Easily sync your workouts, runs, and data between Runna and Strava.

Connecting your Strava account to Runna ensures your runs automatically sync between both apps. No manual uploads needed. Here’s how to set it up in just a few steps.

Quick Steps Guide

  1. Open the Runna app on your phone.

  2. Tap your Profile icon (top-left corner).

  3. Select Connected Apps or Connected Apps & Devices.

  4. Choose Strava.

  5. Tap Connect to Strava or toggle the switch on.

  6. Log in to Strava when prompted and grant permission to connect.

  7. Confirm the connection. Once synced, your completed runs will automatically upload to Strava.

Troubleshooting

Strava not syncing to Runna? Try these quick fixes:

  • Wrong account: Double-check you’re logging into the right Strava profile (especially if you use Apple, Google, or Facebook logins).

  • Connection error: Go to Profile → Connected Apps → Strava, toggle off, then back on. Log in again and reauthorize.

  • Duplicate activities: If your Garmin or other GPS watch also connects to Strava, avoid recording in both places. Record in one — Runna or your watch — not both.

Pro Tips

  • Keep both apps up to date for smooth syncing.

  • Make sure your phone has internet access when you finish your run.

  • Edits made in Strava won’t sync back to Runna, adjust details in Runna for accuracy.

Still Stuck?

If runs aren’t syncing after reconnecting, reach out via the Support section of the app to speak to a member of the team. Our team can check your connection and help you sync your activities.

The Takeaway

Once your Strava account is connected, your runs will sync automatically, keeping all your data in one place. It’s the simplest way to stay consistent, track your progress, and share your achievements with the Runna and Strava communities.
