Syncing some, not all, activities to Strava

Former Member over 10 years ago

I have a Vivofit and Edge 510. I set up GC and Strava to auto sync but don't want every gym session, dog walk, etc. to upload. ultimately, I just want my 510 activities to upload.

I have spent hours reading and searching; it can't be impossible nor this complicated? Alternatively, I would be ok with being able to "share" to Strava from the GC app. But the only options for this don't include Strava (iPhone setting?) - only mail, facebook etc.. and Under Armour Record.

Want to be able to do it all from iohone. No computers.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I know this question is from 7 years ago, but thought I would offer a solution for anyone else who comes across this question in a search, like I just did.

There is no way to set only certain types of activities to sync from Garmin to Strava, but this is a usable workaround.

Set your privacy in Strava for all new activities to "Only Me." New activities in Strava will not be visible to anyone else.

After recording an activity with your Garmin that you want to be visible on Strava, edit that activity in Strava and make it visible to your Followers or Everyone, as you desire.

If you like, you can delete the other activities in your Strava account, the ones that you don't want to be visible there. Or you can leave them and they will only be visible to you.

Yes. Mentioned here by trux
Is it possible to only upload select activities to Strava without doing it manually? I don’t want to upload gym, yoga or Pilates sessions
