This one has been a source of frustration for many users who expected immediate integration or bundling benefits. Strava Premium costs $79.99 annually, and Runna charges $119.99 per year. If you pay for both, that's $200/year. Earlier this month, a combo deal was announced that knocks $50 off that price at $149.99 per year. You can buy the combined subscription from Strava here, or buy it through the Android or Apple app stores.
As a longtime Strava user, I was excited at the prospect of testing out Runna at sweet discount—instead, my only option is big lump sum upfront for an app I may or may not enjoy.
No more Strava training plans
Strava's training plans were in no way the primary selling point, but the principle of the thing still stings. Strava subscribers were paying for a service that included training plans. Now, mid-subscription cycle, Strava has decided you are no longer entitled to those plans.
The running communities in r/runna, r/running, and r/strava have been characteristically vocal about the acquisition when it comes to user experience. In addition to navigating the loss of Strava's training plans and the disappointing bundle costs, there are other little annoyances here and there. For instance, users are complaining about constant advertisements for Runna in the Strava app. Similarly, Runna now automatically sends an unlabeled bar chart of you lap splits to your Strava. (To turn this off, you click on Runna Profile > Connected apps and devices > Strava > Add image to synced workouts.) I'm also seeing a lot of feedback that the combined subscription is not syncing properly or otherwise requiring Strava support tickets.
What users should expect going forward
Outside of Strava's specific track record, we're living in time of subscription rot across the board, in which subscription services gradually strip away features while maintaining their prices. Without either company providing clarity on when meaningful integration will occur, it makes sense that users have concerns about whether Runna's unique features will be diluted or removed.
Better bundled subscription offerings
Potential expansion of Runna's technology to other sports, like cycling
Possible consolidation of apps into a single platform
