there's a lot of us that use iPad. Would be nice to have an app specifically written for this device, not for recording specifically, but linked to the other device as we use it to move around, with a lot of option for the map. Big, giant map, 3D map to explore, to use as we travel and explore the world, with the new integration of photos, POI. It would help to locate where we are, to follow a planned route or review and edit our last run.

We need an iPad app. I think it’s madness that there is no iPad app yet.

iOS 17 has some neat cycling features, and hey an iPad app too!

And full screen! Not just the iphone screen mirrored in the ipad

This definitely needs to be implemented

Any update on this? When will this feature be implemented?

I agree with everybody, would be great to have a Strava app for iPad. The iphone-app looks very primitive on the iPad screen.

Desperately begging for this. I just got an iPad and I’m kind of shocked it doesn’t yet exist.

Just resigned up to Strava and very disappointed there is no dedicated iPad app. Sort it out Strava please…

Absolutely beyond me, why this is still not a thing.

Here's somewhat of a workaround to create an app-like Strava experience on iPad that I've discovered.

On your iPad:

  1. Use Safari to open www.strava.com. Do not use a different browser, like Firefox or Chrome.  This works with Safari.
  2. Once the site loads, tap the share icon at the top right of the browser.  It looks like a blue box with an upward arrow in it.
  3. In the dialog that opens, scroll down to "Add to Home Screen" and tap that.
  4. In the next dialog, Safari asks you to confirm the name you want to give to this web site once it's on your home screen.  Confirm that it just says "Strava" and then tap "Add" at the top of the dialog.

Et voila.  This will create a bookmark on your iPad's home page that will act almost like a native app.  Strava developers seem to have included the HTML tag in Strava's web site so that it will display as a full-screen web app once bookmarked like this in Safari.  You may have to log in the first time you use the home page bookmark, but after doing so once, it'll open to your account.

This technique gives you the full functionality of the Strava web site in a format that feels like an app on iPad.  

I wish they would make a real app for iPad, but this is a decent-ish alternative in the mean time.

Note that this Safari trick works on MacOS, too.  

  1. Load www.strava.com in Safari on your Mac.
  2. Click the share icon at the top right of the browser window.  
  3. Click "Add to Dock."  

This will create a Strava "app" in your dock that will load like a native app, even though behind the scenes it's an instance of your Safari browser.

Im just trying out strava today and i was actually shocked when I found out that there is no iPad app

Did the “add to Home Screen” workaround and to be honest it’s better than the app so maybe that’s why they haven’t done an app?? Anyway thanks for this!
