Harryn Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Im wondering the same thing, linked my strava and it doesnt show up.Take a look a few pages back, Myles dealt with the issue. Apparently if you de-link and then re-link it jigs your points back into action. Rocket-Boy 1

Apparently if you de-link and then re-link it jigs your points back into action.I have not used strava yet, just linked it today so cant tell if points pull through or not.i have an icon for trainingpeaks but none for nike+ or strava(which I have used before)Â Will take a look back though and see if I can see what Myles said about it.Thanks for the pointer.

HBO Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 My Strava also doesn't want to link. Deleted both Strava and Vitality apps and then tried to link again but no success. I've e-mailed them last week Wednesday, but no reply yet. Runbikeswim 1
Pure Savage Posted November 30, 2015 Author Posted November 30, 2015 Found out the if you only use the STRAVA app to record your rides, vitality does not count it. Has to be from a device.

Has to be from a device.that doesn't compute... STRAVA when run from a phone is considered a "device upload" Only thing it wouldn't have is HR data... Very strange.

It just pulls direct from GC. But before that, I was also getting points from Strava recorded activities.  Good to see it's still running.Â
Tubehunter Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 Found out the if you only use the STRAVA app to record your rides, vitality does not count it. Has to be from a device. I'm guessing you're putting in manual ride entries and nothing logged by a device. In which case it's understandable that Disco would not give points for that, as anyone can simply create any amount of fictional training data that cannot be vetted back against actual data.

Not for Manual.
Bub Marley Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 Alternatively, you could use the Cyclemeter app like I am and then link Strava to that app. Vitality should pull through then as it works for me.
