No more preferred Strava Live segments shown while running

It may be Strava that needs to handle that - no Fenix 7, indeed:

I knew about that. But why don't they support new watches?

I can't see any "strava segments" app available in Garmin store, as I had on my previous watch.

As long as you are a subscribed Strava member and you've "starred" you favorite segments and linked your Garmin account (segments) to Strava, the segments will automatically be sync'd to your watch.  The segment information will pop up on the Live Segment screen of your watch as you approach and run/ride through the segment.

Sure. But this worked properly on Fenix 6, and not in my new Fenix 7. The newest seems not supported as stated in the link above on Strava support. Really I have no idea why and/or if it will be fixed

My f7X Pro works as expected.  I didn't have to touch anything on the watch side.  Might be worth connect to Garmin Express to make sure the segments get sync'd to the watch.

I use Strava Live segments on my Fenix 7X all the time. It works the same way it worked with Fenix 6X, even more reliably. 

That Strava article linked above is incorrect. 

Mine doesn’t. 
Did you download any app from the store?

Do I need to add any data page in my activity? I really don’t remember what I did on my 6.

I also owned a 6X, 7X, and now a 7X Pro.  Neither of those watches required anything special on the watch side.  I did not load any CIQ apps.  

Make sure you are a Strava Subscriber and follow these instructions:

https://support.strava.com/hc/en-us/articles/216918277-Strava-Live-Segments-on-your-Garmin

Segments are built-in - there is nothing to download. Make sure you have Strava segments (not Garmin segments) are chosen in Garmin connect. But that should be the case since you used segments before. Also make sure segment alerts are enabled. These are enabled per activity type and need to be set either on the watch or in watch settings part of Garmin Connect (Garmin Connect Mobile can now modify many watch settings directly in the app, which want possible with Fenix 6).

Also, if you connect your watch to a computer you should be able to see if you have those segments on the watch or not. Each segment appears as a separate FIT file.
