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

I think it's time we the amateurs had our app back.  Strava should have a section just for Pro or ex pro riders separate from amateurs.  They can still compete for the same segments, just amongst themselves hence StravaPro, as alot of times they use data from races with closed roads and elevated speeds of a group or peleton.      ...

Hello team, it would be great to incorporate Historical Max HR trend into Strava, I could not find it anywhere. And no, I'm not referring to the HR performance analysis within the activity one just uploads, I'm referring to being able to check how one Max HR has been in weeks, months or years combining different or all activities together historically. Hope I explained myself if not let me know, I can show you an screenshot of other apps that already incorporate this for years now. This helps a lot to people like me who trains based on HR performance. Thank you. ... View more

I love to get out and explore new areas on my bike, and I spend a lot of time studying the global heatmap and my personal heatmap searching for new places to ride. I also study other people's rides looking for ideas for my own routes. I would love to have the ability to see my personal heatmap projected onto someone else's ride to see if I have already passed through or close to the area they rode. I could save the other person's ride as a route and then see my heatmap in the route builder, but that adds an extra layer of complication. If the function already exists in the route builder, it should be pretty easy to add it as an option in the ride overview.      ... View more

I access Strava mostly through the phone app (Android).  Several people that I'm connected with post in other languages. I would like to be able to translate and read what they post, but currently text copying is disabled in the app.  That is where the user does a long tap on a piece of text and then has the option of copying it to the clipboard.  Such a feature would make it a lot easier for me to communicate with my Strava connections. ...

Hey, Strava has always traditionally been focused on Cyclists, but more and more features are coming out for additional sports. I would like Strava to better support Multi sport, in both activities and athletes stats/data. One way I would like to see this done is allowing the user to set HR Zones per sport type. Currently its a one size fits all which does not fit for athletes who cycle and run. Having this support will also allow Strava to give much better relative effort data. An athlete  might make a habit of going on 2 hour cycle rides Strava sees this athlete can perform for 2 hours, but it doesn't care which sport. On another day the Athlete may go for a 20min run which exhausts them much more than the regular ride they do. But Strava doesn't care, Strava sees they have only done 16% of the work they typically do, so it marks it as a low effort, something it was not. I can't say for sure this is the way Strava works, but this is based on my own experience of using the app for years. ... View more

I think it would be great for the 'Run' challenges to also allow for 'Walk' to count towards getting the challenge badge for people who are less able-bodied. At the moment only Run, Virtual Run and Wheelchair are available. While this is fantastic for wheelchair users, it excludes people who aren't able to run but do not have mobility issues requiring a wheelchair. For example, I have a heart condition which means that it is actually quite an achievement for me to walk 10km in one activity and it would be nice to get a badge without having to pretend to run the distance required. ...

I keep having to put swimming when I train water polo, however it’s entirely inaccurate as water polo is more strenuous as a whole so would probably benefit from its own activity type  ... View more

When you set up your Profile / Gear. IF there was a box for E-assisted against gear item (example Yeti SB160E  E-Assisted=YES), then this could be leveraged in all the strava segments to tag the results e-assisted.  That would then separate the e-assisted from the au-natural without much effort. The segment could then be auto tagged for that ride as follows: 500m Blasting climb. (au-natural). vs e_500m Blasting climb (e-assisted) The addition of the e_ before the segment name is a dead giveaway. The underlying data segment ID might also then easily carry that e_ identifier. Would then probably save all the anxiety that goes with an au-natural KOM being nabbed using e-assisted gear. Of course its only as good as the responsible users of the database. Cheers ...

When scrolling down the page of activities, after a while the page will refresh. This is very annoying to the user when they're way down the page. It takes a lot of scrolling to get back to where they were. And then after a while it does it again, and it takes even longer to get back to where they were... Some of us follow a lot of athletes, and like to look at a lot of activities to get training ideas, or just to see what others are doing.  A toggle could be added to the top of the home screen to turn off auto-refresh, and then a "Refresh" button could be added so the user can manually refresh the page and see new activities.  This would make my experience in the app much more enjoyable.  ...

I ride outdoors every day regardless of the weather, and I haven't missed a day on the bike in over 7 years. During this period I've averaged over 9700 real outdoor miles per year. It's pretty disheartening to look at the monthly cycling challenge leaderboards and see all of the top spots occupied by people who only ride indoors. Zwifting in air conditioned comfort is not the same thing as riding a real bike outdoors in real weather conditions. Completing the monthly distance and elevations challenges outdoors during the winter months requires an entirely different level of commitment and suffering. The leaderboards should reflect this difference.  ... View more

Currently the address privacy function works for the beginning and end of rides. Why not have it work for anywhere on a ride? I visit my Mom by bicycle and the ride goes up on Strava. I have added her address to the list of hidden addresses, but Strava does not hide the address because it is not the beginning or end of a ride. I could stop the ride when I arrive at my Mom's and then start a new ride when I leave, but I prefer to simply stop the timer, put my device to sleep, then start it up again when I ride home ... this way all my riding for a day is in one ride instead of multiple rides. ...

Just got my ultra human ring and wish I could connect it from the Strava app as a device. And not just sync my work outs from the ultra human app. I like the Strava app and its features to log my work outs.  ... View more

I would love to see some holistic speed metrics captured, namely a 2 new PRs for max speed and a graph that tracks your average speed against all rides.  For the max speed PRs I’d like to see one for max speed on a decent where the app quantifies this by seeing the terrain at a certain negative degree % For the second PR I’d like to see it captured as a sprint where the app records based on duration and a gradient that is far or only slightly declined / inclined.  both of these PRs would allow you to see how you’ve either grown in confidence on descents or improved your sprint performance.  The average speed chart should should show over a period your average speed taken from each ride as opposed to just matched rides. Whilst the terrain and conditions can vary which would impact average speed I feel it would be useful to see a trend over time. ... View more

I rely on the surface type feature in mapping a lot to create my rides for gravel / road etc. It would be great if the surface type % was shown on the finished map either on the map, below it, or both like it is when building the route in route builder.

Hi, Would be great to have an additional statistic on the Strava app to show a 7 day daily rolling update of how many kms that we have done. At the moment each week starts at zero as it records Monday- Sunday. E.g For the 1st week I may have ran Monday 10km, Tues Rest, Weds 15km, Thurs 8km, Friday Rest, Sat 12km, Sun 13km my weeks total is 58kms. For the second week I run on Monday for 20km and Tues 8km the 7 day rolling stat will show previous 7 days from last Weds to this Tues of 74kms, and then it will continue to update daily depending on runs or rest.

I use Strave to track my Winging Sessions. Winging is a watersport such as Windsurfing or Kitesurfing. as i can‘t choose Winging to track it, I track it as „windsurfing“ But I hate my units!!!  I want to see my speed in km/h and my distance in km and not in nautical miles… who the f… uses nautical miles please change that or give me the opportunity to change it ...
