Strava Features Chat

I mean, it just feels weird when you swam 2K and you see you've "made no effort" there 😆

After riding for 3 days for a solo ride of 800km I finally combined the 3 rides into one using the Fit Files Combine tool before uploading to Strava. To my disappointment the ride never got added to my club leaderboard. I let that slide but now it is still not counting as my longest ride yet. My longest ride is still at 525 km which is definitely 3 years ago. Here is the ride that won't count as a longest ride https://www.strava.com/activities/10086632519I need help to make these work.

I just completed my first half marathon yesterday and had my Strava running and the RaceJoy app for tracking my bib. Strava had me at a full mile longer than my bib tracked. It was a certified course as a  Boston Qualfier (which is not me lol) so the course had to be accurate. Any ideas why my Strava was so far off and how to fix those stats? I don’t want a 14.17 mile run in there. Thanks!

Why does my watch brand/model not show up on my activities like everyone else on my feed? I have a Garmin Instinct E

Is it possible to disable everything goal related? It seems incessant lately. I signed up and pay for an app to record my activities. I couldn't care less about the screen wasting goal suggesting and constant artificial validation.

Within the last one or two months flybys is behaving oddly.  Yes, I know how to turn it on. When I enter flybys, it looks normal, everybody and their nice colored bubble.  Click “all” to check them all off and start, and the bubbles disappear.  It shows me colored tracks, but the bubbles all pop and are gone.  Same if I check flyby locations.  Thoughts?  Clearly Strava has the data.  Beyond that, I’ve tried multiple browsers, cleared cache, checked version of app on phone.  All good, still bad.  Garmin Edge 130.  As usual, Google is garbage and comes up with a million hits intermixed from 2020 to god-knows-when and has no idea about how to find current reports of issues.  Any help would be appreciated.  

Hi please see image attached share snapshot no longer available on all recent activities. Ive chceked settings and all seems correct.When i share old activities the snapshot comes up! Anybody know why?  

I just got a new phone, and after installing the Strava app, I noticed that any time I try to view an activity (either mine or someone I follow) the app crashes. It also crashed if I try to tap on the Maps or Record features. I can navigate the rest of the app features like Groups, If I go to the “You” feature I can also navigate within the Progress option plus I can scroll down my list of activities but just can’t open any.It has been uploading activities from Zwift and my Wahoo Element IRL rides without issue.I had a Pixel 6a before and now a Pixel 8 Pro. Same Android OS version/build on both phones and settings for the Strava app are all the same too.I have done the usual troubleshooting like clear app storage/cache and also uninstalled/reinstalled the app too.Not sure if it’s a specific feature of the Pixel 8 Pro causing the issues that my 6a did not have but it’s very frustrating.Thanks for any suggestions offered!

Unless I’m doing something wrong it seems like I can’t access any routes downloaded for offline use unless I have a cellular/wifi connection. Which obviously renders the offline feature completely useless if true.Create route, mark as “Offline” Force quit app. Disable cellular data and wifi on phone Open Strava, navigate to saved routes. I get a “something went wrong error” at the top of the screen, but any routes marked for Offline use display below. Unfortunately, tapping any of the routes or “start route” button does nothing.Can anyone else confirm this is how it works for them? I’m hoping I’m doing something wrong but it looks like offline maps don’t really work offline at all.  

I’m trying to edit a new route and most (but not all) actions I try result in: “Error: Sorry, we couldn’t complete that action. Please try plotting the point again. This can occur when routing across large distances, so try plotting more frequent waypoints that are closer together.” I’m only creating or dragging points a few blocks apart. This also happens when I try to delete a waypoint. The entire route is only 1-2 miles long. Looks like an API error, but status.strava.com says all is operational. Again, this is sporadic, but not a result of 100% of my actions. edit: every action seems to be trying to calculate the resulting action from a point WAY far away. I’m in Oakland and editing a route in SF, but the calculation point is far to the west beyond both (see attachment). I even started a new route since the initial report, and this started in halfway through. Very frustrating to have basic route creating be this broken. edit 2: the route had placed a finish point somewhere near Buf

Why are some of my weight training activities coded as a “Workout” in my Training Log? I save them all as strength training in my watch. It would be nice to have all weight training activities listed as weight training activities in my Training Log.  

I’ve got Strava set up to use Celsius in the interface settings, and it shows up in the ride summary, however when I go to the “Analysis” tab the graph is all in Fahrenheit. Not sure if this is a bug or just a limitation right now. Attached some images below, both items are the same ride.Setting value of “Celsius”Summary showing CGraph showing F 

Hello,I managed to finally create a group challenge but I can't find a way to share the link with others. There us also no way to set some custom thumbnail for this. Is there a way?

BonjourMon activité du jour s affiche sur ma page mais pas sur le fil d’actualités pourtant je n’ai pas touché aux paramètres bizarre ? Avez-vous le même problème ? Faut-il attendre ? Merci d’avance

Please refund my subscription as it auto-renewed without my permission, and I urgently need the money for my school tuition.

Hi there, I’ve checked the gear list and adding a component doesn’t include ‘sealant add’ or ‘sealant topup’. What’s the best way to track how much life I have left in my sealant inside Strava?

I am not a fan of the most recent (July 2025) app update ("upgrade") to the maps feature. My map is no longer defaulted to "North up", and I cannot figure out how to get the map to always display in "North up" my default. Anyone know if/where that setting is?

Yesterday I achieved a 2nd Best Time on a running segment!  I didn’t even know it was there, although I seem to have ran it 5 times this year.   Now I can’t find the segment unless I click on the badge on my activity.   I checked on my iPhone app and on my desktop.   What am I missing? 

I cant give kidos or like the comments from followers. anyone knows why? 

Hi, the latest updates of the iOS app have some added automation which seems to try to be helpful, but, please, how can I disable that? 😬First - making a screenshot of activity details triggers a sharing screen (where you can save an image of the map or the activity photo with stats). I understand it might make sense in some use cases, but if I'm taking a screenshot of the splits, elevation graph or pretty much anything in the activity details, I really do not want the sharing screen to pop up and hide the details that I want to capture. Second - once opening a newly imported activity, a "quick edit" dialogue pops up immediately prompting to rename the activity etc. But it's too simplified and doesn't include all the options (such as: shoes), so I always just close it and open the actual Edit mode. The "quick edit" is just a distracting and frustrating step. If anything needs to be automated this way, then perhaps why not opening the newly imported activity in the Edit mod

I somehow clicked okay to move to use of a one-time password to log in, but it is less convenient and requires more steps.   how do I switch back?  There is no longer an option to change password in settings, only change email -- and I want to keep the same email.Thanks

The past few times I’ve done a treadmill run synced to my Apple Watch, the splits show up completely different when imported to Strava. See my interval training from today: the Apple splits are correct, but Strava has them WAY slower. Is there a way to fix this? 

Since the latest visual update I miss the dots on completed track , which usually marked the completed km s and helped to estimate distance of upcoming destinations. 

If a segment includes an out and back, how close to the turn around do I need to get for it to count?  For example, the segment includes offshoot dead end road that is ridden out and back as part of the segment.  What’s the tolerance for that segment to count or be rejected?

Is there a known issue with Apple Ultra 2 not showing mile split pace? All I’m seeing is overall pace, it’s really messing with training. I’m on the annual plan. Attempted to delete app from phone and watch, reboot both devices, problem still persists. Posting here as I’ve had no answer from support on open tickets or Twitter/X about this. Any insight most appreciated.
