I can use the turn by turn cues.I’ve never had a problem running both apps at the same time until recently, where partway through the ride I no longer hear either of the two speaking. The apps still run perfectly, recording the route where I can end each one and save the results.I also noticed recently that Strava is also back to using the default voice. I had changed my default voice on my iPhone to a British English voice and Strava adopted that when giving me my “starting ride“, “stopping“, and “resuming“ cues. It’s no longer doing that no matter how I set my iPhone settings.It was suggested by RWGPS that I run the apps separately and not at the same time. That might have solved my problem with Strava since I tested it alone today a

impossible to synchronize but run from the watch, several cross tests done without success, wifi deactivation, watch restart,... nothing works!

Hi - I had a Fitbit Charge 2 watch for several years and all activity on my fitbit that used my iPhone's GPS was automatically sinced to Strava without any intervention from me. I just switched to apple watch recently and when I start an activity, I either manually start it in the activity app on my watch or the activity is auto detected on the watch. I have activated my strava account in apple health ( and vice versa) but my activity on my apple watch does not auto import in Strava. The activities does show in Strava but I need to manually import each of them. Is this the normal behaviour ? Am-I missing any setting ? Thanks !

Is it possible to edit the 3 default activity buttons on the Strava app on the Galaxy Watch? And to remove buttons on the full activities list? I can't seem to find a way to do it, and I may just not have found the correct search phrase(s) but not finding any info on the forums or Google on how to do this.  Thanks!

I did a ride yesterday.  When I finished I did not have internet (until the next day).  I stopped the activity and left it open over night.   Activity was gone this morning.  Is there a way to get it back?

I'm using the Indoor Run option to sync with treadmill runs. Consistently 0.1 to 0.15 miles behind actual. Outdoor runs no issues. Is there another setting to be adjusted? 

Hi,Do you have plans regarding the Android implementation for Health Connect? Specifically, I'm referring to writing data into the Health Connect app.

Welcome to Strava. Perhaps you stumbled upon Strava because of a device you were using, or a recommendation from a friend. Maybe you are an OG and remember the days when Strava only had cycling segments and leaderboards. Regardless of your story we know you want Strava to be the hub for your athletic life and we want to help that happen. Thanks to our public API, Strava works with hundreds of thousands of devices and applications all unique, enabling us to proudly state we are brand and device agnostic. We do our best to process the data properly and accommodate the different intricacies of all of these devices and applications, however, you will inevitably see discrepancies or discover ways we could better support your particular device. For example, have you ever noticed that maybe your elevation isn’t just quite the same as what you saw on your device? Or maybe the application you are using showed one distance while Strava showed another? We know these t

Hi,I have a Garmin Vector 3S potenciometer.When activate Garmin connect sincronization, all data power appear in Strava, include NP, IF...I want to share data power, but not all data power.

Today I noticed that my latest Zwiftride started at 5 pm in Strava but I started it at 7 pm. Then I looked at my other rides and it seems like all my Zwift rides (more then 100 over the last year) got a starting time 2 hours earlier. No issue with real life rides. It's weird because it is the first time I see this. Could it be that the hours changed recently? Or is this a Zwift problem? Greetings

Hello, it is been a some month since the live segments doesn’t function anymore in my Garmin edge 520. If I’m racing a segment the Garmin show me that it is started but if I’m going on map page my position isn’t correct and if I go on the page were I can see the live times it say me that I’m not on the route. Instead, if I’m going in any page of a segment , when I’m not running, the maps, the ranking and the elevation are totally black without any information. I already try to reset my device and re starring the segments but had not changed nothing. Thanks.

I've just started using the Apple Watch Ultra and its Workout app to record my runs, and I'm getting very mixed results with intervals. The other day, I did a simple fartlek run—1:05 on, 1 off, 12 reps—and everything imported just fine. Today I did a 10-minute warmup, a 6-mile steady state, and a mile cooldown—all built as a single Custom Workout, and the middle section came in as literally 100 segments, some of them as short as 15 seconds. I don't know if this is an Apple problem or a Strava problem, but it's a pretty weird one! Any insight here?

I usually work outside with the galaxy watch 4 without my smartphone. and it used to draw a map 3 days ago. but it hasn't drawn a map for 2days. I ran the same route. I pressed the start button as usual. but I don't why the map hasn't been displayed for the past two days.   anybody helps?

Hello, I’m using "exercises" app on Apple Watch for my swimming sessions. Everything works perfectly, but when I import this one into Strava, it appears but without putting the realised distance...🤷🏻‍♂😞. Does an adjustment have to be made for this to appear?? Thank you for your return

I just recently connected strava to apple health and allowed sharing between the apps.  All my strava activites were synced back August 23 but nothing before that.  

I've been facing an issue recently that's left me a bit puzzled. I completed a challenging 100K ride and logged it on Strava. However, when I saved the activity, the map disappeared, and I couldn't see any track. What's even more frustrating is that this happened to me not just once, but twice. Curiously, I decided to conduct a trial ride for less than 1KM yesterday, and it worked perfectly—the map showed up in the results as expected. I've been a loyal user of this app for over two years, and this issue has never occurred before. It's quite perplexing and disheartening. please help

Good afternoon all, trust you are doing good. Does someone know, why my Suunto 9 baro shows incredibly big altitude numbers? Measured height (at starting point) as of 74 m is correct, but the accumulated altitude metres during the ride are too much (1316 metres of accumulated altitude for a 80 km ride, which is actually quite flat....). Any ideas, pls? Thanks, cheers, Christoph

Hi,is there any way to make Strava speed calculations accurate 100%? I was thinking about pairing Strava with some cyclocomputer that uses a classic magnet piece attached to the spoke. However, after my research, I found that Strava can be paired only with cyclocomputers that use GPS to calculate speed/max speed. That sucks a bit. Is there any other way to have speed calculations right?  

after downloading the activity to the diet, the segments are displayed, according to the KOM time, but they are not entered in the table of the best and no one else can even see the segment, how is this possible??

Hello, can someone explain me why strava is messing with my routes uploaded from cycle computer? 1. I'm recording my routes (commuting in a big city ) with my gps bike computer (iGPSsport BSC100S) with a speed sensor on a wheel. It has an app where I can see the results via bluetooth. For example todays route I drove: 12,2km, 30:40 moving time, avg speed 24kmh2. Computer's app is linked to strava and it automatically uploads route to strava when I save3. That exact same route on Strava has 20% worse results: 12,1km, 35:03 moving time, avg speed 20,8kmh.I tried manually export .gpx, .fit and .tcx to strava and each file extension has different results! .tcx are total mess, it tells me that I was driving 85kmh  (vmax) and shows 29min time.Speed sensor are calibrated with gps reading and correct wheel size

Hello, I have a Polar Vantage V2 that synchronize and share all my activities on Strava. It works like a charm. However, I would like to share some activities (for example: running) and not others (for example: swimming). In Strava's settings, it seems that it is "all or nothing". I wish I was wrong. Could you give me an answer? Best, Alex

I've noticed annoying issues with Apple Watch run workouts and Strava. If I set alerts (i.e. pace range alerts etc...) for a custom apple watch run workout. Strava interprets each alert as a new lap. This feels like a bug, has anyone else had the same issue?
