Today I went on my first bike ride since December and when I ended/saved my activity I noticed that for some reason Strava hid my start and end location. Why? Is this a bug? Anyway I went into my privacy settings and the start/end hide, which I had set to off, was changed! Now I have a hidden start and end that I want to unhide so that my followers can see them.  How can I unhide them? I can’t find any obvious way to do this in the app. Do I have to use the website?  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

I wish programmers would be more considerate and not mess with personal settings, or log you out of an app when it upgrades, or time out your log in (well except for sensitive apps like banking), etc. I haven’t had any log out problems with Strava but this setting changing by itself was annoying.

On the website you can edit the map visibility using the button with the 3 dots, on the left of the Activity display (just to the right of the “Edit Activity” button)

The mobile app does have that option too - open the activity, tap three dots in the top right corner, and then Edit Map Visibility. Edit the start/end point visibility and save. 
 

If you want to set some general behavior, go to Settings > Privacy Controls > Map Visibility, and define how you want the activities to be displayed. 

Thanks everyone! 🙂
