v2.8.0 New Features
- Physical Therapy Activity Type
Added "Physical Therapy" to the Activity Types filter (56 types total).
Strava introduced Physical Therapy as a dedicated sport type for recording recovery & rehabilitation sessions; entries are matched via the activity icon label in the feed.

• 4 New Activity Tags
  Added "Indoor Cycling", "Long Run", "Treadmill" and "Competition" to the Activity Tags filter (11 tags total).
  Strava's tag picker shows different tags per sport; all are matched by the tag text rendered on the feed entry. "Hide All Tags" now includes the new tags as well.
• Hide Untagged Option
  New "Hide Untagged" checkbox next to "Hide All Tags" in the Activity Tags section.
  Hides all activities that have no tags at all; independent of the individual tag chips.
• Mobile Responsive Layout — Activity Details (Beta)
  New opt-in "Mobile Responsive" mode that reflows Strava activity detail pages for phones and narrow browser windows; the desktop layout is unchanged.
  Restores Strava's native one-line Name–Type header and reorganises the extra stats into a clean, responsive grid.
  Adds swipe / mouse-drag panning with a floating indicator (and edge fade) for the fixed-width elevation chart and wide segment tables, so off-screen content is easy to reach.
• Adds a floating Back to Top button on long detail pages (appears after scrolling about half a screen; intentionally not shown on the feed).
• Activity photo lightboxes now open full-size and can be swiped between on mobile.

🚧 Work in progress: only activity detail pages are responsive so far — the dashboard and other pages will follow in future updates.

v2.8.0 Bug Fixes
- Notification Badge Requiring Two Opens to Clear (Mobile)
Fixed the red notification count on our notification bell surviving the first open on mobile/slow connections. Opening the bell fires the notification list fetch and the mark-all-read request concurrently; the list fetch often returned stale unread data and re-showed the badge after it had been cleared.
The list fetch now only updates a positive badge count; the mark-all-read response is the single authority for clearing it, making the result independent of response order.

• Feed Jumping Back to Top on Load-More
  Fixed the feed sometimes scrolling you back up (losing your place) when Strava finished loading more activities. A scroll anchor now keeps the top-most visible entry in position across load-more updates.
  No Feedback When Opening In-App Links
• Added a thin orange loading bar along the top of the page that appears while a link's view is loading, so a slow (filter-heavy) navigation no longer feels like the page has frozen.
• Detail-Page Lightbox Photos Rendered Too Small
  Activity-detail photos (react-image-lightbox) now fill the lightbox area like the feed viewer, instead of being shrunk to a narrow cached width.

Release Notes — v2.7.0

Sorry it's been a while! Life, work, bike racing, and genuinely trying to get to bed at a reasonable hour don't leave much PC time. But it's been a busy one:

What's new:

5 new activity types — more options for filtering what shows up in your feed.
Strava activity tags — filter activities by their tags.
Improved third-party embed filtering — more reliable hiding across feed re-renders, plus the ability to add your own custom embed filters.
Prevent Feed Video Autoplay — opt-in toggle to stop videos auto-playing as you scroll (especially useful on mobile). Tap to play manually as usual.
For the full change history, see the GitHub changelog.
