I tried doing my first 100km but unfortunately my phone died, how do i recover the lost data?

I recorded the group ride today on my gopro and I wanna show the video to my friends but Strava just removes the YouTube URL. Wtf, come on Strava it ain't that serious. At least allow premium members to post links. God.

Is there any way of stopping my own activities showing in my home feed? My garmin syncs all activities to Strava so I already have them muted by default to avoid spamming everyone with boring walks etc. Problem is it stills spams up my own home feed when all I want to see is other people's activity. If I wanted to see my own I'd just look at my profile.

Not having much luck googling it, anyone know?

I want to add a manual workout but I don’t have the + button in the top right corner like the FAQ says I should have. Advice??

Is it posible to change standard setting per activity type? For exaple: i want my cycling uploaded visible for everyone but my walking just for me. Is it posible to do this without having to do it manually?

How do I update my phone number on Strava?

For a while, I carried my phone while running. I'm 14M and sometimes run later at night, so my parents (my mom especially) really value this feature as they know that I'm safe. For Christmas, I got my first real running watch, a Garmin Forerunner 255. I tried using the LiveTrack, but it seems like that only works if I'm within bluetooth range of my phone. I heard that you can use Strava Beacon with watches if you have the subscription, so

A. Do you still need your phone near you to use it?

B. Does it update the location + pace/distance live?

C. Are there any free alternatives?

Thanks for any answers!

I deleted it off a club not knowing it would be deleted from my actual profile too, can I get it back???

I'm newer to Strava over the past few months. I signed up for a membership and have been exploring some segments near my house- great fun, loving it.

I am SUPER confused about how Local Legend works. https://strava.app.link/NrBXwLgL6Pb is a segment that I have completed four times this year so far during the course of some sessions. When I click to look at athletes, it only gives for completing it once in the past 90 days...

What am I doing wrong? I just ran it again today as part of a 4 mile training session.

Looking for some insight.

I'm only seeing the same activities from people,mainly from yesterday, there appears no order to any posts, also my activity doesn't seem to be showing for others (because I'm great and deserve kudos),, and the "ran with" connection for an activity doesn't seem to work

🤔🤔🤔

If I was doing a multi day effort with my iPhone and battery isn’t an issue, how long could I record an activity for? Does the app time out after a while? Is there a certain amount of data that strava allows you to record?

Does anyone else get these? I log my swim and run work outs on my Apple Watch and they sync to Strava. I never have a problem with it syncing real workouts. I keep getting these alerts when I haven’t done anything though. Any idea as to what might be causing this?

I was speaking with a friend, who is new to running, about Strava and it got me thinking about how I use Strava in my fitness journey. The thing is, both my friend and I use an advanced fitness tracker (Garmin in our cases) so does Strava actually add anything above what we get from that?

I gathered my thoughts on this, below, so I can share them more easily. What do you think? What have I missed? Or is my experience atypical?

Many people's first thought is that Strava is for posers bragging about their super fitness and that they need to be really fit before they should "post their results to Strava". Sure, there is some of that, but in reality that's not what I see.

The thing about a fitness journey is that "showing up" is the most important thing. Not how fast or how far you go. Consistency is king and anything that helps you get out there is good.

1. Reading Atomic Habits helped me understand a bit; getting a "like" on Strava triggers the reward centre in the brain, just like any other social media. But this time it's a reward for being active.

2. In reality, most people I know on Strava give the likes for the effort. If you just about manage to struggle through a slow 3k, you will likely get more love than a super athlete knocking 1 second of their PB.

3. Strava encourages this; if you haven't trained for a while, it will send push notifications to your followers when you do manage to get back to it so they can support you with a "like".

4. Strava also awards "Crowns" to the person who most often exercises on a certain "segment" - no matter how slow you may be. I.e. they reward consistency.

5. You can set up your own clubs or groups on Strava. It makes your solo exercise a bit more social. 

6. Finally, when I am out there at 6am in the dark and cold, it helps  - just a little bit - to know that *someone* will know i did that 😁

I have no affiliation with Strava and there is plenty I dislike about it. But I think it can be a really helpful social support tool for people at all levels - maybe especially beginners

Hi Strava fans! I looked at DesFit's Strava profile (https://www.strava.com/athletes/219850) and noticed that while he has screenshots uploaded to his activities, these don't appear in his photos list (only "real" photos appear).

I can't for the life of me work out how to do that. I like adding screenshots to activities, but I'd prefer my photo feed to be just phots from outside rides etc.

Can anyone tell me how to do it?

After the new year my pixel watch 2 suddenly stopped tracking GPS. All of the permissions are enabled on both watch and phone, and the watch says it's using GPS whole I'm on my run. But the activity uploaded to Strava has no route. Has anyone encountered this and fixed it? I'm ready to factory reset my watch!

Pixel watch 2, Wear OS 5.0, Strava app fully updated.

Hi all,

Ive read a bunch of posts on this topic but the most recent is a year old so figured I'd ask for up to date recommendations.

New Strava user here. I ended a super active year with no real data or tracking logged. I sometimes use onX to track long days hikes but never for the usual fitness/after work type stuff. Looking to have a better idea of what I accomplish this year. I do not plan to upgrade to a paid Strava account; is this a mistake?

The primary activities I am looking to track are: hiking, running, weight lifting, rock climbing, stationary bike. I understand alot of these are going to require manual entries, so I am looking for a device that will sync those activities with Strava the simplest.

I have a pretty low-tech Android (Motorola) phone and plan to keep it that way. My criteria is pretty basic: heart rate monitoring, GPS capabilities, and that's about it. I'm not sure if there's any sort of auto-detection sort of feature just in case I forget to activate, but that would be cool because I often likely will.

I am open to recommendations for useful Strava features I am unaware of. The simpler the better but I'm interested in cool data.

Thanks in advance!

TLDR: best basic watch/best useful Strava features?

Hi there.

I was playing around with Nike Run Club and connected it with my Strava account. As I didn't like it, I have disconnected NRC from Strava and deleted my account.

However, in Strava web, inside Settings, on the left hand side I can see a Partners Integrations section there (in the image attached in Spanish). Nike appears there; although it is disabled, why is it there? How can I get rid of it? Strava or NRC FAQ manuals aren't of much help.

I know it will vary from person to person, but this figure would already vary depending on the car used.

Anyone else's fitbit activities not automatically syncing with Strava recently? For me it starting around the new year, everything's fine on fitbit but I've had to export the fitbit (Charge 5) data to manually upload them to Strava, where then all data from my runs is just fine.

Do you guys know if this is a fitbit issue or a Strava issue? In Strava it's saying my fitbit is still connected

Hello! I recently subscribed to an annual plan but then decided immediately to change to monthly. The app said that "Any remaining time on your plan will be prorated and credited back to your payment method by Google Play."

Does this mean that I'll get my money back from what I spent for the annual plan minus the payment from monthly plan? How long will the "prorated and credited back" part take?

Thank you!

You just link your Strava account, select the track, and load videos. You simply arrange the gauges and press submit. You can trim the videos if needed, and submit them for processing (Takes 10-60min).
If the time on your video is off, you can fix it using the web interface with the help of google street view showing the current location https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeTI-dj1OA8

P.S I process Strava activity data and videos by temporarily uploading them to my server. The data is used solely to create the telemetry overlay on the video. Once the processed video is ready, I provide the user with a download link and delete all data from the server within 1 week. I do not store data long-term or use it for any other purposes
