New way of displaying segments


Forum|alt.badge.img+1

It seems Strava have been slowly sidelining the segments over the last few updates. The latest update has led to no specific segment link and no indication of Local Legend. Personally, this was the only feature that made Strava better than others. Without it, the app loses value for me. What do others think?

Is that a problem with the Android app? I can only speak for the website and the IOS app, everything about segments is there as usual and they even added segment achievement symbols in the activity map in IOS.

Interesting. Yes this refers to the Android app. Thanks for the reply.

This issue is why I’ve now come to the community hub. 

I use Strava on my iPhone and noticed the Segment Map got replaced with a automated visual map (exactly like you could do years ago with Relive), but you could still access your own or other atheletes Segment map from the best effort section, thats now been removed too! 

Segment view is the only real use I have for Strava and Strava Premium, seeing what segments I’ve been through and my times versus leaderboards, today or following. 

Is this the same issue you’re having @elbenio?

This is exactly my issue and you echo my sentiment about it being the most useful additional feature on Strava. It's loss reduces the appeal of Strava considerably.

Now I see it too, the “View Segments” link in the activity details has been removed from the Strava IOS app, some days ago it was still there. I hope that’s just a bug and not some of the strange decisions they made in the last time.
