Seeing the new features rolled out is great, but there's still work to be done matching functionality between app and website.  Ideally, if it's important enough to exist in one, it should also be in the other.  Examples:

1. Adding Gear: Given that STRAVA now has so many activity categories, it would be nice to add gear other than shoes and bikes; I log roughly 20 miles per week on a Concept2 rower, and would like to aggregate that data in the app/website.

2. Segment creation/searching/exploring:  Searching is clunky on the app, but very intuitive on the website, and creation of segments is only available through the website.

3. Course Creation/searching/exploring: Similar to Segments, creation is somewhat cumbersome on the app to the point where folks just don't use it; I make it a point to only create routes on the website for the sake of my own sanity.  In dire straits, I actually prefer the CityStrides route builder over that of either STRAVA or Garmin Connect apps.

4. FlyBy:  This was once an awesome function, albeit only really viewable from the website, and since STRAVA changed their privacy policies making the user default as 'opted out', it's essentially unused.  Also, FlyBy isn't widely advertised as a feature, and not obvious to app users that it even exists.

5. Muting Activities:  An activity can only be muted through the app, and not the website.
DELIVERED: Enable Muted activities on web

6. Managing Goals:  Currently only Running, Cycling, and Swimming distance goals can be viewed/managed through the website, but other activities like Rowing can be viewed/managed through the app.

7. Choosing Favorite Athletes/Activity Alerts:  Designation of specific friends/athletes as "favorites" and opting into notifications of their activities is only available through the app.

8. Although not available on either the website or the app, the ability to simply edit your comment on someone's activity would be very helpful, and seems like pretty low-hanging fruit.

@Silentvoyager -  Also, Flyby is only available on the web.

We should add a list like yours for tools/features available only on the app:
- All goals can be seen/edited on the app, but only a couple can be seen on the web

When viewing a profile on PC I can see a good amount of stats in the right side panel.
Either my stats, the users stats I am looking at, or a compare view.
On mobile however there is only a limited amount, not even a year by year overview option.
Not to mention the stats compare with my stats I there is available on PC.

I'd like to see all the same stats and comparison on mobile too.

Couldn't agree more. Charging for this app, but under delivering! I might as well just use Garmin connect.

On the web version of Strava when I display of the details of an activity, if I assigned a shoe to the activity, I could see the current mileage of the shoe.

However, on the app version, it only lists the shoe without mileage. To get the current mileage, I need to leave the activity, go to gear page which is now even more hidden and look it up there.

Could this be changed? I believe it is a small change, but it helps to see the gear mileage for the gear used after each activity.

On the Strava website, when I visit an Athlete's profile, I see a list of their times over certain key distances along side my own. This allows for easy comparison. My request is that this feature is extended to the Android app as well. At present, when you visit an Athlete's profile in the Android app, all you see are their own times despite their often being plenty of screen space for yours to be displayed alongside them. Especially if this comparison were restricted, for example, to landscape mode.
