  Feature: Dynamic Histograms for Yearly Comparison Allow users to compare their training load month-to-month across different years using interactive histograms. Each bar represents a month, with different colors or layers indicating specific metrics (e.g., distance, duration, calories burned). Users can switch between metrics like Workouts, Distance, Duration, Calories for each year to compare performance in a specific month. Enhanced Drill-Down View: Include the ability to click on individual months to dive deeper into detailed statistics. For example: Workouts completed Average pace, elevation gain, heart rate zones Top workouts of that month Display year-to-year progression, showing the change in individual values over time, helping users understand how their training volume and load evolved. This feature would allow athletes to better monitor their training load and adjust their workouts to achieve better results while seeing progress and avoiding overtraining.     ... View more

Flybys is a wonderful tool/feature! 😀 However, it only works on Strava Website. It would be really cool if users could, even if only through Strava Website, export the map/animation to video format (such as MP4) which would be more easily shared on social media. In addition to making sharing easier, this new feature would bring more visibility to the STRAVA brand on social media. ... View more

I really like the idea of not only having badges or recognition for riding performance but also for the locations a rider has completed a ride in.   Perhaps broken down into: 1) Number of cities ridden in 2) Number of countries, states, provinces, territories, and continents ridden in 3) Riding through areas of interest (mountain ranges, deserts, famous climbs, famous highways, etc...) I love the idea of having ridden in 'x' amount of countries, or cities, or areas of geographical note.     ... View more

When viewing activities and viewing “View Analysis” Elevation map only. Why can’t you have a feature to edit the y axis on the elevation chart? Some rides it measures by 50 feet increments other rides it measures in 100 feet increments and etc. Having the option to choose on that chart alone would be a nice feature. Have the default and the ability to choose 25, 50, 100, 150, 200 for yourself. Thanks!  ... View more

Please please please make it possible on the phone app to search my saved routes - I have nearly 300 and each time I have to go to my laptop to find the route I want.  ... View more

Imagine you can use the replay route feature in 3D mode similar to google/apple maps, and see your little 3D avatar running at your pace! Challenges could unlock different gear and swag for your character! Great opportunity for sponsors and motivation for strava athletes! Please consider this!     ... View more

When i review a power graph for my rides, especially for longer rides, it would be great if one could select rolling 5sec/30sec/1min average, as this would give a better view of the effort during different parts of the ride. The current graph is very spiky and thus a bit hard to interpret. I think this would be a great (and simple) feature for post-ride analysis! ... View more

Would it be possible to create a protection against abusive activity flagging? Some people do not hesitate to flag and report the legit activities of others when their KOM is beaten. To prevent this form of cheating, I propose several measures. It should not be possible for a user to report an activity if: - For cycling activities, if the activity was recorded with a GPS unit (like a Garmin or Wahoo for example, which are more reliable than recording via the Strava app) AND sensors such as: a power meter, cadence and heart rate, since these sensors can guarantee the authenticity of the activity - If these activities have been performed by professional athletes on Strava - It should not be possible for a user to report the same activity more than once Thank you in advance. ...

Users often use the same route for their activities. For example using the bike to commute to work. Especially for those it would be nice to save this routes like some private segments to see if the users can beat yesterdays time and to see if the user getting better from time to time.  ...

This goes along with the playlist idea. You could do something like Strava on Main Street. People could post their activities they did on a Main Street along with a photo. You could even do challenges like find that donkey. Athletes could do their activity and take a picture of a donkey and post it to that playlist. It would just be a way to gamify Strava a little bit and give people some stuff to look at. You could then allow kudos on the photos taken and whoever got the most kudos on their photo could win a little trophy or something. I think that would be fun. ... View more

Overview: I propose adding the ability for users to "star" or bookmark specific locations within the app. This would allow athletes to easily mark and save their favorite spots, trailheads, or any key points of interest. These starred locations could then be utilized for more efficient and personalized route planning. Benefits: 1. Quick Access: Users can easily access their favorite starting points or mid-route locations without having to search for them each time. 2. Personalization: Athletes can curate a list of their preferred locations, making it easier to plan new routes that start, end, or pass through these points. 3. Efficiency: This feature would save time and streamline the process of creating new routes, especially for those who frequently run, cycle, or hike in various areas. 4. Community Engagement: Users can share their starred locations with friends or the Strava community, promoting popular spots and enhancing social interaction within the app. Example Use Case: An athlete who enjoys running in different parts of the city could "star" several key parks, trailheads, or viewpoints. When planning a new route, they can quickly select from these starred locations to create a route that connects them, ensuring a run that covers their favorite spots. I believe this feature would add great value to the Strava experience, making route planning more intuitive and personalized for all users. ... View more

It would be amazing if I were able to track jump height and number of jumps within the Kitesurf activity on Strava. I know there are other apps available for tracking devices/watches/phones that track this, so an integration with one of these apps might work. I prefer to track my kitesurfing activity on Strava and not also have a separate watch, device or phone to track jumps.  One single location to be able to record and view the stats that are important to me for the activities I do is always the goal. Thank you for your consideration! ... View more

I train with a squad. The ‘today’ view has too many people I don’t know. The club view looks at best ever times instead of ‘today’ in my ‘club’. Not everyone I want to look at is in my club anyway. I would like a ‘Compare’ tick-box so I can compare my activity with any other activity on the same course. I’d imagine it would create a hidden, temporary segment and then let me compare a single person on all of my measures (speed, power, hr etc) or as many people (max 10) that I tick. Thanks. ...

Strava has great volumes of activity data uploaded by athletes, and should be able to use that data to calculate / predict race results.  There are some simple online calculators, but not very accurate. Strava might take into consideration the following (but not limited to): previous race results athlete's recent training volume / mileage, and other parameters of the training quality (speed sessions etc) for long distances (e.g a marathon), also percentage of sufficiently long runs  athlete's attributes such as gender, age, weight (there's already an existing feature request to sync this), VO2max (dtto) and if a prediction turns out to be off, use that to adjust future predictions accordingly  Athletes should be able to get their predictions for any distance (the feature can include the most usual distances by default but let's not limit to those, people should be able to add custom distances), but also time (e.g. prediction for a 12 mins run for the Cooper test, 1 hr run and such). At the same time, athletes could see a recommended pace for each distance - that's extremely helpful if the athlete plans to race on that distance for the first time. ... View more

When creating a training plan, the output is very generic and not tailored to the individual athlete's needs. I'd like to be able to do the following: Define exactly how many days a week you want to run (currently, even if I start the configuration with 6 days, the plan only includes 5) Specify which day(s) in the week would be rest day(s) (currently, a generated training plan schedules rest days for Saturdays and Mondays - I want to be able to pick e.g. Friday), same with e.g. long runs While keeping the major race of the season (e.g. marathon) as the ultimate goal, I still want to be able to input shorter distance races and have the rest of the plan recalculated based on that (e.g. count the race as a tempo run, schedule a recovery run for the day after) If I deviate from the plan for any reason (illness, severe weather), I would like to be able to trigger a recalculation of the remainder of the plan  And, ultimately, the plan should be able to build on & dynamically adjust based on the particular athlete's progress / performance, incl. specific pace for particular runs (could be based on some proven methodology, e.g. Jack Daniels' training paces) ...
