You can add videos and photos anytime after completing an activity on Strava. We expect all Strava athletes to honor the Strava Community Standards, and this expectation applies to videos and photos you share with our community.
Videos up to 30 seconds long are supported. If your video is longer than 30 seconds and you want to choose which 30 seconds are included, we recommend cropping your video within your camera roll. Otherwise, videos longer than 30 seconds will be automatically cropped to the first 30 seconds.
Portrait, panoramic, landscape, and square aspect ratios are all supported.
There's no limit on the number of videos or photos you can attach to your activity. However, activities on the mobile app will only display six, while the web will show 12.
Uploading Videos and Photos
From the Strava Mobile App
Open the activity you wish to edit and tap the ellipsis icon > Edit Activity. Videos and photos can also be added before saving an activity recorded with our mobile app.
Tap the Upload Image icon. Navigate to your phone's media library to find any videos and/or photos you wish to upload.
Tap on all the videos and photos you wish to upload, then tap Add.
When you're ready to publish the activity, tap Update Activity or Save at the bottom.
From the Strava Website
Open the activity you wish to edit and select the pencil icon.
Select within the box towards the bottom of the page under Media.
Select the image stored locally on your computer and select Open. Alternatively, you can drag and drop the files into the photo box.
When you're ready to publish the edits, select Save in the upper right corner of the edit activity window.
Managing Videos and Photos
From the activity edit screen, you can select a highlight image, delete videos or photos, or add additional media.
You can choose which video or photo appears as the highlighted image for the activity. From the edit activity screen, long-press the desired thumbnail, and the "Set as Highlight Video or Photo" option will appear. The selected media will then be underlined in orange.
On the Strava website, you can drag and drop media to change the order in which it appears. This option is also available on the Strava mobile app by selecting Edit Media on the activity edit screen.
To remove a video or photo from an activity, tap or select the media you wish to remove and choose Delete from the edit activity screen.
FAQs
Why aren't my videos and photos appearing in the order I uploaded them?
We're experiencing an issue where videos and photos appear in random order instead of the order they were uploaded. We apologize for any inconvenience as we work to resolve this issue.
Can I stop videos from automatically playing in my feed?
Yes, you control this option from either the mobile app or website. Any changes made will be applied to both platforms.
