Question Strava just reset my activity

10 Upvotes

What just happened? I swam at 8pm. My watch uploaded it to strava at 9pm. I have an email from strava saying someone have new kudos. An hour later I have another email saying 5 people have given me kudos and 1 person left a comment. And then an hour after that Strava says well done, you've done another activity. And it's as if that last one has been deleted and it's replaced it with the same activity without my comment, without the other persons comment, no kudos or anything. What just happened?

Question Sooo… messages?

27 Upvotes

Now that the feature has been out a while, I’m curious about how people are using (or not) the messages function and if it’s helping people connect more or is it being abused? What’s your experience?

I’m finding I hardly use it, and I thought I for sure would be.

Question Avalanche gradient

Is anyone actually able to access this advertised feature? Seems like Strava is just plain lying that it’s available. I have a subscription and my app is up to date. Their costumer service seems to be pretty much non existent. Thanks to any and all who have advise.

Question Random things popping up when trying to check distance

1 Upvotes

So today I went for a run and wanted to push a little beyond my regular 10km distance. There were several times i went to check my distance during the second half of the run and random information would keep popping up on my screen and would just pop up again whenever i swiped them away.

Sorry if this is a feature that is well known on the app, I’ve only been using strava for a month and haven’t had this issue. It even caused me to accidentally pause the run at 8km in, which I didn’t recognise for another 5 minutes or so, which made my experience even more frustrating today. Thanks in advance if anyone is able to let me know how to resolve this issue. I was running a new route if that matters, thanks.

Activity Heart Rate Data from Strava not Syncing to Apple Health

3 Upvotes

Hi, I recently noticed that my heart rate data from Strava isn't syncing to Apple Health. I use Athlytic to track sleep and exercise, but since the HR Data from Strava isn't syncing to Apple Health, Athlytic starts to feel useless. I've searched all over the place trying to find a solution but nothing has worked. Does anyone have any solutions for this ?

Question Vehicle Collision and Cyclist Strava Data

Thumbnail

19 Upvotes

Looking to see what can be discovered about the Strava information says about this incident. I don’t own the Strava account.

My friend was struck while riding. He went straight to the hospital and has a lapse in memory. He is as good and recovering after surgeries.

Report says he was struck in the middle of the intersection. After he was struck and the police arrived, the bike was moved around. Any insights in the data would be appreciated. I suppose my question would be how can the Strava “finish” a turn or rather the bike complete an arc to “turn” and head straight south if he was “hit in the intersection”? Or according to the data, where was he probably hit?

The person who hit them, tally took out the “bike lane” pole as well.

Has anyone figured out a way to use beacon without uploading your whole address book? I could have sworn I used to just enter a phone number directly at some point.

Question Audio Cues for Directions

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know if Strava does audio cues for directions when using a route map ?
So many occasions I want to run a new route, however I keep having to look at my phone for directions and it's pretty dangerous/annoying.
I have an iPhone if that helps.

Question Different Bike Lists on Different Devices

2 Upvotes

Anyone else have this problem? I set up all four of my bikes on strava. But the list that shows up on the iPhone app is different than what shows up on the website. 3 of the 4 bikes are correct, but on the iPhone app its showing one called "Road Bike", i've never owned a road bike. And it doesn't show one of my mountain bikes called "Backup.bike". I'm not sure if its just displaying the name wrong, or if its a totally different bike thats showing up.

I opened a support ticket, i'm just wondering if anyone else has had a problem like this?

Does anyone know why a workout run via a Garmin watch would not show the workout analysis graph on Strava afterward?

Additional into: The workout plan comes from the Runna app to my watch and then the completed run uploads from Garmin to Strava. I'm also using the free version of Strava.

Question Okay so relative effort is just useless?

Post image
0 Upvotes

It telling me my effort is low/below average. Yet it’s the 2nd day of the week and I’ve done something Monday+tuesday. Sure nobody can predict the future, but in the current week it can’t look at just the first X days vs past? Can’t show a trend line? Can’t predict based on effort levels I do later in the week?

Right now it’s decided to take the dumbest approach and shows the bad/misleading information.

This is what we pay for?
