Unwanted pictures in my Strava feed

Suddenly I'm getting lots of pictures in my feed from people I do not follow. Seems to be coming from clubs I am a member of. Almost exclusively pictures of bikes. Some days so many that it feels like real spam. Is there a way to filter these out or is quitting the clubs my only options?

Creating routes

Sorry, Strava team, what have you done on creating routes? What worked perfectly before now doesn't! Shifting proposed way between two route points to another route does not work correctly anymore. Sometimes it's possible, sometimes not. And 'Undo' also does not do what one expect. Please keep it simple as it was before! Thanks very much in advance, Rainer.

Segment Privacy

Many cyclist friends are abandoning Strava because of the segments. They would like to be able to make the times on the segments private but still leave the activity visible. Introducing a function that makes the times on the segments private would solve the problem.

No best effort data showing on run

I’ve done 2 runs tonight and on my second one I cannot see any best effort data at all and it’s isn’t showing on app or website. It was a 3.25km run so presumably long enough to get at least some data. I can see the best effort data for everyone else who i ran with and it is showing for my first run of the night but not the second.segment info and pace info all showing fine, just nothing on best efforts… very strange! Help.

Flagging - a review

I've been flagging a lot of activities lately, and finding the entire process very difficult due to only being allowed to flag 10 activities under a 24 hour period (starting from when the last flag was raised). This is the most problematic on Walking segments, with users either accidentally logging activities that should be runs/bike, forgetting to turn off when they get in the car, or worse just doing it deliberately, but the volume of people doing it is very high - over COVID this became very problematic as most of the data I see of people abusing leader boards stems from 2020-2021.Can we review this process as the segment leaderboards are frequently abused and the limit to the flag feature does not allow easy community validation, which Strava insists is the only way to manage these Segment Leaderboards. Some suggestions below1. Flag Limit- Increase the number of flags available- Alternatively, stagger the number of flags permissible relative to previous flagging results. e.g.

Live Segments

Is there any way to limit the live segments notifications to just the starred segments and not the popular ones? As I ride it's just a constant stream of live segment notices that I don't have any interest in, yet to clear the screen means taking a hand off of the handlebars which isn't always practical.

Export Est Power

Strava guesses power - "Est Power". Is there a way to export these predictions to a fit or gpx file or some other?

KOM and top 10 cups

There is a lot of fake KOM and cups these days where athletes forget the bike computer in the car or use an E-bike. these records could be easily detected. I suggest Strava to be more tough on these records by implementing some double checks like heart rate vs. power if someone wants to be in top 10 for a segment the results should be accepted only if there is more metrics than speed available, a power result or heart rate to validate. also it should be easier to reposrt a fake achievement

Cycling Pull data from Group Rides

Be a great feature to create Pull data from Group rides.  Could use Fly By data to determine who from the group is on the lead and therefore Pulling, and capture the data for when they are on the front (Power, Speed, HR, etc) and create a summary listing each Pull as well as a total/average for all Pulls.

Power curve issue with 'Last 6 Weeks'

I looked at my power curve comparing 'All of 2022' to 'Last 6 weeks' and discovered that a ride that I did 10 days ago shows up in 'All of 2022' curve, but not in the 'Last 6 Weeks' curve. Is this a bug or is there some logical explanation for it?

Error when viewing segments on maps

I would like to report an error when browsing segments on maps (https://www.strava.com/maps/segments PC web version) when a person is blocked. When we select segments on the map and then the KOM belongs to a blocked person, it is not possible to enter such a segment. The browser throws an error or displays a white page (each Chrome, Firefox, Edge). Please fix the error, I don't need to watch the blocked person, but I would like to view the segments 🙂

Can Strava track treadmill or gym stationary bike activities?

I am currently doing my workouts in a properly air-conditioned gym to avoid excessive sweating, which can be harmful to my head since I underwent a hair transplant last week. I must track my workout and other activities as I need to monitor my daily energy and calories burned. However, I am working out in a static location where my GPS location remains the same. Can you suggest a suitable mode for tracking my activities in Strava?

features of different types of activities

Strava has voice notifications for mileage in some but  not all activities.  I like to know when I hit each mile when I'm walking and hiking, but that feature is only enabled for running.  Can that be changed?  In addition, auto pause works well for cycling, but is not available for walking or hiking.  Can that also be changed?  I note that the Nike app has both of those features.

Only one person in my feed issue

I follow about 40 people on strava, never had an issue. I followed a new person and now all I see is all their activities and no one else's. Any ideas? Obviously if I click on my feed, all my activities are displayed.

Heatmap Gravel is empty

Hello everyone, I don't understand the recent evolution about the gravel Heatmap. I had a lot of traces around my house, the gravel heatmap was rich. Right now, it's empty. It was possible to trace a track thank to heatmap but now it's just impossible. It's a shame.Do you have the same problem ? The heatmap works  only near the big gravel spot . Thank you for your help.SC

Hiking speed in mph

Suddenly hiking speed in mph on the main screen has been replaced with steps. Analysis shows pace which is not something hikers care about. Segments show mph but not the entire hike. Can’t imagine why this change after all these years

Incorrect PR / PB notification message second best run for a third best run on certain distance

I've noticed that the notification of a PR / PB isn't correct when I've ran my third best PR / PB on a certain distance it shows in the notification it's second best, while in the distance PR / PB overview it does actually show as third best.

Illegal segments

Is there a way of flagging an illegal segment, e.g.Clearly states cycling forbidden,without actually riding the segment yourself illegally? I know a few illegal and dangerous to Walker segments that should be flagged but I seem to only be able to flag ones I've ridden

Add option to see total kms that I ran (running) this year

I've noticed when I check profiles of friends on Strava that I can see on their Profile the amount of kms they have ran this year (e.g. 2024). However when I do the same for my own profile this doesn't appear. I can switch between week, month, year on my profile but even when I set it to year only the stats show per month but no total amount of kms is shown. Can this please be added.
