General Question Paid subscription - worth it?

7 Upvotes

My free subscription trial is ending soon. If I don’t pay for a monthly/yearly subscription will I lose the map of my runs, and the achievements? What else are the major differences between paid/unpaid?
I’m at the veeeery start of my running journey, so the extra bits on Strava have been motivating, but I don’t know if they’re worth the money.

Could anyone show me a screenshot of their workout summary (without paid subscription) to help me decide?

NB. I only had the non paid version for a very short time before the free trial began so I can’t remember what it looked like. Thanks.

GPS Question Strava no longer can find GPS. iPhone 18 pro max with latest iOS update 27.2

Reddit Strava besties and geniuses - any insight into what seems to be a known issue where Strava does not record GPS at all or does it erratically (suddenly, since last week’s updates)?

I spoke to Apple last week and they suggested that the problem would be solved in a future update. Well 27.2 update has not solved the problem. Strava still cannot track my movement at all (cycling) or accurately (running” and shows NO movement on the screen during activity

For a run yesterday it showed no mileage and then showed wacko run movement when I finished the run with incorrect timing and distance. Cycling now shows zero movement, even when “gps is acquired” , no time or distance at all when done.

Apple Watch having no problem with these activities. I tried all the little fixes and checked settings as advised online - makes absolutely no difference.

I’ve also seen some discussion that with my provider T-Mobile there is a known problem with Strava and iOS and cell towers

Strava is now useless to me. I use it in different ways than Apple Watch x fitness. I’m assuming it’s an Apple issue but I have no way of knowing.

Also after the update I was seeing doubling on cycling which has not happened before, until it totally stopped working. I traditionally have been able to start activities in both Watch and Strava with no conflicts - I have reasons for doing that, especially if I want to record a long ride with other activities involved

Very disappointed.

Sync Question Strava says it took me 207hr to run a 5K?

Samsung is reporting I ran 2mi. Anyone else have extremely weird glitches? This is only the second time I’ve used the app and I was hoping to get some realistic tracking. Kind of sad. Google search says there is a glitch between Samsung and Strava which is fantastic because I just switched to all android devices.

General Question Strava archive share

• Upvotes

Would someone be willing to share his/her strava archive so I can write an importer for my site ? I could create an account but I would have no real data and I fear it would not be representative

miscellaneous Strava stuck on login loop.

The app has been on a log in loop for a couple of weeks. When I try to log in with my Google account, it kicks me back to the log in page. If I try to use the email, it throws a server error message. I am using a Motorola Edge 60 fusion with Android 16.

Anyone else seen this ?

miscellaneous Apple Watch Map Disable Option

4 Upvotes

Strava team, please provide us an option to disable the map on the Apple watch app. Or, disable the automatic switch to the map. I do not care to look at the map. I know where I am. I have ran this route 200 times in the past year. Stop switching to the map.

It drains my battery and makes it a pain in the ass to view my pace and distance when I have to get a swipe down to register EVERY time I look at my pace. Which doesn't work when I'm drenched with sweat or in the rain.

This has been going on for over half a year. I'm a software engineer. Worst case scenario this is 3 story points and some testing you probably send to an offshores QA team... get it together. You're lucky my annual subscription renewed without me noticing.

General Question When does the global heatmap ACTUALLY update?

5 Upvotes

The website docs say monthly. I’ve been monitoring it and specific zoomed in areas (yes I know the criteria that adds to the heatmap) and it’s been just about 2 months with no update.

GPS Question Strava out of nowhere used 2.3 GBs of my data in just one week. What is the cause of this?

I was shocked when my provider told me my data was nearly finished. Then I looked it up and Strava ate so mucb data!! Can anyone explain how this happened?

I only use strava for my GPS, and use no other features. Just use it to track how far I am cycling.

I used Strava for over 2 years now and this has never happened to me before, second screenshot is comparison to last week when I also cycled the same amount I always do.

What happened here?
