Strava Features Chat

After I updated the app today, my training diary and progress graph have switched to display in Km, despite opting for Miles in settings. Activities in the feed still show in miles. I’ve toggled from miles>Km>mile in settings a number of times but the training diary and graph still show Kms. Wtf?

Either I recently changed my settings inadvertently or the goals have disappeared from the dashboard page.  If you navigate to DASHBOARD / GOALS - that block HTML on the right that shows you goals used to be on the side of the dashboard screen.  Now it's gone.  Maybe it's a performance thing, or maybe they want more clicks.  Either way I used to like seeing there.  And sorry if it's me changing a setting somewhere. plpinto 

Is it possible to show the organizer of a group activity as the group itself rather than the individual who posted the specific event?

**found out that it's a private route which I can't change to public**I have been sharing my created routes with my riding partners for forever but with the new update there doesn't seem to be an easy way to share my routes with my riding partners.  Where can I share via text like before on an apple device?

Tried to create a route the last two weeks and it detours me into roads I choose not to go..In other words, route creation is useless because Strava changes my route and will not let me select roads wish to ride.  I have looked every place for a fix and toggled everything to change preferences.  Strava support said use manual route...which is possible.  HELP

I navigate using saved routes on my android app. In the last few days the app has stopped opening my saved routes. I've tried on two different mobiles and get the same message "server not responding please try again later" Saved routes will open using my windows laptop. I've tried logging out and back on but to no avail.

Is it possible to manually input training impulse on the Freshness and Fitness page? Power meter wasn't working on a recent ride, so no entry was made on this Strava page. A significant uptick in fitness would have occurred if the data had been registered. So my fitness curve is not reflective of actual fitness. On Training Peaks, data can be manually inputted such that it adjusts fitness based on your estimates. Even if not totally accurate, it seems better than a curve which doesn't move at all based on the lack of data. Thanks.

As a Strava user for over 10 years and several as a subscriber member; it is truly disappointing to continue to use the app and find Strava has removed access to every possible feature to those whom are not a subscriber! Sad that an app that many use to better their health by monitoring their activities and search for motivation to improve; you only find disappointment that every feature is a must subscription driven! Did you ever think of young students who are staring out a sport and they cannot afford a subscription. Strava has millions of paying subscribers sad you are so money hungry! 

I would like to start Jan - Dec public challange. How I set it up ? Thanks for support. Best. Richard

I'm not sure which API/Mapping service that Strava is currently using, but it is impossible for me to use the privacy feature to hide my home address.I live in Bahrain and the address system here is messy, so identifying an exact address is pretty difficult. Previously I could hide an address using GPS coordinates but that doesn't seem to work any more either.Anyone else facing these issues or have a better solution for me? I'm not really interested in hiding the start/end of all my activities as I don't really care when I start away from home.

When filtering for "all time" the fitness graph seems to bug out  

Hi all,Can anyone help me get rid if the blue shaded circle?.  It happens every time I create a route and allow Strava to access my location. Makes the underlying map difficult to see.Thanks.

After riding 670km in one go over the weekend, the 'my longest ride' feature of strava has not updated. How can i fix this?

I Zwift a lot, even during warmer months. I like the controlled environment and training aspect of it all. I noticed when viewing another athlete in Strava, the "Side by Side Comparison" does not reflect this (very real and full of blood, sweat, and tears) data for the last 4 weeks (maybe all year/all time).Actually, it appears there is no way to merge Virtual Rides or even display Virtual Rides for last 4 weeks, even on "My Stats" on my profile page. The top of my profile page has a large font "Last 4 Weeks 6 Total Activities", but "My Stats" and "Side by Side Comparison" has "Last 4 Weeks Activities / Week 2" 

If I log into STRAVA and look at the global heatmap, I just get a blank page. Can anybody tell me what I need to do to see the global heatmap?

On one of my weeks in the "You" Progress view, the Elevation metric is truncated (it shows "1,654..." instead of "1,654 ft")This doesn't happen on any other data points that I can find. Just a random thought, I wonder if it's related to the duration being exactly "2hr" (with no minutes to display). That's the only unique thing about this data point that isn't true of the other weeks that I can see.Anyway, hope you can fix this, thanks.

My phone turned off while I was record activity. After turning on the phone (I do not have a SIM card in it), incorrect date was displayed (31st February 2022). When I turned it back on, Strava showed the time with "-". After recording activity and correcting the date and time on my phone, the workout was saved, but I can't find it anywhere. Is it possible that due to an incorrect date, the training was not included at all? Where can I find it? 

The Strava app keeps showing 50+ badge notifications and it is really never more than 3-5.  This is SO annoying.  

Bonjour les plans cyclisme son indiqué être des plans en salle ? Ça indique quoi ...pour home trainer ? On ne peut donc l'utiliser pour la route ?  TRANSLATION: Hello, are the cycling plans indicated to be indoor plans? What does that indicate...for a home trainer? So we can't use it for the road?

If you open some Strava activity being logged out (e.g. use private mode), you'll notice that title, map, photos and even comments are shown. But description is hidden.Why? Does anybody know what to tune in your account to show it?E.g. https://www.strava.com/activities/10120639819 

When requesting a bulk export of your data, there are missing translations in the 'activities.csv' file:<span class="translation_missing" title="translation missing: en-US.lib.export.portability_exporter.activities.horton_values.type">Type</span><span class="translation_missing" title="translation missing: en-US.lib.export.portability_exporter.activities.horton_values.start_time">Start Time</span><span class="translation_missing" title="translation missing: en-US.lib.export.portability_exporter.activities.horton_values.jump_count">Jump Count</span><span class="translation_missing" title="translation missing: en-US.lib.export.portability_exporter.activities.horton_values.total_grit">Total Grit</span><span class="translation_missing" title="translation missing: en-US.lib.export.portability_exporter.activities.horton_values.avg_flow">Avg Flow</span><span class="translation_missing" title=

I have scoured notification settings but there isnt an option for turn off patronising comments. Does anyone know what they come under? 

Hi, I'm 2 seconds off the KOM for a short segment near me. (34 s) Today I had another try, but on my return home / end, & fill in the Strava report, I found it no longer exists...(The KOM holder has just moved to Spain, by the way).Can Segments be taken down or removed....? And do people do this...? TIA Ian 

So I was in a challenge (contest) that ended at midnight. I logged my final activity shortly before and was in the lead. Midnight came and went and I was in 1st place! I was happy I won and went to bed.I woke up this morning, and I can see now that I’m no longer #1. Nearly an hour after midnight, someone had  backdated a new entry, logging an additional activity, and that pushed me to 2nd place. How is that fair? Why does the Strava app not have something in place to prevent this? Now the admin of our challenge will see the other guy in 1st place and declare him the winner 

For the first time in several weeks I tried to create a route a few days ago on my iMac using Chrome and some way into the creation of the route it’s like the webpage refreshed and cleared the entire page, it was completely blank. The only thing showing in my browser was the URL. I then tried it again, and the same thing happened. I gave up.I’ve just tried creating a route again today, this time on my iPad in Safari and it has done the same thing - part way into the creation of the route the page goes blank. I really need to create this route prior to my long run in a couple of hours so I’ve saved it, and keep going back and editing it to extend it because i can’t seem to create it in one go without this problem. It is happening over and over and over. I can’t even seem to add 1km to it without the page going blank. It has made route creation completely unusable for me.
