The activity-tracking platform Strava is introducing a fresh set of activity categories, encompassing several that have been highly requested by its user community. Here’s what’s updated.
Strava is incorporating five new activity types into its platform, which include:
– Basketball
– Cricket
– Dance
– Padel
– Volleyball
This enhancement is designed to offer its “180M+ global users more precise methods to document the activities they already enjoy.” Until now, users engaged in any of these five activities had to categorize them under the all-encompassing “Workout” option, but they will now be able to monitor their performance with greater accuracy, in addition to the more than 50 sports types that are already available.
Strava emphasizes that padel is a particularly significant inclusion due to its swift worldwide expansion, boasting around 30 million amateur players. The company also mentioned that it intends to introduce more sports and activities in the future, though specific information regarding which or the timeline for their release has not been disclosed.
