Greetings! It is not easy to find where to post or where to get help. Hopefully someone has some guidance. I use Strava for cycling probably 95% of the time but one time I went hiking about 3 months ago and decided to record it.
Now whenever I open the app to record it starts with hiking and no matter how many times I switch it to biking it never stays there on subsequent rides. Any ideas? Fixes?
Thanks! Also a direct contact to Strava would be nice too.
Solved! Go to Solution.

The only thing that worked for me was deleting the app and reinstalling it. Immediately, it defaulted to Run, as I had set it to. Worked a treat.

It doesn't help - mine is stuck on Canoe for a year.

I did an e-Mountain Bike trial day 6 months ago and whenever I go to record it defaults my activity to e-Mountain Bike Ride.
I ride a road bike, walk, or run, and the profile settings Bryant refers to has "Running" and "Cycling" as the only options.
I want my default activity to either be the last one I recorded or "Ride". E-Mountain Bike isn't even in the list of my top activities, so why does it appear as the default every time?
I have an iPhone 12, latest version of Strava (15 Feb 2023 update)

It does not help. I have had the same issue for about the same amount of time. My default sport has never changed from cycling and is still listed that way.
