Has Strava also removed the Cycling icon under “My Stats”? Mine went missing on the web site. I can still see it on the iOS app. I can only see Running, Snowshoeing, Skiing, and Walking on the web.

Sounds like Strava is increasing their prices……zero chance I re-up if this holds.
That said, it is interesting to compare and contrast TR’s communications re: pricing vs. the clear corporate greed of Strava. TR has been very open and communicative, arguably more than necessary. Strava is doing everything they can to not say what the actual new pricing will be and simply hoping people don’t notice.
Between the layoffs, the continual clawback of features behind the subscription wall and now this, it seems Strava’s financial situation is……not good.

These are the prices I saw (in pounds though):
The price of the company’s subscription service, which provides users with additional features unavailable on the app’s free version, such as route planning, segment competition, effort analysis, and a training dashboard, has now increased for monthly subscribers from £6.99 to £8.99 for 2023 – a jump of over 28 percent – while the annual subscription has risen from £47.99 to £54.99.

Yea I’ll probably cancel my membership, I only like using it to make routes or compare segments. Whatever it costs a year now ain’t worth it for a small boost in ego. Sure I can afford the higher price but I don’t see any value in it besides those 2 things.

Is Strava run by bots? They not only took away the year end recap in order to try and convince me to join but they also removed the bike tab and yearly totals from my profile on the web site:
But they still exist on the iOS app:
Before any punter jumps in to tell me I can’t complain about a free app, read again. There is no complaint above. It’s just an observation about a company that has no clue how to motivate their free tier (98% of users) to pay.

They send me email almost daily asking me to subscribe to get the review too. Cracks me up. Like the last 9 email didn’t work, but this 10th one will!

Its like a certain photo upload site I used in the early days of the internet and hadn’t visited it for years. Over the last year it has been sending me a daily email along the lines of, ‘your account is at risk of deletion and to prevent it upgrade at £x.xx a month’

Yeah, I’ve been getting the same emails. If there are still any photos there I don’t have elsewhere, I clearly don’t need them.
Didn’t they go from free to $400/year? Now that’s excessive.
At any rate, my price for Strava hasn’t changed… $0 is still $0. 
I’m not fast enough to make use of any paid features anyway.

I’m going to quote myself. So I think the missing bike icon under My Stats is just a software bug. I didn’t ride for 6 months but did other training and the bike icon disappeared. I recently started training again and the icon reappeared.
It seems that the icons are programed with recent activities in mind. Since I had ridden for six months of the year, the cycling stats were still relevant to me but I couldn’t view them until I had logged a ride.
Maybe nobody else ever found this bug? I’ve found other bugs in the past and Strava never fixed them. I could tell because people had been complaining about the same thing for 2 years in the Strava support forum.
