Started my fitness journey.
Started my fitness journey.
A few months back I started tracking my walks. I do 2 miles a day minimum, and just being able to see all the data set me on my journey to lose weight and get fitter. I really like comparing segments so I can see my pace, and taking part in all the challenges.
I now use Strava, and Garmin app together. Very good app.

An apparently rubbish company that seems to steal your data and misuses it. They somehow got hold of my email when I have absolutely no interest in what they have to offer and I have never expressed any interest in them whatsoever.
The app isn't bad but the customer…
The app isn't bad but the customer service is terrible... I call the customer service number and no one answers, I leave a voicemail and no one returns the call, I send an email and get a response in a week but the response indicates that the customer service person is unfamiliar with the app. It's been a month and I have yet to get a response to my issue. They want to play the "you find your own answer in our list of FAQ's". Strava has joined the customer service race to the bottom.
Almost impossible to unsubscribe
Almost impossible to unsubscribe. It must be borderline legal to make it so difficult to end your subscription.

If I can give them no stars then I would!
I have a free account in the UK, which I’ve never paid for. I used it twice in San Francisco for two bike rides and Strava have charges me two lots of £47.99 on the same day!! The app never asked for permission or credit card details. They just helped themselves to my money. I really don’t know how!
I will be cancelling my account and reporting the fraudulent transaction to my credit card provider. AVOID!!
Do not even think about using Strava
Do not even think about using Strava. It is 9 miles of bad road. There website look like a phone book, nothing seem to work even after great effort, and there is no meaningful help. There is no phone number to call and no chat help. If you request help, you are sent 30 articles to read. My bike map is completely inaccurate and has you taking impossible routes. You never know when it is on and you often get no record of your activity. Use the Apple Fitness App instead. They have support and do not charge.

For some reason I ended up with two accounts...took months to get my data from the old account...opened two "tickets" to support as the instructions on re-uploading the data were unclear/didn't work...gave me advice that as a non-techie I couldn't make work..then closed the ticket ....then, when I clicked to give feedback...I couldn't ! As they had logged it as 'solved'. It wasn't.

I was forced to use Strava as part of what is essentially a sponsored walk.
Strava, and its inability to actually sync efficiently, has somewhat soured the experience.
How much time and effort should it need to get your Cr app to sync with JustGiving

Downloaded the free strava app it doesn't do anything, just trying to sell the premium app.
Just a big con.

I paid for an annual subscription in December, 2021. Strava continues to invoice me for the subscription. I have proof of payment. I am not receiving the service that I paid for. Customer service is nonexistent.
Loyal customers pay more?!
I cannot see why to subscript. The price is extreme since the longer you use the app the more you pay, way to tell your customers how much you love them! Why can’t I just pay once? I also think the extra features are useless to me. I have cancelled my subscription, and will use the free app.
Only using the free app version so far…
Only using the free app version so far for my runs and I really like it. Its a bit of fun and has great features. Give it a go.
Pointless and do nothing about policing activities
Strava used to be good but they do nothing about E bikes or rides being recorded as runs ruining the leaderboards. If you want to compete on climbs it is pointless as they could easily use an algorithm to detect e bikes or just give people a nudge if the activity looks incorrect. Most people record what bike they used so even it is confidential to the user they could ask you to log if it is an e bike or regular bike. Any city road leaderboard for runs is dominated by people on bikes. It used to be a good training tool to try and climb the leaderboard and compete with others but it is useless now. If there are 500 runners on a segment the top of the leaderboard is unlikely to be someone who's done their first 5km run and recorded it on an phone. This would be obvious to Strava and they could just give you a prompt before you save the activity. Then they started charging for the privilege and giving almost nothing back in return. They say you can flag an activity but it shouldn't be up to you to identify millions of wrong activity recordings. For these reasons I'll be getting rid of Strava.

I use this almost daily and apart from the dodgy route planner find the website and app interfaces great.
Issue sorted quickly and without any argument
I also inadvertently bought a 14 month subscription thinking it was a free trial (the get two months free causing the confusion) however the response to my email (cancelling my paid for subscription and sorting out a refund) was done quickly and without any fuss.
Only feedback to Strava, maybe think about how promotions are worded to avoid confusion in the future.
Better than you think
I accidentally bought an annual subscription plan. I quickly realized and sent Strava Support a refund request. After reading bad reviews on Trustpilot and Reddit about Strava Support, I must say I was sceptical of how long it would take, and if I would be getting a full refund. Strava Support proved me wrong. Fast response time, a short and precise text from a supporter and a full refund. Overall the app is great and Summit is good for data hungry beginners. Of course lacking bits here and there.
Most of the bad reviews are just people complaining about not cancelling auto-renewal after end free-trial, and calling it a scam. Things that don't justify the product and Strava Support.
Keep up the good work Strava and especially Strava Support.
I am not unhappy with Strava itself
I am not unhappy with Strava itself. I happen to have an issue with something broken in my profile. When you then try to have it repaired, communication with helpdesk is a continuous disconnect. Answer after answer they (..) come with totally unrelated (random ?) feedback. It is either a very bad AI on their side or an incompentent person. And it ends with 'good luck' - without a resolution. In case someone at strava is reading along and has any interest in improving customer experience : case 2278210.
A reaaaal scam
A reaaaal scam, i didn t even know this thing until 170$ have been taken off from my account, i didn t even fil anything, didn t put my credit card or anything, stay away from it as far as you can.
I had to cancel my credit card and all, they took a bit of money everyday from my account.
Lousy
Lousy. Consistently fails to record distance and time. Uninstalled and reinstalled - nope. Still rubbish.
