I have an pixel watch 2 and I start my runs using using my watch and the Strava app. However, when I'm running I would like to have audio cues that tell me how far I've run or for how long I've run. I do wear earphones that is connected to my phone and I still don't get any audio cues

The directional arrow of the Strava map while riding a bicycle trying to follow a route I created is off by at least 90 degrees. Makes trying to follow a route nearly impossible. You need to keep using your fingers to “twist” the map to the correct direction of travel. It’s my understanding that the blue directional arrow should alway point in the direction of travel(top of phone). It used to work several versions ago. Yes I am using the latest firmware and iOS . It is not my bike or phone as it is working with other apps. See attached photo. I am gearing up for another year of riding but if the map directions don’t work I will need to cancel Strava and use another way finding app. Any suggestions?

Hello, in the Strava app on Android I am trying to unsubscribe from a user I was previously subscribed to and I can't. I click "Unsubscribe" and news about this user comes again. I don't want to hide the news about the user, I just want to unsubscribe.

O PIOR SUPORTE QUE JÁ USEI ATÉ HOJE É O DO STRAVA. HÁ MESES ESTOU COM UM PROBLEMA DE ACESSO E GRAVAÇÃO DAS ATIVIDADES. QUANDO ESTOU EM UMA ATIVIDADE, O APLICATIVO FECHA SOZINHO E NÃO ENTRA MAIS, E QUANDO ENTRA, O QUE É RARO, MARCA A ATIVIDADE INCOMPLETA. AS RESPOSTAS SÃO AUTOMÁTICAS. E NEM SEMPRE FALAM SOBRE O QUE TENTAMOS RESOLVER. DEVERIA TER UM CHAT PARA PROBLEMAS QUE NÃO TEM NAS RESPOSTAS PRONTAS! ALGUÉM JÁ PASSOU POR ISSO? FICA A PERGUNTA E A DICA!!!

It has been brought to my attention that Strava is allowing motorcyclists to use Strava under the e-bike activity. I get the problem with e-bikes populating regular bike leaderboards but nothing seems to be done about motorcyclists using Strava as e-bikes.

Hi there, I have 2 Strava profiles. The first profile I created gave me full access & I pay the subscription fee.  I then created a second profile as I couldn’t access my first one (forgotten password) which has all my activities and up to date info.   How do I combine the two profiles without losing all my activities logged,  so that I get full use/access to the account which I’m paying for? 

Today I uploaded a trail run to Strava, 15km along the Levadas in Madeira.  When I looked at the data, I was surprised to see the same run showing up from 2017!  This is my first time in Madeira.  What's going on?

Hello all. I can see the activity description, small map and any media media uploaded on everyone’s activity on my feed screen. But when I press the small map to get to the detail screen I see all details of the activity but cannot see the map.  All I see is the line of the route with no underlying map.  There’s just a blank white screen under the route.  This is true for everyone’s activities and not just my own so I don’t think it’s a map visibility issue on my end. I’ve tried logging out and logging back in, rebooting the phone, clearing the cache and data and even uninstalling and reinstalling the app but I stiil have this problem.  The website works perfectly nomally.The phone is a Oneplus 10T 5G running Android 14. Could it be a dependency that the app has on some component of the OS on the phone?  I’ve disabled a number of Google apps, like Gmail, Google Assistant, Android Auto and a few others. This problem started happening after a recent Strava app update and used t

I have been double charged by Strava and the money they’ve deducted is allocated for something else ASAP. 

I’m unable to create routes using the route builder due to error. Has anyone experienced similar problems? 

Buenas tardes, en la última actualización de strava solo pueden verse los segmentos en los cuales se ha hecho PR, copa o corona. Pero ya no existe la posibilidad de poder ver todos los segmentos en el mapa como anteriormente, ahora hay que ir uno a uno y no puedes verlos en el recorrido como antes, esto creo que no ha sido una mejora. Lo de ver los KOM etc está muy bien, pero debería estar la opción de ver todos los segmentos en el mapa como anteriormente. Gracias de antemano 

why don’t trail running activities count toward elevation goals or challenges?

