Until a recent update when you zoomed out on your personal heatmap you would be able to see various sizes of dots (with numbers) that indicated where you have completed activities. After the update when you zoom out very far from the area where you have completed an activity there is no indication where you have completed any activities. Request that this feature be added back to the personal heatmaps.

Has anyone heard anything official from Strava about whether activity clusters will be brought back or not? I agree 100% with the sentiments on this thread. One of my favorite features, now gone. Very sad.

I suspect that this thread is one of many in the "community" that is meant to allow us all just to talk to each other.  Though it would be nice, it may be unrealistic to assume that anyone within Strava corporate reads these with the intent of gathering ideas for improvement of the user experience.  (Too bad, since that would be "agile" and "hip".)  If they ever do come back with activity clusters, we likely won't hear about it in this forum, it will just be presented out of the blue as a "new and improved" Heatmap experience.  That said, it does mystify me that they don't bring back the activity clusters, since they obviously already have the code.  But maybe the application architecture is such a mass of spaghetti that re-inserting this is a lost cause fraught with danger to the code base.  I dunno. 

Why there is no feedback at all from the support crew about this topic? 

It's hard to tell if any Strava staffer reads "Community", or if they intend it only as a chat space for users.  Too bad if it's the latter, but it's starting to look like that might be the case.  The "happy thought" is that this is something in Strava's software development backlog that they haven't yet decided to take up, and they're just not being communicative about it (no excuse for that, though).  But what I'm starting to suspect is that they've monetized the Heatmaps now that they display commercial establishments, and there's no longer really a place for big, fat (but informative) activity clusters.  Serving advertisers, not customers.

Bring activity clusters!!!

On the personal heatmaps, please bring back the activity clusters option. Just as it worked before: when you zoom out, the activity clusters are very useful to see since the extent of the activities themselves gets tinier. And as before, toggle the activity clusters on and off (if you do not want to see them).

When I click that link, it brings me back to this thread, is that right? Or is there a new thread we should be voting on? 

Yet another vote to please bring back activity clusters!

Bring the clusters back please! It was so great to see all the places in the world you ran!
