Can I hide Heart Rate when I share Activities

Saw a someone show his ride on Facebook minus his heart rate. All other graphs were there (Cadence, Elevation, etc.). How do I do this?

    Don't wear the HR strap :-)

    Actually such feature would be nice. Also was looking for such possibility,

    Isn't that obvious? Don't won't to share my HR data.
  • My question isn't why you don't want the graph to be shown. I want to know why you want to hide your heart rate data at all. What information is lurking in your heart rate data that I'm not considering?

    If you want to make it private just because you want it private, then why not ask for every piece of data to have privacy protection individually (position, elevation, start time, duration, distance, cadence, maximum speed, average speed, elevation gain, training effect, stride length, device type, weather conditions, ...)? If you want to make it private because you feel that others knowing your heart rate for a given pace gives them some sort of advantage, I'm curious to know.

    Agreed, what I meant was extended privacy for published data. :)
  • Haven't seen the new Connect yet but does it have a feature like Strava where you can hide an area round your home - that seems to me to be one of the most important privacy options - not sure how sensitive I am about people seeing my pace, cadence heartrate etc
  • No, there is no support for privacy zones.

    I think that's a false sense of security. If anyone really wanted to find you based on your activity path, then all they have to do is wait around where your activity ends, and when you show up on a later ride, they can follow you the rest of the way home.
  • Not worried about being mugged more about making it obvious when I am regularly running from my house and therefore it might be empty. Most of my runs when I'm home start from the house and return to the house so hiding an area round the house just provides a modicum of protection. Although having said that I don't run to a very repeatable schedule anyway and there's usually people in the house when I'm running anyway :)
