Is it just me that gets annoyed with how much effort puts in to trying to make me subscribe? I already told them that their price is way too high for the features offered.
I've already told them that I won't be subscribing at that price. It's expensive and not worth it. Is it not better to reduce your price yet get more subscribers?
It is not a premium app. It doesn't have integrated training plans. I want (when I subscribe and opt for a marathon plan) something that is integrated with the strava app, that gives me coaching and voice feedback during each training session, that is in the app that I can tailor so it's not just a bland series of emails that tell me when and what to do. It's very dull and lazy.
The effort strava puts in to monetise everything by linking to their 'partners' which is just about getting exposure to their partners.
It's not about providing a good app for your users it's about squeezing money out of your users wherever possible while not giving them what they have asked for.
I'm pretty sure a lot of other strava users or potential subscribers feel exactly the same but (a bit like apple) you don't care about what your user base actually wants. Pretty much ignore it and just press on with your own agenda.
Is 2024 the year you bring in integrated training plans? Endomondo doesn't exist anymore (under armour bought it and now it's map my run and they ruined endomondo because they know better obviously... So I left them).
When I subscribed to strava last year I did it because I got 3 extra free months and I thought when you said you had training plans and it was a 'premium' subscription it would be integrated. I was so disappointed that it didn't. It was a false representation of what I thought I was getting.
So are you like me and fed up with the high price, constant pressure to subscribe and the fact that most of the features people would pay for don't exist (still) in strava?
It's not value for money right now and doesn't give me anything by subscribing.
Fix it.