Why are there comment limitations, especially as a subscriber to Strava? There has been a local race on today, so I'm wanting to comment on many Strava friends' posts. However, due to limited comment amounts being allowed, I can't do this. I think that I've only commented on about 20 people's posts! Why have such extreme limitations to an app, which is all about boosting each other through kudos and comments?! I find this bizarre and highly frustrating. It is even more frustrating that I cannot scroll back through people's posts as far as I'd like, as it only allows me to go so far back! Why is this also? 

Hello, I’ve noticed that all my feeds from the beginning of the month have disappeared.  Not just my activities but people who I follow.  This is affecting my iPhone and PC.  I have done another activity today which has gone through and showing in my feeds but still missing old feeds.  Thanks

I love Strava for more than tacking how fast I completed any one segment. I use it to track wear on my components and my overall distance over a given timeframe.  I recently read this article on Bike Radar : https://www.bikeradar.com/features/opinion/why-ive-got-a-big-problem-with-strava Where the author has given up on Strava because of his competitive nature and how he feels when he views how his performance stacked up against others. I’ve heard this same argument from so many others too. While I like to see how I stack up against others, some clearly don’t. It might be an idea to allow users to disable segment time tracking or time tracking altogether.  It seems to me Strava provides much more value than this one piece that is pushing users away. Just a thought. 

So, here i am again because apparantly this is the only place where i can get at least a reaction… I want to change my emailadress, but dont have acces to the currently linked emailadress and password. The strava account is linked to my old facebook account. In the past 6 weeks i opened 4 tickets on the strava app, and send at least 3 emails. I didn't even get a reaction! I honestly dont know what to do anymore.It's just scandalous how bad the customer service is...

Hi all, I am using a Xiaomi smartwatch to record my open water swim (outdoor) using GPS. The watch and corresponding app track it correctly BUT when uploaded into strava, the data becomes incorrect eg 27m, when I swam 1.5km. All my open water swim data seems to be constantly stuck between 24-28m. Oddly my first ever open water swim uploaded the correct data (of 500m) and since then, has been incorrect. Is there any way to fix this? I have refreshed connection between Xiaomi app and strava numerous times but to no avail. The activity is classified as a “swim” in strava  

 i would like to ask if strava will refund for unwanted subscription because it suddenly deducted to my ewallet account (gcash) with out my permission

Hi. I'm interested in running the half marathon in Montreal on April 26th 2025. Looking for someone selling their bib on Race Roster. Thanks. Bonjour. Je souhaite participer au semi-marathon de Montréal le 26 avril 2025. Je recherche quelqu'un qui vend son dossard sur Race Roster. Merci.

The measurements of my HR sensor is plagued with outliers. In particular, I get wrong measurements when the contacts of my sensors are not wet enough. This happens at the beginning of my ride or downhill (especially when this is long). Would it possible to develop an algorithm to exclude the outliers based on a simple logic:a if I am going downhill, it is hard to expect a rate over my max thresholdb if the rate of change of the bpms (first derivative) is quite high, it is hard to believe that the high rate measured could be true.Alternatively you can use an AI. You can create a command called "Adjust Heart Rates" similar to the one you use for the elevation adjustment.

Ciao a tutti,uso una app cannondale per le mie uscite in bici che funziona benissimo. Il problema nasce nel trasporto dati verso Strava,dove viene rilevato solo il punto di inizio e il punto di arrivo oppure una parte del percorso fatto. Come si può fare? 

I notice that Strava makes use of Openstreet Maps. Does anyone know if they donate to them?

My cycling club is aiming to reduce its environmental impact.One of the things we do is to publish a weekly top three of distance, ascent and longest ride from all the club’s members’ activities.  This encourages members to try to increase their distances ridden or ascent climbed.Please could you add a tag riders or hikers can use called ‘Not the Car’ or ‘Car Substitute’ or something similar so all Strava users can also easily log and analyse the times they have cycled or walked instead of using their car.  We think this will add to awareness of environmental impacts and what steps people have taken to reduce theirs.  It could also feed into challenges. Many thanks
