1. 5/5Basic App Okay; Not Worth a Subscription

   Personally, the only reason I use this app is to keep in touch with friends for running, so I will definitely be canceling my subscription since keeping in touch is free. I try to support companies because I feel they are providing a service and I believe in that. And when a subscription promises higher features and better support, I feel like doing it. But after a while of being annoyed at a lack of in app features for a subscription, I have to take my money elsewhere. Here is the big reason for the cancel - all the features I want to use I have to log-in to the internet site to optimize. For a paid subscriber I should be able to optimize right in app. Could be my phone version (iPhone 6), but honestly, if that is the reason, I feel even more motivated to cancel. My phone is fully functional with other apps. I basically use my apps on my phone for a lot. And if a company is spending the money on the app development (through subscriptions), some basic things like being able to change shoe brands should be matter of fact (gotta log-in to the site for that). Another dislike - making a route is quite annoying. Again have to log-in for that. Also, the GPS tracking is not accurate (could be my phone). I could go on. These are my personal annoyances. Some people may be okay with having to log-in just to alter shoes or when trying to make a route, but not my cup of tea. I am on the go so I want the in-app functionality. Short of that, not worth the subscription price. I can keep up with friends other ways. Don’t need to pay for it. Lesson learned for me.

2. 5/5Strava is great!!! 🤩 PLEASE READ!!! I SPENT A LONG TIME ON THIS 😂

   Obviously the best running app with global competition. Love the local legends and top ten segments. It keeps your mileage and hours on running (my sport) biking (my hobby) and tons of other activities from workouts to pickleball. It can also help you keep track of mileage on your shoes or bike which is amazing because it can prevent injuries and give you an idea of when you need to get new gear. Obviously there are some things they can improve like when I want to manually upload a run, it has to be to the nearest .1 of a mile so I can’t set it to for example 2.75 it would have to be 2.70 or 2.80 but with everything good there is a little bad. Can’t really complain much though. Love the clubs and groups you can join makes it really easy for my xc coaches to keep up track of everyone on the team’s mileage. It’s also great motivation to run. 😂 The other thing I like is that it is compatible to my Garmin watch, so I finish my run or bike or other activity and it goes to the Garmin app the automatically goes to strava (so I don’t have to do anything except type the description of my run). It’s also very easy if you don’t want other people to see your profile. You can easily set it to where only your followers can see your profile. This is great if you have a kid on there and you don’t want everyone to see their profile. Overall it is an amazing app for anyone looking to do any type of activities and coaches for xc or biking teams to keep up with everyone’s stuff. Love the app and couldn’t be happier with it, probably wouldn’t be where I am in xc and track without it. 😁 Hope I could help, God bless!

3. 4/5Good for tracking and sharing workouts

   I enjoy using this for tracking the distance, elevation gain, and other numbers linked to my cycling, at least as decent estimates. And KOMs add a fun extra challenge to some rides, though I don’t have too much faith in especially the longer segment timing. I have noticed when friends and I are riding together and we start a segment at the exact same time, but I make it to the end of the road or segment sometimes 30 seconds ahead of them, but they rank higher than me on the segment for that day? But my only real issue with this app beside a few bugs that the Strava team does a good job with patching quickly, is the notifications. I like that they pop up on my phone and alert me when someone has commented, gave kudos, or follow requested. However, when you click on the notification and open the app to display whatever the notification was about, to get rid of the in app notification icon, you have to sometimes go from your notification page, to your feed page, back to your notification page, and then finally back to your feed page. And the notifications stack for specific activities, so if you got 20 kudos since you checked last, only the most recent person pops up as giving you kudos. Not a big deal, but like other social media apps, it can be nice to know which of your friends has given you kudos without having to go into the activity and searching through to see. All around this is a really great app, but the little issues with user friendliness in this regard, keep it from 5 stars for me.

4. 5/5Must Have for Mountain Bikers

   I’m still relatively new to mountain biking. Been riding for 3 years now, but mostly at a beginner level, as I typically don’t ride enough to qualify myself as an intermediate rider. Without fact-checking, I’d say I average 6-8 rides per year, although I recently set a goal to ride at least once every weekend (tomorrow will be 5 in a row). What I do know is that every single person I ride with uses Strava, including some very experienced riders. Some use GPS watches and upload their rides when they get home, and some, like me, use the cell phone app. If you’ve got the latest Apple Watch like me, Strava can be used very conveniently without getting your phone out of your bag/pocket. The app offers a great way to track your mileage, speed, elevation, segments/trails ridden, personal record times, etc. - all with relative accuracy. Over the past few years, they have added hiking and a few other modes of travel, which I think is great (would love to see skiing and snowboarding eventually). The app is a great way to track your own rides, see what friends are doing, see who else is riding trails, and see how fast others are riding, to help set goals and even compete. You can upload ride photos directly into Strava. You can also set it up for several different bikes, if you’ve got more than one, unlike me. There are even challenges and clubs you can join, although I haven’t explored much of that feature. I use Strava, for free, for the very simple function of tracking my rides, and checking out what my friends are riding. The only thing I don’t think Strava provides, which I use Trailforks for, is finding available trails and trail systems in any area.

5. 3/5Good app, but recent updates not so good

   I love Strava and use it daily to track my runs, skis, etc. However, the most recent updates to the app have deteriorated the experience significantly. Most notably, the latest update to viewing activities, specifically the navigation is very cumbersome and difficult to use. For example, when viewing an activity, the global navigation doesn’t display, instead there’s an arrow in the top left corner that will take you back, unless you’ve scrolled then it takes you up. If I want to get back to my home feed there’s no quick way to do it, I often have to tap multiple times to exit the activity. This gets worse if I entered the activity through notifications, where sometimes I have to tap the back button 3-4 times just to exit an activity and get back to my home feed. There needs to be a quick one tap way to exit an activity back to the home feed. Additionally, the most recent update that gives premium members a different badge and highlights the data sections to show what is for premium members only is strange and feels like you’re marketing to people that have already paid for a premium membership. I know that I get additional features as a premium member, which is why I am paying, I don’t need it highlighted once I have already subscribed. Other things like suggested routes in my feed is not something I want or use, and “athlete intelligence” is strange and not helpful. Most of the updates to this app in the past couple of years feel like they either add no value or deteriorate the experience. If there was a way to go back to what the app was a few years ago I would do it immediately!

1. 5/5

   Strava is a great fitness app for tracking running, cycling, and other outdoor activities. It provides useful performance data, route tracking, and a strong community feature that helps motivate users. While some advanced features require a subscription, the app is a valuable tool for staying active and monitoring progress.

   Synchronisierung mit Samsung Health erzeugt nur Bugs, plötzlich sind Workouts doppelt oder fehlen ganz. Schade

3. 5/5

   I love Strava for motivating an active lifestyle and keeping in touch with friends. I am overjoyed that a recent update removed annoying cropping of photos and brought back easily readable captions! This is half the fun of Strava.
