That background looks oddly familiar 🧐

[@DesFit]

When in Amsterdam….

[@Dcrainmaker]

My licensing fees are reasonable...

[@mlegrand]

I’m definitely going to try to slide into your Strava DMs. I mean, look at that wood textured background. 😍

[@ActiveIdeas]

🤣🤣

[@takyiyakvsi]

Thanks for this update :) Perfect wrap-up of a new feature.

[@DesFit]

Very welcome!

[@YaroslavNoName]

new social network 😀

[@ActiveIdeas]

This is a game changer 🔥

[@corneliul]

You can actually add other athletes to existing groups, at least in my case 😊

[@MateHegyhati]

Hm... The owner of that background could introduce this feature in 90 seconds 😛 Oh wait, he couldn't 😀 Thanks for the update, and have fun! (Looking forward to the 2023 review video!)

[@DesFit]

Haha, yup, coming up!

[@bastianbijlsma]

Great to remind followers they haven’t yet provided any juicy kudo’s

[@cgarrett1974]

I just wanted dark mode...

[@tapio_m6861]

They were too busy thinking whether they could, that they didn't bother thinking whether they *should.*

[@DesFit]

I feel they could have actually done this a long time ago and took time to put thought into how to implement it so it would work for the people who would want to use it and make it easy to opt out for people who don’t.

[@ADVRaiderKTM]

Is this a subscriber-only feature? I don't see it on my Strava iOS app

[@ThatFlowState]

No, it looks like it's tied to an update of the Strava app. At least that's what I had to do before it showed up.

[@DesFit]

It’s a feature for all Strava athletes (mentioned in the video)

[@timcollins340]

Not available in UK yet. No update on the App Store.

[@Chris_PerthWA]

The cost is now getting concerning

[@vothry]

Let me guess...a paid feature where the cost per year is different from country to country...Thanks anyways and love the channel. Happy to feed the almighty algo

[@DesFit]

Nope, a free feature for all athletes (mentioned in the video)
