Strava Features Chat

In the ride segment https://www.strava.com/segments/35185845?filter=overall the first place is an indoor ride https://www.strava.com/activities/4587913987How can such a thing be possible? From the look of the ride and its constant speed it really was indoor. Is that some glitch where a virtual ride was tagged wrongly?

I takes two tries when I edit an activity to change the map type.   Why?

I'm sure the new feature called best efforts is helpful to many users.  However, I am a para-athlete and am unable to run.  That being the case, I have no information showing in best efforts despite the fact that I workout with my handcycle 5-6 days a week. Is there any way to change what category the best efforts displays.

I have seen friends and family that get a strava monthly recap email on the 5th of the next month that gives stats and info about what they did. I do not get this email and it’s not going to spam or anything. I checked email preferences and I have everything on. What can I do? 

Why don't gravel rides count towards the monthly cycling distance challenges???

Hello, on all activities of mine and those of followers I now have white grid squares instead of photos of the actual activity.  I have logged in and out of strava app and in and out on my phone. is there a solution to this? Thanks! 

The acitivties that I record via my Strava app are not synced with the Strava website (only my bike ride of last week) the fitness activity and walking activities are not synced. This also causes troubles with the connection to Garmin.Does anyone know this problem and found a solution yet?

I had to reset my phone and i forgot my account to login. I found my monthly payment in my google account but when i try to log in its a new account? I would be happy if i get my old account back. All my activities or on that. 

In Strava Routeplanner (which STILL is not available on mobile..), there seems to be no way to temporarilly hide the planned route to see the features underneath. This needs to be added. This is almost standard practice by now if you look e.g. at Komoot or BRouter Web which both use "M" as a hotkey to temporarilly hide the route while the key is pressed.

Hi,From what I've read you are using Mapbox as the company to provide mapping and they are using OSM for surface types. I would like to ask you how often do you update your surface types in Strava Routes? I'm asking because I wonder if it's worth editing surfaces in my neighborhood so it's visible for everyone in Strava Routes. Sometimes it's quite annyoing when drawing a route, riding it and after that someones says that you could go nicer path somewhere because it is smooth tarmac and on the Routes it was marked as dirt..Cheers,Filip

I've already contacted Strava support about this issue but got nowhere.The the past couple of months the app (android , and yes already uninstalled and reinstalled and still have same issue) randomly will not save map type or commute tag, it will just save as a standard ride.So this morning whilst saving my commute ride I notice is I choose ride as commute and then set map type the app removes commute option, so I then reset ride as commute but app then removed map type choice?? Anyone else having this issue? Tom

My phone app says my fitness is 63; my PC says it's 56. I not as interested in the absolute numbers (just the trends), I'm just surprised they don't match.On my PC the data goes back to Jan 2016 but the phone only displays back two years. Even at two years ago, the fitness numbers are different. In 2016, I was simply riding and had no power meter or smart trainer. Starting in Nov 2017, I had a smart trainer and in May this year I bought power meters. I've been using a HRM the entire time.I do understand the smart trainer and power meters will make a difference - measuring real power output vs. estimated numbers. But shouldn't this all be consistent across the two platforms?

Hi please how can I verify my strava account and thank you very much 

Hi i cannot see my or anyone elses maps on strava please can you help thanks  

Most of the information on my mobile feed started not to show since 1 or 2 months. Distance, pace, elevation gain, achievements, description areas dont show on my phone which has full HD resolution but these fields are visible perfectly on my WQHD resolution phone. This problem started to occure after an update 1 or 2 months ago. Before that i had no issue with these fields on FHD display phone. Attached is the 2 different screen shots taken from my 2 different devices.   

Hey,Strava has always traditionally been focused on Cyclists, but more and more features are coming out for additional sports. I would like Strava to better support Multi sport, in both activities and athletes stats/data.One way I would like to see this done is allowing the user to set HR Zones per sport type. Currently its a one size fits all which does not fit for athletes who cycle and run.Having this support will also allow Strava to give much better relative effort data. An athlete  might make a habit of going on 2 hour cycle rides Strava sees this athlete can perform for 2 hours, but it doesn't care which sport. On another day the Athlete may go for a 20min run which exhausts them much more than the regular ride they do. But Strava doesn't care, Strava sees they have only done 16% of the work they typically do, so it marks it as a low effort, something it was not. I can't say for sure this is the way Strava works, but this is based on my own

In the Kinomap application, I cycle on indoor custom routes. I configure the routes on https://gpx.studio/ and then export and import the GPX files into Kinomap. In Strava, when I add the Indoor Cycling tag to an activity, the Elevation disappears. Why does this happen? I've noticed that there are many discussions for and against Elevation, and I'll provide an example to contribute to this controversy.In 30 minutes, I can cover 10km with 400m of elevation, and still in 30 minutes, I can cover 20km with only 10m of elevation.

When importing GPX file in strava.com/routes/new, activity is always changed as "cycling". So when I want to import GPX files for my trails, as they are produced by event organizers, the trace is modified by Strava to follow other ways. That's very problematic to prepare my trails. Does anywone have the same issue ? Any idea to solve it ?Thanks ! 

Average power for the whole ride at the end of Power Curve is always lower than Average Power for the ride on the activity page.  Why is that?  Is it because Power Curve does not filter out stops?  Is there an option to filter out stops from the Power Curve like there is an option to exclude non-moving sections from the Average Power calculation?Thanks,Haris

The segment is this: https://www.strava.com/segments/19368887My efforts show for my stats for the segment (13) and for PRs, but when you click the Local Legends stats it shows only one female athlete as having completed the segment in the last 90 days and that person is showing only 2 efforts. I do not appear at all. I'm assuming other women have also completed this segment in the last 90 days as well. 

Hello,Lately my strava app doesn't show the names and details of the rides on the feed. It only shows the map and the date on my activity page and on the feed page some people's rides are only map and some others are normalDoes anyone else has the same issue?  I'm using android appIt only shows map and the date on my activity page and on the feed some people's rides are only map and some others are normal
