Strava Features Chat

Below is a screenshot of random ghost waypoints that I yoinked off the route trying to reroute…  What am I doing wrong? I’ve been making maps for 9 years already using this editor and I never ran into this issue..      

Saved a friend’s bike map. I want to change a few of the roads he chose along the way, so I chose to edit a copy of his map. I can change the starting point easily enough, but I can’t seem to add new waypoints along the way in order to change the route.Is there a way to do that?

I was recording a long distance ride when my iPhone died. Restarted iPhone after recharge. Restarted Strava to see if my recording had been lost, but all I get is the spinning wheel and app unlocked up. I don’t want to lose the recording progress that I’d made before the power disruption. 

A lot of people use t.ex. Zwift both for training and races. It should be possible e to set the type of activity to "Race" for virtual rides too. Looking at my Monthly fitness, it's not possible to get a good view on how the race period affected my fitness. 

Is there a option where i can create a consistency challenge. For eg, I want the group to be phycially active for 21 out of 30 days in month for a minimum of 30 days. I do not see an option to create this type of challenge even though i have a strava subscription.Is that correct or am i missing somthing. Second if I am able to create a challenge how do i invite the whole group instead of sending it individually to each member? Can someone guide if if this is possible and how to achieve it.?DO we need any third party plug ins to do this?

I submitted my request to download my data yesterday about 24 hours ago and I still have not received my link to download my data 😥Does anyone have any idea how long this takes?I think I did it about a year ago and it was within a few minutes. Thanks.

My activity is set to public/everyone but is not showing up in anyone else’s feed.https://strava.app.link/Kpi2fD0wLRb  

I am baffled 😯 by Strava at the moment and a little disappointed 😔 to. I couldn’t get Zwift &Strava to link ended up doing the manual route. Deleted Strava and Zwift several times etc etc etc. yesterday did a 5km ride to see if anyone from Strava had waved a magic 🪄 and responded to one of the several tickets I have sent in. No luck and no sync 😖 i then did a 20km and i could not believe my  👀s it synced with Zwift. So I added some photos and made a comment uploaded it and appears for a moment then I can’t see it again on the page where my followers are my followers can see it because they are giving me kudos. After a while I opened Strava again and it is now on the you list of activities but still not visible to me on the open page with followers. Grrrr

It seems like saving routes isn't working. The route is created but then does not appear in the route list

I ran my longest run this morning of 6.01 Miles. Garmin also noted it was my PR in the 5K but when it uploaded to Strava, none of this was recognized and the overall time, distance and pace are so different? 

I’m trying to use strava audio queues from my apple watch SE but I only have pace and distance audio queues in the run options. I gave all permissions regarding heart rate. All my runs have heart rate charts and everything, its just not showing up as an option for audio cues. (Fitness and motion is on and all that). Is there a fix to this? I have a premium subscription as well.

I am trying to use the strava app on a pixel watch 2. But the screen goes off after a few seconds on the watch and I have to press the button to show the screen again.Its not really useable like that so is there any way to force the screen to stay on when using the watch app to record ?I already have Always On Display set to On

Is there anyway we can get workout the strong app to sync with strava? 

Hi, I'm getting a server error in many parts of the app for instance:when trying to upgrade to premiumwhen trying to check the leaderboardwhen trying to select a route to follow and in many other parts I tried deleting app data and cache, logging out and restarting my phone. I even changed my Internet connection, nothing worked. I'm using a Galaxy S22 Ultra with One UI 6.1 and Android 14 

why does this feature use standard maps? Usually it uses satellite maps. Is there a solution for this? 

How to save route map from activity as image from the web browser version?

Bonjour, est il possible de savoir si la planification d'itinéraire de strava sera identique a celle de fatmap un jour???depuis l'arret de fatmap, il est difficile de creer un parcours aussi bien avec strava!!!!Sur fatmap on pouvait tracer sur une carte ign, en n'etant pas obligé de suivre une route, ou chemin.....on pouvait tracer en hors piste ou sur un chemin qui n'existe pas sur les cartes.…est ce que ces fonctionnalités seront un jour sur Strava version mobile????

I'm a premium strava user and recently I can see my activity map when I open that activity. I can see the map in my feed but when I open it, map is no available.Also, when I try to see any other user that that day did the same segment, for example, strava app closes and it backs to the feed! Any idea? Thanks

This has been a huge flaw for years. It’s the main thing that kept me from paying for premium, and the thing that’s going to make me cancel it one of these days. “Moving Time” 1) Is worthless because it’s hopelessly inaccurate. When I’m on a trail with big elevation gain it could be off over 50%, and 2) It’s irrelevant. If it took you an hour to do the route because you stopped to tie your shoes and send a text… it still took you an hour. In what world does it matter hour how much time you were actually running vs stopping? If someone wants to know that irrelevant metric, let them search for that. Not make the rest of us who live in the real world have ridiculous times posted that bear no relation to reality. There’s no way it could be that difficult to actually make the correct time the default to display. 

Starting yesterday i cant post on anyclubs i made one post and it was the cleanest post ever and now i cant post and can only post activities. The reason why I said it was clean was because i looked it up and it couldve been flagged and thats why i cant post but i didnt post anything even remotely bad. I would like this fixed. Thanks cooper

I'm trying to view Flybys for today's (and prior) run(s). I'm not seeing anything load (see image below) and I'm seeing a unicode type character referenced in the orange section where I assume the route name would be. I do have Flybys privacy set to allow Everyone to view as well, in case that information is helpful.     Thank you!!

When you play videos that are uploaded to Strava (on your own profile or watching others) the last few seconds of the video get cut off. This usually only happens the first time you play it, and when you try to watch it again, you can see the final seconds of the video. I have only tested this on an iPhone.

Dear Team of Strava,first of all many thanks for your free service, for which I am totally satisfied.I subscribed the free trial version, but after checked how it works, frankly I am thinking to remain a free service user.Below I wanted summarize the points for which I am taking this decision, if they can be usefull for you.Main one: I was totally convinced that I could navigate with indications during my MTB route and was surprised once understood that any kind of alert was not in place on Strava. I am not talking about a exact route voice indicator, but at least a “bip” when you skip your turning point would be important. When I run an round trip on the same route, the return track line is hide by the blue color of the outward one. Would important that the predominant color remains always the orange one. The screen turns off automatically. So I have to touch it to see the route. I suggest to include this function on Strav

I made 3 "indoor rides" today with a couple of pauses using the STOP button on my Garmin Edge 530. It was saved after the third ride. The result in Garmin vs. Strava is: Obviously, in Strava the elapsed time is used in avg. speed calculation. This is a horrible bug. E.g. if concentrating exactly on avg. speed during an indoor cycling, the record is totally useless. Why the elapsed time is used in calculation instead of the moving time? It makes no sense.

Hi everyone,It has been almost one month since my safety contact reported not receiving beacons for my activities. My watch is Samsung Galaxy Watch5 Pro. Raised a ticket Request #3198908 but issue still remains up to today.I have removed the safety contact & re-added, as well as adding my own number & re-enabling beacon.Got a couple of beacons sent at first but stopped again.  Up to this very moment no beacons sent/received for the last week despite of being active, even a couple of hours ago! Are you also having issues with beacons not being sent?I will appreciate any help, thanks!
