I recently upgraded my bike computer and bought a smart watch. Everyone can immediately check what types they are as they are displayed, taken from the .fit file.

I don't need to show off what gear I have. In many places, it's outright dangerous to share that you have an Apple Ultra or a Garmin Tactic watch, as thugs will follow and rob you for it.

So,  please:

  • Create an option to hide the device name that is taken from the uploaded/synched .fit file
  • And/or an option to automatically rename a device between the .fit file and the Strava displaying of it.

Thanks for considering.

Must be getting paid to advertise your device.   👎🏽

It seems obvious that they would have this feature, I searched for like an hour looking, I even tried to change my setting in my garmin app so it wouldn't send the info but no use.  So I ended up here only to find out it both doesn't exist and other people also want this feature. Would be nice... 🤞

Please add this option soon as is possible! This choice must be standard in app. Thanks.

Totally agree with the privacy concern. Is there an update on this?

Really want this. Kind of ridiculous Strava forces me to let everyone know what gear I use. I don't need people to notice how often I buy something new or upgrade an item. This should be a high priority safety ticket
