no audio

[abebe]

Hi, 

I want an audio cue after every kilometer I walk. I already set via Record page - Audio Cues - Run Announcements it to kilometer and when I change it to half kilometer I hear a voice as example, but after record a walk, there's no audio cue. What am I doing wrong?

Hello @abebe 

Thanks for posting about audio announcements.  You mentioned you are recording walks.  Currently audio announcements on Strava only work when you record in run mode on the Strava App.  Can you give that a try and see if it works for you?

If you record in "run" mode, you can still change the activity type to "walk" as you're saving and uploading the activity.

Thanks again for posting and we hope to hear back from you.

Hi Jane,

It works thanks, but how do I change 'run' into 'walk' after uploading the activity.

Regards,

Abebe
