Is Strava Premium Worth it in 2023? | NEW FEATURES

Awesome. Thanks Will.

I'm using Stravistix (a Chrome extension), which is great, if you're on the free version. You might wanna check that out.

I would pay just to have access to the heat map.

Informative. No nonsense. No fudge reply. Helpfull

Had to stop watching because this hipster video has a guy in it who talks like a preppy lesbian. Cant take him seriously, is this how gay guys talk? Or is he a closet lesbian?
Who's knows?... who gives a toss

You can actually use some part of Strava Routes free if you know a little about programming.

My garmin does all this for free? Think I’ll stick with free Strava

Don't need to watch:
Answer=NO

Only reason I use Strava is to upload Garmin tracks to Trailforks. If Trailforks ever allows direct downloads from Garmin, there's really no reason for me to use Strava.

Can you connect a power meter to strava. Can it also show current speed instead of average speed

“If it’s free, it’s for mel

Likes the vid I requested to follow you on Strava

This app used to be fantastic, now it’s just garbage 👎🏻

Hey man,
I never used it before. Is it worth it for a person has never used it before? I am a newbie to running planning on starting in the new year. I have been debating between this or NRC. What would you do? I have a Apple Watch.

Miles.. No.. Need meters..

Just subscribed to training peaks. Great app which gives you functions that is on strava subscription mode. Great to keep an eye on your fitness... And komoot is great for creating routes

I use garmi. Stuff then it uploads to strava and analysing us done on garmin connect strava is just a social thing for different platforms to connect in one place

Thinking of going back to the free and subbing to training peaks instead. I always use Komoot when planning trips so that covers mapping.

I have a question and wish if you can answer. I Have an I watch series 5 and i phone 11 max. Things I can do with a different app is, Able to use my phone like a bike computer to see my speed ,elevation etc. and I the same time my watch is monitoring my heart rate and whatever other information I choose to have. Does the Strava application support the same thing? so I have tried and it seems it does not. What it looks like is that you can only use either or . Thank you in advance.

I struggle to do outdoor workouts now following an injury in lockdown.

I’m really disappointed in Stravas lack of functionality and acknowledgement of my gym workouts! It records them from my watch and puts them on the feed, but as far as my profile is concerned-if I want to look like I’ve done anything I need to be a runner/cyclist/swimmer.

Justice for indoor workouts!! Give me challenges and metrics that runners have!

I love Strava but it’s just not accommodating to the sort of training I’m doing unfortunately :(

Nice video.. Thanks for the info...

would love a light version with the routes thing and comparing yourself to friends.

thought about paying but the garmin app has great analysis of runs and rides for me so since i’m not fussed about segments and can even plan routes on garmin then it’s not really worth the money

Interesting. Alienating the people that provide you with data that is the foundation and the primary value of your business.

Cheers buddy

Great vid really helped

I just bought a Wahoo Roam. I use the free version of Strava. Will 'segments' that I have starred show up on my headunit or is that a paid feature on Strava? Good video. Sub'd

You wanna play... You gotta pay. As technology changes, money will be needed to keep up with it. Strava isn’t asking any more than any other service. Take my $! Strava has been incredibly reliable over the years so I’m sticking with them.

Why can’t they support dark mode. That’s all I need to know. All that tech and still lagging behind on dark mode.

What is Strava? ;) Seriously I never found a need for me to join/use that stuff. I use Komoot for route planning, and the Garmin Connect to collect my data. Good and enough for me. Just Do It!!!

Great video!

This was a very clear and detailed video, thank you!

I feel there should be a paid "light" version. I just wanted to compare times to friends. Im just a casual mountain biker

I'm a runner only and also one of those annoying CR grabbers👑😁. The only thing I will miss is scrolling through the leader boards in a really nosey way to see who has done what...but like a strava window twitcher 😂

Great video!

I don't really care about features like routes or heatmaps or training or power zones, but removing segments leaderboard from free accounts? Segments and its leaderboards are the thing that made me want to push harder and become better. How about we forget about segments leaderboards, I can't even compare myself against my old times / timings!!! That is just plain stupid.

do both the cyclist and the contact have to pay the subscription to use the live beacon tracking?

Nice review. I think I'll go premium now so I can see where other 68y.o.'s stand lol.

As soon as I heard "subscription I say Good Bye! Like collecting my data is not enough already. Removed from my phone.

Nice Overview and very informative. Thanks for The Video!

Really helpful and clear video, thank you

No issue whatsoever with the subscription service, couple of energy bars a month? Good value I think. What I do wish they would get to grips with are the cheats. I'm tired of flagging segments that are simply not achievable on a standard bike. Most segments are worthless I know but these people really pi$$ me off...

I bought the subscription to thank Strava for giving me a platform to be accountable, motivate me to exercise and improved my overall well being. That in itself is priceless. Thanks STRAVA ♥️

I was upset at first, but then i realized if I'm not even in the top ten I have no shot at the segment. So, I'll just be a free guy.

Great review

I like to complain!

My health and fitness are important, but not "$60 to analyze my segments and view leaderboards during an economic crisis" important. Taking away features from long-time users was a terrible move by Strava, showing that they have no common sense when it comes to business ethics. I bet they would have made a better decision had they listened to users and employees rather than execs and board members.

Personally I would pay for summit. Great video, very clear and helpful
