If possible add bowling/kegel as a sport. Maybe as a combination of pedometer and weight lifting due to the weight of the bowling ball. In the European version (Kegel), the weight of the ball is about 3 kg, and in the American version (Bowling) about 7 kg. Recording the total score by entering the score with the choice of the number of throws to track progress. Video - one trow bowling/kegel  ... View more

It would be nice to be able to adjust the interface of the speedometer during training. Could. Unfortunately, only the riding time, speed and distance are displayed. Idea: A tap on the corresponding field and you can choose between different options. It would also be nice to have a view for the altitude of the route. Like it is integrated in other well-known apps. And the whole thing in split screen with the map. Translate with DeepL ... View more

It would be much more informative and interesting (IMO) for Strava to show the "final" weather conditions, rather than the beginning conditions. Rides always start out in weather that you're prepared for, but it's how they end that makes them memorable. ... View more

Sometimes when i go on rides or mountain bikes with friends strava doesn't recognise it. its strange because a lot of the time i come up on my friends activity but they wont come up on mine. We also start and finish in the same spot. Is there a way you could pair people up more easily? I know you can select them after the activity but this creates a big second post on the strava 'wall' which i find silly. Mayb when we add friends to our activity via the manage group button, dont post the big second post thing to the wall and just add them 'quietly'?  Pic below is what i mean by quietly.  added here 'quietly'   Below is the big second post im referring to. It creates a mess on the wall and isnt needed. dont do this when we add friends to an activity   Thanks ... View more

Strava athletes are safer with fewer cars on the road and many cities have underused robust public transport systems. As Strava is a strong social media tool for many people, it could be used to encourage public transportation in a non-shaming way. You could post your bus rides (including walk to bus, bus ride, walk from bus to destination) and receive awards for most efficient ride, most dedicated/persistent bus rider, etc. If the app partnered with a city's bus system it could also suggest better routes or paths to the bus station. ...

There have been a couple of instances where I pause my ride at a stop light and forget to resume, or where my ride is not recorded due to bad reception. This requires a manual entry for that particular ride. Using “routes” for manual entries would be a nice feature because you would just have to enter your duration. Elevation would automatically be added and the map would be displayed on that manually entered ride.  ... View more

I want to be able to set a fixed distance for a run and when that distance is reached the activity automatically stops with a specific sound-notification. This enables me to set a distance of 10km and then just focus on the run instead of having to keep track of how far I've run all the time.   ... View more

At present there doesn't appear to be any Strava Shortcuts on IOS.  I've started using NFC tags with my iPhone and the Shortcuts app. I was surprised to see that Strava offer no options with this app. My idea was to be able to scan a NFC tag at my front door as I leave the house to commence a run and then scan on my return to end the exercise. Any chance you guys could have a look? Ricardo ... View more

When I’m walking or hiking, my Apple Watch running Strava displays my instantaneous speed, updating once per second. However, even when I’m walking at a consistent pace, the speed value dances around the true figure, forcing me to take a mental average and discard outliers.  Suggested feature: display a smoothed speed on Apple Watch during activities. For example, display the median of the last 20 seconds’ worth of measurements, or speed calculated over the last 1/16 mile or whatever.  I am much less interested in the watch’s idea of how fast I’m going at this exact instant, especially when there is a significant amount of noise in the reported data. I’m much more interested in my current accurate walking/hiking pace over roughly the last half a minute.  Thanks for providing this forum! ... View more

The mobile app (on Android), when used for recording bike rides, shows: - For free users: the average speed of the activity - For premium users: the current speed For premium users, there should be an option to switch the display to show the average speed (instead of the current speed). (This option currently does not exist.) ... View more

Apologies, if this has been suggested before but I was unable to find a post about it. This change would allow a user to edit and then approve activates which have been uploaded to Strava via an API before they are posted. For me it is a annoyance to go and find the find the activities which either I do not want to post and deleted or change the name or description of the activity after it is posted. I think there are 3 things which I would like to see for this.  A notification that an activity is ready to be posted A preview of the activity which allows you to edit: Title Description Sport Sport Type Commute flag Gear Privacy setting A list of all of the activates which are ready to post so you can bulk edit them. ...

I often follow a route using the Strava mobile app running on my phone attached to the handlebars. One problem with the map view is that it doesn't show you the live activity data such as time, speed or distance. This would be really useful to save us having to switch back to non-map view to view this data.   ... View more

When recording a run, allow display of the live run pace (min/km or min/mile) and average run pace across the whole activity.  As a Strava Subscriber, I can only see the average pace within a split (mile or km). This is very strange because: Free athletes can view the total average pace while Strava Subscribers cannot. This is actually much more useful to know if you are on track to meet a target time in a race. You can view speed in km/h or mph by recording as a ride first show here (https://www.reddit.com/r/Strava/comments/d27faz/how_to_show_current_running_pace_or_speed_in/) which is easy to convert into running pace from a programming perspective, but very difficult to convert to the more common running pace during a race. You cannot gauge your pace during intervals shorter than a single split - live run pace would allow me to see how fast I am for 200m, 300m, 400m intense intervals for example. These features are used in other apps (e.g Withings Health Mate), and would be easy to implement, and very useful here.   ... View more

It would be great to see the air quality index and pollen count values of the workout location.  I have allergies so it would be nice to have these numbers.  It might be possible trends in across workouts that show how different levels impact performance. ... View more

I think adding the option to view a route’s elevation profile while recording an activity would be a useful addition to Strava. I frequently follow routes created using Strava’s Route Builder website, which provides detailed information on elevation. However, once I load this route onto my phone and begin recording an activity I am unable to see how much elevation gain or loss is ahead. It would be helpful to see how much longer a climb will be or how many more climbs are left on a route, and would allow me to make better decisions about where to take breaks or gauge how much longer a ride will be. The feature could work like this: When toggled off (mockup 1), the map on the record screen would look as it currently does – the route is indicated in orange, the recorded path drawn in blue. The only difference is the addition of an elevation toggle button on the bottom left corner of the screen. When toggled on (mockup 2), the elevation profile for the current route is revealed. A slider bar can be moved sideways along the elevation profile to display the height and distance for any point along the route. On the map, a gray dot would follow this movement showing the location of that point. For activities recorded without a route, the button to toggle the elevation profile would be unavailable, since there would be no pre-defined route/elevation data for Strava to display. While elevation profiles are not a new feature for Strava, they are currently only available via the the Route Builder website or the Saved Routes tab in the mobile app. This means to access the elevation profile while riding, I need to stop and navigate backwards through the app. Even here, the elevation profile is static and only of limited use. I think adding elevation information directly on the record screen would be a convenient way to access important information about my rides. I hope others find this suggestion useful. Thank you to the Strava team for all your great work. ... View more
