Import activities from Strava

When setting up the import of activities from Strava, make sure to check allow private activities (8️⃣) if you want to share your private activities with us.

Right after connecting, you can request to import the last 50 activities if you wish (🔟). They will appear in your RunMotion Coach app in less than 5 minutes.

My Strava activity didn't appear

If after 2 hours your Strava activity hasn't appeared in RunMotion Coach, you can try changing the title of the activity on Strava. Usually, Strava will then resend the activity to us.

I also want to connect my GPS watch, will I get a duplicate?

Usually not. When two different sources send the same activity, we keep the one from the GPS watch, because it also includes kilometer-by-kilometer details from the GPS data.

The negative elevation is missing, is that normal?

On Strava, the total negative elevation gain is not available (only positive elevation is), so we can't include it in your activity details. It’s the only missing value on Strava.
