Add Ability to View All photos from the Athlete Profile page

[plants4jim]

Can we please get some way to view all pictures? Strava is still hosting these images, if you go back through a timeline, you can find the activities and see the pictures that way. But when you look at the profile, the top only shows the most recent (this works great), but for some reason, the column under the timeline only shows up to 99 (or +99).

Your older images are still being hosted, but you can't easily find them even if you scroll through all the other pictures. Maybe a separate link somewhere or something, not sure. I don't know what the reason is for hiding, but still hosting old pictures. 

I like checking out pics from peoples activities to get inspired to go ride or hike, and sometimes like to check out a memory too.

Hey everyone. Nick from the Strava web team here. Thanks for taking the time to write up all this good feedback. In order to make finding your activity photos easier, we've just launched Photos on your Personal Heatmap on the heatmaps page (strava.com/maps)

There you can see all your photos (that have GPS data) where they were taken and link back to the original activities they come from. Take a look and let us know what you think!

Hi Nicky,

It looks like kind of a neat feature... but it's very cluttered and still hard to find pictures. Can we please just get a simple "load more pictures" or even "subscribe to see more pictures" link when we go to view all our pictures the normal way?

[VeggieM0nster]

@nicky That is a cool feature but our friends can't see our personal heatmap photos and most people don't know how to access it, so our older pictures still just get lost forever.   

We really need to have the regular spot be able to fetch more than 100 pictures (both on mobile and web).  A simple "Load More" or auto fetch when scrolling would be amazing. Facebook and most other social medias have this (and those are free!).  Most of us are paying a lot for Strava and this seems like such a simple feature.

Dear STRAVA, please make it happen.
At least for the subscriber who paid to get an extra feature in the app, such a gallery view of our activity for whole time (not just +99)

Hey All. Thanks for the feedback on this. We'll look into it!

I would love to have this feature! I've tried coming away from the classic social media sites now, but I love logging photos from my runs. To be able to go back through my photos, and then quickly check the actual run or route I took them on to re-live that day would be awesome. I have been a paying premium member for a number of years, this should be a standard feature in my opinion. You only have to go and fetch those images when scrolling further back, it wouldn't need to pre-load them anywhere. Indexing shouldn't be too heavy either. 

EDIT: As I've seen the recent update from @nicky . This is definitely a cool feature seeing them on a personal heatmap. But being able to see all my of photos on my profile, and browse through friend's photos would be awesome. I can't see their heatmaps. Just a "Load More" option is ideal.

Hi @nicky 

Most of us dont use the website so its sort of pointless. We use our phone app. 

Why cant you just list them all on the page we currently have? Its so much easier to look at and for our friends to look at. 

Sort of ridiculous we have to ask for this on a social media app we pay $100 a year for

Thanks

Instagram used to do this same thing 10 years ago but scrapped it.

Strava is adding unique features to it self now and then, and all of users is asking for thus basic feature that let us see all the pictures we have posted since our profile's initiation easily without manually searching for one activity at once. This searching for one activity at once,  trick takes all the joy away.

Please consider at least 150 or 200. 100 is just far too few! I have some absolute gems! 

[Rekagy]

I completely agree with this from Brandonlee99: 

"If you're really looking to drive Strava into a fully blown social media platform like it seems; hitting this crucial problem first would certainly enable that possibility."

Really. I have been curating my best photos, the page could be like Instagram. Having more than 100, adding comment feature etc. would make it into a social platform to drive engagement.

I would also stop using Instagram if I could just view all my photos on Strava! +1 to zecanard's point about the low impact. This limit doesn't make sense. 

I choose active transportation like biking and walking, and I include photos on Strava to remember the joyful memories I have with these chosen modes of transportation. This feature would make it easier to celebrate active transportation for me.

I am new to Strava and finally managed to sync and upload my 250 best pics and activities from 2023, just to find out that neither I nor anyone else can scroll through them. Really disappointing that such a simple thing doesn't work. Clicking through hundreds of activities just to find the one or other photo per activity is anything else but user-friendly... (By the way, I also don't use any other social media. I also wanted to use Strava as a personal diary, and to be able to easily scroll through good running memories...)

[Max3]

Do we know if Strava is working on this ? Thanks

[Sylvington233]

Yes please, it's a shame photos beyond 99 get hidden and it makes me think twice about adding a photo as another will drop off the other end.
