Private per activity in CityStrides only?

I think CityStrides “per activity” privacy mimicks Strava or Garmin’s privacy setting. But is there not a way to make my CityStrides default to private (avoid lifemap updates) while retaining public visibility in Strava?

Then I’d switch them on one-by-one in CityStrides, manually?

Yeah, “per activity” takes the privacy setting in your tracking service.

You will appear in all lists and leaderboards. Each activity will default to the privacy setting in your tracking service. You can change an activity’s privacy setting in CityStrides by editing it.

Let me know if I’m misunderstanding. It sounds like you want your activities to be public in Strava and private in CityStrides. You should be able to accomplish this in Privacy Settings by setting yourself to “Just Me”.

I do not want my life map private. I just don’t want my 4 daily dog walks or quick jogs around my house showing up on my life map. So I want my CityStrides to have a per activity default to private, but then I’ll switch them “on” one by one, if they are real or new runs I want to appear on my lifemap. (All while leaving my Strava entirely public.)
