Strava Features Chat

I’m a club admin and I was excited when I saw this feature pop up on my phone - Score!  This will be useful!  And then I was disappointed.  The feature says “Get a snapshot of who attended, and use that info to grow your Club.”, but this is very misleading.  Here’s why:It uses as +/- 15 minute window from the event start time to find riders who joined.  That’s a HUGE mistake.  We often have 40+ people show up for rides and always allow 5-minutes grace period before starting, THEN we gather everyone together to provide ride information, THEN we organize into pace groups, etc.  Sometimes we manage this within 15-minutes of the official ride start time (really gathering time).  Sometimes we don’t.  The time window needs to be longer.  Alternatively, you need to let club administrators set the time window.  Or you need us to have a separate publicly listed start time (i.e., what is shown on the event RSVP) and an anticipated start time (e.g., 10 minutes later) that Club Admins can set behi

I wanted to set up a challenge of number of days active but I can’t see the option, is there one? Or am I just missing it?Thanks! 

I think there is an error in your “Athlete Intelligence” script.Today I walked with an elevation of 154m and AI says that that is nearly the double of my typical 30-day elevation gain of 39m. As far as I remember the double of 39 is 78. So that’s not even close 😉   

Has this happened to anyone else? I logged an activity and checked my fitness score and the entire plot is 10 points lower than it was yesterday.  I even checked a screenshot I had from the beginning of the year and the entire plot for the past 2 years is 10 points lower? cheersbart 

Please can you roll back the new route planning as it is so rubbish. I want the old one back. It incorrectly categorises roads as off road. Really unhelpful as routes which are totally road come out as 63% unspecified. Using the old version it knew they were road. Please don't launch new versions until they work! Roll it back until it's actually better!!!!!

I have an active group challenge in which we are attempting a cumulative distance of 2,000 by any activity type. however the challenge doesn’t show cumulative distance? where is this shown or do I have to add the individual totals up myself? And if not, why not? Surely that’s the whole point!

Hi everyone. Is there any hack how to retire an added component to specific date at my bike in the Strava application. Here is the situation, I changed a chain 14 days ago, but I forget to retire the previous one on the day of change. When I want retire the old one, it counts all the kilometers it did not do. thank you

Since the latest visual update I miss the dots on completed track , which usually marked the completed km s and helped to estimate distance of upcoming destinations. 

I’ve just bought a Subscription via the App on my Apple. It runs for a year. All my family have just started running so I want to upgrade to a Family Plan so we can enjoy the journey together. But, having read you can’t upgrade, I need to cancel my new account and wait a year for it to expire, then sign up to a Family Account? Seems daft… Can I cancel, then use my same account details to sign up a new Family Plan, without loosing my runs so far?

I invite you to look at the Meije on the Strava map.France, North of the Massif des Ecrins, SE of Grenoble.This mountain is funny, especially in 3D 😂 (bugged, main summit is turned down and makes a 1000 meters hole instead… digging to 2800m instead of the 4000m it should have)

Olá, preciso de ajuda. Sou assinante pagante e desde o dia 12/09/2025 estou enfrentando um problema. Realizei uma corrida de 5 km com tempo de 28:47 (tempo de movimento) que deveria ser registrada como meu novo RP1. Porém, o Strava não atualizou corretamente e continua mostrando apenas recordes anteriores. Já abri múltiplos tickets de suporte, mas todos foram fechados automaticamente sem solução. Estou anexando prints que comprovam o erro. Solicito, por favor, que este caso seja revisado manualmente.(Hello, I need help. I am a paying subscriber and since September 12, 2025 I have been facing an issue. I completed a 5 km run with a moving time of 28:47 which should have been recorded as my new PR1. However, Strava did not update it correctly and still only shows older records. I have already opened multiple support tickets, but all were automatically closed without a solution. I am attaching screenshots that prove the error. I kindly request that this case be manually reviewed.) 

I use Fenix 6S to record my outdoor rowing. Sometimes it shows up in training log as a row but most times just as 'workout'.  I can't figure out why it does this as I follow exact same steps each time.Screenshot example shows 28Jul 17k row in Blue but 29Jul is also a row but showing small grey dot and no distance.  This happens most of the time and there are plenty more examples.  (11, 12 and 13 Jul are all rows). This makes the training log useless for me. 

I walk, take a bus or train, then restart to walk. I would like Strava to calculate only the part where I walk but I didn’t find a solution except start-finish and then start-finish a second time. And then add the 2 distances, the 2 times,… and how can I handle the average bmp and the rest? I tried using Pause during my bus/train use, but Strava still considers that I walked during the Pause and add the m or km to the total. I don’t want that! 

Hi runners,I cancelled my subscription as my partner suggested we join the family plan. However, when she sends me the invititation, the page reads that i cannot join the plan and need to live in the same country.We are both set to the same city and country in our Strava profiles. Did anybody else encounter this problem? Any solutions? Thank you guys! It somehow feels a bit demotivating to run and not have my premium features.Kind regards,JJ

HelloSince version 428.0.1 of the Strava app on iOS, the power zones graphs are corrupted it looks like Z6-7 is displayed as Z1, Z5 is displayed as Z3…Anybody else experienced this so far? 

I follow my brother and he follows me. He is a subscriber. Recently he posted a screenshot of the map of his last activity, swimming in a lake. I accessed Strava to have a better look of it but HE DOESN’T have any activity! 

I’m trying to plan a circular running route. It works well until the route comes close to the finishing point, when it automatically reroutes to take the shortest distance between the two, undoing all the planning I’ve done. I tried inserting lots of waypoints to force it to stick to the route I want, but it has a mind of its own

My app interface is in Italian. But now when I record an activity instead of Passeggiata mattutina I have Morning walk. All the activities’s titles are in English. 

Hey team,It looks like I accidentally turned off the Ai analytics feature. Is there a way to switch it back on?Thanks

50km ride with only 11k logged I stopped to take a photo from the lock screen and I forgot that THIS always happens so I lost most of my 50km ride. I’m pissed because I really pushed on to try to test my form in the last 15km and they were just not recorded,I’ve lost LOADS of training rides like this. Can you not fix it?I’m a software developer. Do you need a little help? 

It’s interesting to see the Best Efforts in an athlete’s profile, however, in some cases the data is corrupted by inclusion of flagged Activities.  For example, here’s some data for an athlete in my local area which shows some rather impressive Best Efforts, such as cycling for 5 miles at 126 mph (!!)… If I click on the links to see the related Activity it shows they have all been flagged (hardly surprising).  Surely Activities that have been flagged in this way should not continue to be included in an athlete’s Best Efforts ?

Good evening,Is it possible to give directions in maps, like turn left in 200 meters? Today i rode a route which contained a few roads which i had to ride more than once. Then it is not possible to see if you have to turn left or right at the end of the road or at a t split when both are part of the route.Thanks, René Kleverwal Netherlands

Hi all, can someone explain how to get rid of the annoying medals on my route maps after a run (the ones that say ‘second best time on Idiot Ave’ etc)Thanks!Mark

You can’t filter by Pickleball in the Training Log. Pickleball also has some odd behaviour as activities. When you view the activity by itself, the symbol is for “Workout”. When you view the activity in the feed, it’s correctly “Pickleball”.   

New user here. I see the section at the bottom of the screenshots which implies trail reports, but it looks like it’s for reporting a violation of some kind when I click through. Is this actually a section where people’s reports of violations show up or is it intended to be trail reports like Trailforks? A user on Reddit has some insight but is this a relic of a previous feature or something that will be coming?
