Filtering activity in the Club's Leaderboard

My idea is to make it possible to filter the results in the Club Leaderboard by type of training.E.g. for cycling group filter by: virtual ride, e-bike, outdoor ride etc.This way you can compare specific types of rides which is more fair. Thanks

Kidos removed from activity details page

It is no longer possible to give kudos once on the activity details page on iOS. I wonder what is the logic behind this?

Add Tandem Riding as a cycle sport

I live in a household that owns six tandem bikes. We ride them regularly in the summers. The problem is that if we log our activities on Strava it skews the leaderboards for everyone else. Can we pick up all of the KOM/QOM’s on our ride? Absolutely, but that’s because there are two of us pedaling. Tandem cycling needs to be a separate sport from regular riding in order to properly log those activities and not mess up everyone else’s cycling leaderboards.

Add Winter Fat Biking as a sport

Winter fat biking has been growing in popularity for years. There are fat bike specific events and races occurring in different states. There should be a separate sport for winter fat biking, or even just for winter biking.

Access activities via your heatmap

Especially when I revisit an area after some time and try to regain some orientation by viewing my heatmap, I´d absolutely love if there would be an option “show list of activities in that area” where you could directly access the activities shown in that certain activity cluster on your map.

Quirky swim intervals on Strava

Why does Strava persist in recording a 100 yd interval as a 75yd + 25yd swim in a pool with lengths measuring 25 yards?

Calories on Commutes

For some reason, calories are hidden from commute activities and replaced with co2 emmissions. Having that is fine, but calories shouldn’t be removed. At least put it into the the expanded stats. They seem to show on the website but not the app.

Power curve calc error? Only uses best w/kg efforts, even when viewing in watts

Looking at my power curve this evening I noticed that my “All of 2024” line exceeded the Custom Date Range line I had set for all of my cycling years (side note, I’d really like an “All Time” option in the dropdown menu so I don’t have to create custom date ranges every time I want to see my all time bests).  This was telling me that in 2024 I actually exceeded my all time best power for certain time durations. At face value this makes no sense, as any efforts in 2024 should have counted towards my all time bests.  I was viewing the chart in Watts.  When I toggled the curve to display in “Watts/KG, the lines converged, and I saw what (I think) was happening: due to weight gain over the years, my maximum w/kg for those specific time durations were set back in 2016, while my raw power over the same time durations was set in 2024.I do not accept that it is correct to only use the best w/kg efforts when building the power curve and then have the toggle button simply convert that single cur

Download map from Strava onto Phone

I'd like to download a large area onto my phone with my heatmaps so I can access this from the trail when I have no service.  I can do this on Trailforks but it does not show my "private" routes. Is there a way to download the  Strava map locally to my phone and still have access to trails/routes that I recorded when I open the app and not "in service"?  Again, the trails that I want to access on the map would be private not public.Thanks in advance

Improve format for printing routes

When printing a saved route not all the written directions are shown as the printout is limited to one page. This can only be corrected by reducing the scaling, which results in a tiny map and elevation profile, particularly a problem for long cycle rides. It would be preferable if the directions were formatted to spill over onto multiple pages if required. I’ve tested with Chrome, Safari, Firefox on Mac - all behave in. a similar manner.

We need a filter for commute type rides

Some of the people I follow do a lot a commute rides which are quite frankly boring and just fill up my feed.  I am really only interested in their ride when it is more unusual. If I could set a simple milage filter on those people so that I would only see their rides when they exceeded a certain mileage that would increase my enjoyment of Strava.  I would also like it if I could filter on activity types so that I am not fed stuff like riding their training bike in the  garage or knowing about every time they went swimming.  It is all noise to me. Thank you

E-Bike segments same as analogue

I have an E-bike and a regular mountain bike and I would love to be able to compare performance on routes that I regularly ride, particularly down hills.  Why are the the segments different for E bikes and regular bikes?  It makes no sense. I’m not asking for the times to be lumped together in leader boards etc. they should still be accounted for separately.

You are close to glory

Hey Strava Team!I just got an email from you about staying motivated by finding and challenging segments, and it got me thinking...How cool would it be to have a feature that shows segments where you're on the verge of breaking into the Top 10 or even snagging the KOM/QOM?Imagine planning your next ride or run knowing exactly which segments you're this close to conquering—it would get people out there hunting for PRs like never before!Feel free to contact me for details :)

Switch elevation and pace as a setting

Please make it possible to choose between elevation gain and pace in the activity feed. When I have done a solid run or nordic ski I want people to see my pace, not my elevation gain in the activity feed. My way of bragging.Killian Jornet can then feel free to choose to show his elevation gain for his activity/activities.

Service Notification

I’d love to see a function that allows me to set personal notifications for the maintenance of my bike. For instance; based on the KM’s I’ve ridden I’d love to be notified every 300km to check my chain for wear. Or set a notification to check my drivetrain/cassette. Makes it easier not to forget the regular stuff and make my gear last longer.

make title blank on quick edit field or give the option to "x" away the default title

I would like to suggest a “Delete All Text” button in the automatic form after an activity.The main reason here is to customize the activity since now I have to manually delete all the automatic text. My suggestion is to add a “Delete Text” button (like in the screenshot in blue) to facilitate this. Thank you for considering this!

Make gear transferable and allow logging activites to somebody else's gear

It would be great if all gear could have its own identity profile in Strava, such that if we borrow or rent gear we can tag an activity to a specific bike wether we own it or not.  Feature would also alow us to buy/sell/transfer gear from one user to another, so when we buy a used bike we have its history.

Best Efforts- 3 monthly resets

Best Efforts---- Should have a 3-month reset AND an all-time best Efforts, because as we age, we can't keep competing against a stronger, younger version of ourselves, It will be a better way to stay motivated by hitting some daily medals over a 3-month period. This is more for the people that are older but want to see and chase some more realistic times of our current age and fitness levels. 👍

Bikejoring plague in bike ladders.

Hello everyone!So the topic for today is Bikejoring people on bike ride/mtb/gravel rides.What is bikejoring? It’s a device that you plug into your bike and connect to a running dog. Its like e-bike but the helping engine is simply a dog.examples:https://www.strava.com/activities/13515789892#3321036472324054150https://www.strava.com/activities/888186160#21658067064https://www.strava.com/clubs/553814Point is, there is no such activity in strava yet people doing it are stealing KOM’s and places in ladder which is simply not fair. Its not a personal rant for the person i gave examples on but i think we need to talk about it to prevent mixing sports and abnormal amount of flagging. Looking for solution of this situation.

Request for refund

Dear Strava Support Team, I am writing to express my concern and seek for assistance, as the subscription fee was deducted from my GCash account worth P1,500 through Apple services without prior notification. Upon checking on your Terms and Conditions Support page online, it was stated that we are entitled to get a refund as long as the cancellation was done within 48 hours. Luckily, I immediately cancelled the subscription the time I knew I was renewed. I kindly request your immediate assistance in processing my refund. Your prompt response would be greatly appreciated because this matter is quite urgent as I am in need of the funds for an emergency. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
