Will I get turn-by-turn directions during my activity as well? No, at this time, you’ll need to have the Apple Maps app installed in order to use this feature on an iPhone. The navigation app will automatically launch with directions from your current location to the start point of the Strava route.įAQs Can I use Google Maps for directions if I have an iPhone?.Tap Get Directions to open Apple Maps or Google Maps for iPhone or Android users, respectively.Open the route details page by tapping See Details.From the Strava mobile app, navigate to Maps > Routes to browse suggested routes or Maps > Saved > Saved Routes to access routes you’ve created and saved.Please be aware that you’ll need a navigation app installed on your phone in order to use this feature. It seems to have happened around the same time they introduced their new "eco-friendly, let's drive through residential streets for 5 miles with a million stop signs instead of taking the arterial" routing algorithm for cars.Ĭurious if anyone has similar experiences, and if anyone has suggestions for a bike routing app, since it seems Maps is only useful for cars now.Strava subscribers can get driving directions to the start of a route from the Maps tab of the Strava mobile app. It feels like whatever algorithm they had is gone, and now they just throw bikes in with cars, with no regards for where bike paths are located.
What's strange is that I'll load up routes that I know only because Google suggested them to me years ago, and now it's sending me on some insane path that will have me riding alongside tons of cars at 35+mph, while there is a bike path that can easily get you there with no cars involved. Has anyone noticed that bike directions are basically being treated as a car? It's so strange, because Maps now suggests taking major arterials (that have 2-lanes each way, and NO shoulder) while there are labeled (both on the Map and IRL) bike paths a single block over.
