This is a strange happening that started recently. I usually run Strava and RWGPS at the same time during a ride. Most of my bike club members use Strava to record their rides to share their results. I also run RWGPS so that I can use the turn by turn cues.
I’ve never had a problem running both apps at the same time until recently, where partway through the ride I no longer hear either of the two speaking. The apps still run perfectly, recording the route where I can end each one and save the results.
I also noticed recently that Strava is also back to using the default voice. I had changed my default voice on my iPhone to a British English voice and Strava adopted that when giving me my “starting ride“, “stopping“, and “resuming“ cues. It’s no longer doing that no matter how I set my iPhone settings.
It was suggested by RWGPS that I run the apps separately and not at the same time. That might have solved my problem with Strava since I tested it alone today and I was able to complete my ride without it going into some mute stage. I will be testing RWGPS by itself on another ride to see if I can complete a ride without it going into that mute stage as well.
Has anybody else noticed that Strava is using its default voice if you were once using a different accented voice?
Has anybody experienced Strava unexpectedly stopping the voice feedback partway through your activity?
I suspect one of the iPhone updates might have created my problems.
