Strava not working on Galaxy S22 Ultra
Discussion
Morning all,
Does anyone have any thoughts as to why Strava isn't working on my phone?
I keep getting a "Sorry, Strava has recovered from a problem" message, and it seems to be killing recording the instant I turn the screen off and put the phone in my pocket.
I've turned off auto-pause, but I'm not sure what else to try?

I had the same issue because of power saving settings for the app got enabled in Android. Check the app has Optimized and not a Restricted battery profile. Also check the Background Usage Limits in the battery section and remove it from the Sleeping/Deep Sleeping Apps list. I added it to the Never Sleeping Apps section.

I think this may be the answer. I'll check next time I use it, having just put it on the "never sleep" list. Edited by dogbucket on Tuesday 24th May 20:02

I have the same phone and have no problems running Strava except it often 'spikes' on the location when recording an activity leading to a false distance measurement. I cannot work out why, none of my other phones have had this issue. Seems like a GPS bug.
You need to set your phone to use GPS only for the location services. When it uses GPS, WiFi and Mobile networks it pings the mobile towers somehow and strava tracks the pings as distance ridden.I did once manage to achieve 215kph using this method though..
