It would be nice if you could add photos/videos directly from Google Photos to your acitivities.

Totally agree, need to be able to access Google Photos when trying to upload Photos to an activity.

Be able to add photos from within Google Photos app.

Be able to drag and drop them from a desktop, browser-based Google Photo tab into the Strava activity page where you should be able to drop photos.

Likewise, being able to pull from (add media) Google Photos from within Strava... either the app or from the website?

Invaluable, for vids in particular. Downloading and then uploading is tedious, especially on dodgy wifi when travelling.

Yes, I would like that very much!

I have a shared Google Photos account. Shared with my girlfriend and with my photo camera. I would like to use photos that were made on these cameras, and these are all available in the Google Photos account.

The iOS app cannot add photos from Google Photos, it can only add photos from the built-in photos app. This does not help those of us that store all Our photos in Google Photos. Then the only way to add photos from that source used to download them to the phone so they will be visible in The iOS, photos app. This unnecessarily complicates the workflow and also creates duplicates of all my photos, since I also back up my iPhone photos to Google Photos.

It would be helpful if Strava, like other apps, can find photos in the Google Photos app.
