Strava Features Chat

Hi, I started noticing in the recommended "Who to Follow" section the title, "Fan favorite on Strava" below a person's name. When did this start and honestly, can I hide this concept? My issue is that it feels like Strava is rewarding the person who follows few people and has a lot of followers. Like someone who follows 30 people but has 3000 followers. Also, some "fan favorites" haven't posted in over a year; so they are "ghosts" who had a lot of followers. Anyway, the whole "Who to Follow" isn't something I care to see but mainly due to this "reward the cool kids" concept. Thanks for reading and any help.

I’m wondering why my follower and following lists are no longer in alphabetical order?

Its a shame, strava is bowing to the facists US Leader and goes in line with all the big tech lackeys, licking Trumps boot. Strava says in the original post to put those maps back online:“Thanks for your post and sharing your thoughts. We’re not currently able to consider this idea and it will be moved to a status of Not Currently Planned.”It was there, so it only needs to be switched on. It always starts like that in dictatorships.

I usually ride emtb and record my rides with older Garmin Edge Explore. It only has Ride, no eRide. After Garmin transfers data to Strava I change/edit it to emtb ride. Usually segments change to emtb but not always. I have tryed to change back to eMtbRide->Ride->eMtbRide. Does not help. Any suggestions how to edit Ride to get emtb segments? 

I’m on the second month of paying for a subscription but no subscription is active. I’ve put in multiple tickets but none have been answered. I’ve uninstalled and reinstall the app and I’ve even tried the restore purchase as multiple times.

Please help.I had no idea my free trial on Strava had ended and I was being charged . I have requested a refund , please can this be accepted as I cannot afford to pay for a subscription when I have not even considered using the app, this is really important, especially as Strava failed to notifiy me of any upcoming payments

Is there a feature making it possible to sort and filter according to the most used activity times? The activity types most used should be always shown on top?

How do I find instant workouts on my android strava app.  My husband has it on the top of his home feed (apple phone) but mine doesnt seem to have that feature on either the app or if I log in on the computer. 

I somehow clicked okay to move to use of a one-time password to log in, but it is less convenient and requires more steps.   how do I switch back?  There is no longer an option to change password in settings, only change email -- and I want to keep the same email.Thanks

Management: If an activity has been flagged, it should be removed from "best efforts" on the member's profile page... one would think! But it's not, here's an example: https://www.strava.com/activities/1647252235/overview The guy almost certainly recorded an airplane ride as a bike ride and uploaded it. Airplane speeds now show as best efforts on his profile. Thanks.JBW-Florida (he/him)STRAVA | User Community

I like doing long exploratory rides….  the biggest challenge i have is mapping routes, particularly when the area is not familiar. For example. right now I want to create a route between two specific locations, i have never been there and its about 100 miles apart. So getting lost is a huge possibility, and when doing long rides…  a small mistake can cost hours.  It would be great if there was a feature where i put in location a, and enter location b)  enter the type of terrain, gravel, road, cycle path etc… and bike type road, gravel, mtb etc…. and it creates a route for me, as close as possible to the terrain / bike type, using say heatmaps for popularity, which i can use on my bike computer. 

There is a new bug associated with a recent app update: When you visit a Club Event in the app, links are no longer clickable or highlighted.  EVEN WORSE: You cannot highlight text, which would at least allow you to copy-and-paste the link into a mobile browser.  To summarize:  Event description links cannot be clicked, whether they are links within Strava or internet links!  The text of Event Posts cannot be highlighted or copied.  The Event text is effectively an image of text that cannot be interacted with in any meaningful way.    *** THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE FOR CLUBS ***We need people to be able to click the link to sign liability waivers We need people to be able to access our website, so they can review our ride guidelines We need to people to access map links, so they know where to… gather at the start, park their cars, or where the end-of-ride meetup is going to take place.[Side note:  I do

Hi, A recent activity, ride, is not appearing as usual on club leader boards. I’m a long term user & have not had this issue previously. I have tried changing the activity type then changing back with no success. Any advice welcome.Thanks

Is it possible to disable everything goal related? It seems incessant lately. I signed up and pay for an app to record my activities. I couldn't care less about the screen wasting goal suggesting and constant artificial validation.

The Relative Effort screen currently shows no more than the weeks first 8 activities. There should be no limit.

When I log in the dashboard, activity feed is just completely blank. I've tried clearing cache, cookies, logging out and in and even tried another browser and it's the same, the page just doesn't load (see screenshot). It's been like this for a week now and is becoming quite frustrating, i basically can't use Strava now I’ve then been to try to submit a support request, and the support request system is also not working properly for me, so now I have no idea what to do or who to contact (does anybody from Strava monitor these posts?)

When I go to share my activity it doesn't give me the option to share a transparent clip of my stats, it only shows a link URL. I've tried removing my privacy restrictions, reinstalling etc but not joy. Any advice?

HeloSince today I can't give kudo's anymore. A few hours ago I still could but now no more. Can anybody tell me why ?ThxBart

So annoying having to input Tai Chia as Yoga when it is much more cardio intensive (at least it is when I do it!

   All, is this some kind of bug? Heart rate font colour is in black (same as background) and not visible since last update. Visible when in auto pause and the background colour changes in yellow 🙄.

Hey all,I have been trying to get this figured out and I am stumped.  My emergency contact accidentally responded "off" to the automated Strava Beacon text and now they are no longer receiving my strava beacons when I head out for a run.  Anyone else dealt with this?  Do you have any ideas on how to reenable the strava beacon texts? I use a garmin and have had no previous issues.Thanks!

 Receiving vague error message “Something went wrong. Please try again.” 

New activity type tags like Recovery, and With Pet etc are not showing in my strava app and also on desktop website version. How to get that tag options? I tried reinstalling app also and it has latest version too.

When editing an activity from the listing (https://www.strava.com/athlete/training), ticking the checkbox “Commute” does not work.Furthermore, this works from the android app, but taking the same activity from the web and saving it again removes the tag

Waarom kan ik mijn hartslag niet zien als ik mijn activiteiten upload? Deze wordt nochtans gemeten via mijn Garmin die weldegelijk verbonden is met mijn Strava. Bij de verborgen details zijn deze ook niet te zien. Ik kon ergens ook kiezen om al mijn vorige activiteiten aantepassen, maar dat heeft niets veranderd. Kan iemand mij helpen?
