Reordering profile main activities

Unsure why the default sport selected (running) isn’t the main graph displayed on my profile and is instead something done secondary (weight training). is there an option to customize what is displayed on initial viewing? thanks

Strava Segments

I have been a strava member for a while. Ever since 2020 during Covid, I have based my entire speed work around taking Strava segments in a crazy HIIT workout. It has helped me immensely in lowering my marathon times to below 2:50 now as a 50 year old. I used to look up different strava segments in different areas and map out my runs. I can't do that anymore with the updates because barely any of the segments are showing up anymore. Plus they show up randomly. I have a segment in my neighborhood run by 5 people that shows up but not the segment that over 2000+ people have run. It is really random. I wish Strava would go back to showing more of the segments. I have been a member for a while, but this literally defeats the purpose of me even using Strava anymore. Hopefully this is something being addressed.

Hiding an area

Hey. So i am trying to figure how to make a custom area I ALWAYS want to hide. I have a friend building a trail and trying to keep it on the semi down low, nothing to do with owners etc.. It's just to keep the Tree burning rubbish dumping A/holes off of it. Sometimes i might pass by and do a wee check up on how it's progressing but i'd like to hide that area with a 2km bubble. However there is no postcode, street or address that I can use (not the woods but pic for example). I happly use the the Hide address feature to hide my house, partner and family. Those addresses are fix post codes but this is not.Is there a way to do it?

Export historical bulk .fit data for Coros upload

I've reached out to support a few times with no response, so I'm trying here too.I was a long time Nike Run Club user, and I recently got a Coros watch. In trying to get my historical data from NRC to upload to Coros, I was unable to obtain .fit files from NRC. The data must be in .fit for Coros to accept it and populate prior activities. I've only been able to obtain the data in .tcx, a format per Coros that wont work, even though their upload page says it will.That brings me to Strava - I signed up and entered all my NRC data into Strava, hoping it would sync with Coros. Unfortunately, it seems Coros doesn't "back-populate" the old activites, only new ones in Strava. I see that on new activities, I can export one-by-one as .fit files, but those are already synced from Coros to Strava. I'm really hoping I can get Strava to export the prior acivites I manually entered as .fit files or find help in converting my NRC and Strava .tcx exports to .fit, so I can have a full history in C

Strava needs longer activity

As of last 14/05/24, I always receive a message on my Android phone" strava needs a longer activity to upload and analyse", no matter if I walk 1 Km or 5,5Km. I tried some suggestions of using sync button, but I could not find it

[KNOWN ISSUE] Zoom is broken while editing a route on Mobile App with waypoint selected

While editing a route when a waypoint is already selected to be moved, if I pinch to zoom I'm immediately zoomed way out such that my waypoint is in the ocean and I'm viewing the entirety of the US and Mexico. At that point I can't even zoom back in. Seems zoom just isn't supported while moving a waypoint. This is made worse by the fact that if I zoomed in before moving a waypoint, when I select a waypoint for moving, I'm zoomed out slightly by what seems like a minimum zoom factor. This is making it extremely hard to edit a map on mobile. Strava for Android version 358.12.

Bosnia and Herzegovina not named in activities under user names

Hello!On activities that took place in Bosnia and Herzegovina, under the name of a user, it states "location, Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina" or "location, Republika Srpska". It doesn't say, for example, "Mostar Bosnia and Herzegovina" nor "Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina" like in other countries.Problem is: it states the name of an entity, not the name of a country.In USA for example, it doesn't say "Los Angeles, California" but "Los Angeles, USA". Or in Germany, it doesn't say "Munich, Bavaria" but "Munich, Germany".Every country has some regions, states, provinces, cantons etc, but I've noticed that only Bosnia and Herzegovina isn't named on Strava.How can we fix this?

Why?

Why are propeller heads always changing UIs? The previous progress tab was awesome. Everything in one simple view. Whoever designed this turd of a tab is clearly not a user of the app. Boo hiss. It’s total **bleep** 💩

No Data Available for Apple Watch 8

Hope this is the right place to post this question.  I have had been using Strava with my Apple Watch for around a yer. I get all the cardio data other than Cardio Recovery. Oddly, I have received data from it on two random occasions, for three completely different types of runs (twice in a year).  My Apple Watch 7 was able to give me cardio recovery data, so not sure why the Series 8 isn't with Strava workotus. If anyone can advise on how to get data for cardio recovery from Strava workouts ontothe health app on my phne, that would be much appreciated.

Obvious Missing Features That Annoy Me

Some things that bug me about Strava. Obvious things to add, not sure why they don't? See more than 20 activities at once on Activities page See Pace/Mile on list of activities page Label runs "Boston Running" or "Los Angles Running" like Garmin does instead of "Morning Run" or "Lunch Run". Far more interesting to see where I ran rather than the time of day Why can't I see someone's full activity list on their profile? It's like going to someone's Facebook profile and only being able to see their last 3 posts. This is so annoying..... Easily search activities: I want to be able to quickly find a run I did in Tampa in 2019, but it's like finding a needle in a haystack on Strava. When I sort a Segment Leaderboard and I'm on page 8 and I click on a person's name to view their profile, when I click "Back" it goes back to page 1 and I need to click to go back to where I left off. Would be great to see more info when scrolling through photos like time, run associated with the p

Bug in Create activity using GPX File

When I create and activity with GPX file, it calculates Time and distance itself which looks like total time, no moving time. So each time I do entry using gpx file it shows more time. I'm also sending moving time from here, but it seems strava does not use that. Can you please help me with this issue?

Privacy: Visibility radius failure

I was under impression that by setting a visibility radius around my home address I'll hide any activity within that radius from the map. But it turns out that applies only to start and end of an activity. But what if someone stops by the home in the middle of a run or ride, for example to drink or refill water, or for any other reason? It turns out that is perfectly visible on the map if the activity is public. The right solution would be to hide any part of activity from the map within the privacy radius - not just the start and the end.

Pace & distance not tracking during activity

  my distance and pace for some reason isn’t being tracked during the activity. However, when I save the activity leading it to post the run, it then shows the distance I ran and pace I was running at (rest of data). Can someone please help me why my data won’t show during my run it’s really annoying.

Why does Strava change routes automatically?

Good morning everybody,I create a lot of tracks for my weekend runs, and since I started using Strava for that I started to notice that it was becoming increasingly difficult, to the point where I stopped using it. At the moment I use it to save tracks from friends of mine on Strava, which I save to run there later. I started to notice that when running on these tracks saved on Strava, there were routes that didn't make sense.In the example below we have:Red is the original route where I downloaded the gpx direction to my computer.Blue is the route I saved on Strava, in My Routes and later downloaded to my computer.It doesn't make sense for these changes to exist, as I didn't even edit the route, I just saved it.Is there a solution for this?Thanks

Timer not working for workouts and yoga

When I record an activity such as a workout or a yoga session, the Strava timer doesn’t seem to work properly — a 55 minute aerobics session was logged as being 7 mins long. A 45 min yoga session was logged as being 26 mins long. My device is an iPhone 14 and I’m using the latest version of the Strava app — 351.0.0 — which was rolled out two days back.I’ve been facing this issue for a week now. Can someone please explain why there’s a glitch?
