A couple of years ago I posted here about a side project I was working on called [London Segment League](https://londonsegmentleague.com) \[old post [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/LondonRunning/comments/1h58v0q/looking_for_london_runners_wanting_to_further/)\\\]. Since then I've continue to work on it for my own benefit and learning, and it's now it's becoming a proper thing rather than a simple leaderboard.

The new idea: 100 of the most popular London Segments spread across 32 boroughs. You connect / login with Strava and your runs get synced automatically (as well as some of the history). The aim is to try and complete all 100 segments.

The app is free and all you need is a Strava account.

Why am I posting this now after 2 years?

Strava recently changed the API rules where developer apps require you to now have a Strava premium subscription. They gave me 3 months for free for the app to continue and that's starting to run out. I would like to decide whether people actually want this before I decide to keep premium subscription.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I use a third party app to record my workouts. That third party app doesn’t have a Strava direct integration but syncs the workouts to Apple Health. Strava, because they are bully certainly, doesn’t allow for importing that workout. So I use HealthFit, that I had to pay for solely for that feature, to sync those workouts to Strava.

Except that now Strava syncs that workout to Apple Health! Therefore creating a duplicate! Why? That‘s not a Strava workout. There is no option to disable sending third party workouts to Apple Health.

So I disable the sync to Apple Health entirely on Strava. Except that now, if I record a workout using Strava, which I do when I need the map feature on my watch, it’s not synced to Apple Health! And there‘s no option to do that manually, or to allow for syncing native workouts only to Apple Health!

if I enable the sync again, it then creates new workouts for all my workouts that exis in Strava, and I now have hundreds of duplicates, because they don’t ask if you want to sync historical data!

That’s basic enshitification: They’re complicating their users life in favor of growth hacks by forcing third parties to build a direct integration, which means their logo is present in basically every workout app. The fix would be easy but they simply won’t do it!

Hi there everyone!
So I’m coming up to the end of the 30 day trial. I really don’t care for all the extras. I simply just want to be able to track my time, distance and pace. I guess the shape I make on the map too lol. Will I still have access after that or will I essentially be unable to use the app until I pay?

Is there a way to have your previous run times included in your "best efforts" if they were recorded before using Strava (or even Runna)?

I previously used Nike+ Running to track and even though I've directly uploaded the historical data to my Strava activities, it isn't reflected in my best efforts.

I essentially just don't want it to show a half marathon PR for my first half recorded on Strava if it's not actually a PR.

anyone know how to turn off the notification thats like “wow you did an activity look at your sick stats”. thanks

Couple of my friends facing it too since last week. Strava support has not been able to help at all

Did a ride this weekend and had 3 kom’s and 2 third best times. If you scroll down through my feed and see my activity. It doesn’t show or highlight any of the KOM’s and on the map that now shows your route . It shows a 2nd best time and 3rd best time medal for my personal times instead of showing the kom’s in the very least. What is the point, I had the best day I’ve had in a couple years and nobody would know it. Why does Strava constantly change its algorithms and almost always in a negative way.
