Syncing Strava and Spotify with TrackTunes is easy and takes just 2 minutes:

1. Visit TrackTunes.app and click "Get Started"
2. Connect your Strava account by clicking the "Connect with Strava" button and authorizing TrackTunes
3. Connect your Spotify account by clicking "Connect with Spotify" and authorizing TrackTunes
4. That's it! TrackTunes will automatically sync your Strava activities with your Spotify listening history

Once connected, every time you complete a Strava activity while listening to Spotify, TrackTunes will automatically add your playlist to your activity description.

Strava doesn't have a built-in Spotify integration, but TrackTunes connects the two services seamlessly. When you link Strava to Spotify through TrackTunes, you can:

• See your workout soundtrack: TrackTunes automatically adds the songs you listened to during each activity directly to your Strava activity description
• Share with friends: Your Strava followers can see what music powered your workout
• Track performance by song: Analyze which songs help you achieve your best times and paces
• Build better playlists: Use your activity data to create custom playlists optimized for your workouts

TrackTunes provides the Strava-Spotify connection that athletes have been looking for!

Yes! TrackTunes offers a free trial that includes your first 15 activities. This gives you plenty of time to experience the full sync functionality.

After your 15-activity trial, supporters get unlimited activity updates and additional features for just $20 per year. See the Pricing page for details.

Unfortunately, TrackTunes currently only supports Spotify. Here's why:

• Apple Music: Apple Music's API doesn't provide timestamps for when songs are played, making it impossible to accurately match songs with your Strava activities.
• SoundCloud: SoundCloud's Terms of Service prohibit commercial use of their API.
• Other Services: Most other streaming services either don't provide public APIs or have similar technical limitations.

Spotify is currently the only major streaming service that provides both listening history data and precise timestamps through their API.

While TrackTunes automatically syncs your activities, you can also trigger a manual sync:

1. Go to your History page
2. Click the "Sync Music to Activity" button
3. TrackTunes will immediately attempt to sync your Spotify listening history to the activity

Music played offline on Garmin watches, Apple Watches, or other wearables doesn't appear in Spotify's listening history until your device syncs with the Spotify app on your phone.

To ensure your music shows up:

1. After your workout, open the Spotify app on both your phone and watch
2. Wait for your watch to sync its offline playback data to Spotify (You'll see the music in the Recents section in the Spotify app)
3. Upload your activity to Strava

If you end your Strava activity before the watch syncs to Spotify, the music data won't be available for TrackTunes to capture automatically.

There are several reasons why tracks might be missing:

• Spotify's 50 track limit: Spotify's API only returns the 50 most recently played tracks. At an average song length of ~3 minutes, this covers about 2.5 hours of activity. For longer activities, only the most recent 50 tracks will be synced.
• Skipped songs: Spotify only gives TrackTunes access to songs you played, not ones you skipped.
• Excluded playlists: Songs from playlists set to "Exclude from my taste profile" won't appear.
• Offline devices: Music from watches/wearables doesn't sync until your device connects to Spotify on your phone.
• Podcasts: Spotify doesn't provide an API for podcast episodes, so they aren't included.

If you think there's another issue, please contact support@tracktunes.app.

By default, TrackTunes only syncs activities that are shared with "Everyone" or "Followers" on Strava.

However, you can enable TrackTunes to work with private "Only You" activities by going to your Profile page and enabling the additional permission with Strava.

You have full control over what appears in your Strava activities:

• Edit individual activities: Strava descriptions are fully editable—just edit your activity and remove the music.
• Disable automatic updates: In your TrackTunes settings, you can disable Strava description updates entirely. Your music data will still be processed for playlist building and analysis, but won't be added to Strava.

TrackTunes is a web application that works great on mobile browsers. You can add it to your home screen for an app-like experience:

• On iOS: Tap the Share button (square with arrow), then "Add to Home Screen"
• On Android: Tap the menu (three dots), then "Add to Home Screen" or "Install App"

TrackTunes only accesses your Strava activities and Spotify listening history to match songs with your workouts. I don't share your data with third parties. See the Privacy Policy for full details.

TrackTunes only updates the description field of your Strava activities to add the songs you listened to during your workout. TrackTunes doesn't modify any other data about your activities.

Yes! You can fully disconnect your Spotify account or connect a different one:

1. Go to your Profile page
2. Click "Disconnect"
3. You can then connect a different Spotify account if desired

This is useful if you've switched Spotify accounts or want to use a different account for your workouts.

You have several options for managing your account:

• Delete your TrackTunes account: Go to Settings and delete your account. This removes all your data from TrackTunes.
• Revoke access from Strava: Go to your Strava Apps settings and revoke TrackTunes access.
• Revoke access from Spotify: Go to your Spotify Apps settings and remove TrackTunes access.
