Hello,

I did a run activity using strava on past 14/o4/2025. I did this activity with my smartwatch (Samsung Galaxy Watch 7) that it had a gps problem. Meanwhile, the gps is ok.

Now, I want correct the date of my past activity. 

I tried with following steps:

  • I exported the activity to a .gpx file.
  • I changed all wrong dates in file to the new date;
  • I deleted the old register on strava;
  • I inserted the new file with new date.

 

After that, the date that is presented is the wrong date. How can I fix this problem? Can you help me?

Many thanks for your help.

Hi ​@peuamiranda, how wrong the date is? Have you considered time zones and different time formats (DD.MM.YYYY vs MM.DD.YYYY, for example)?

Thank you - ok so it's not timezones nor the date format…

How are you editing the .gpx file? Is there any chance that it also has some timestamps (start date, end date, any other ones) that still include the old date?
