Nils Oudejans (ID: 0000005d4d473d66) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/07/2023 I'm a big fan of strava-map-switcher, because Strava is nice but the map they have chosen is possbily the most unclear map around there, no idea why they do it like that. Strava-map-switcher yersterday however stopped working for me. I already deleted the add in and reinstalled and restared laptop. The pop up is still not there. Did something change?

michael pelisek (ID: 000000d1a79cf73b) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/25/2023 Dávám 5* protože používám už dlouho k velké spokojenosti. Bohužel mi akorát poslední asi 2 měsíce přestaly fungovat mapy.cz, což je velká škoda. Je nějaká šance, aby to zas fungovalo? Díky

Karel Švec (ID: 0000007d8ff9d17b) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/27/2023 Skvělý doplněk, ale v poslední době nefungují správně mapové podklady z mapy.cz, pravděpodobně kvůli změně API. Oprava velmi vítána :-)

Krishna (ID: 00000022e284ed3e) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/06/2022 i'd give 1 million stars for this extension.. i was extremely annoyed at strava for not giving google map in the ride routes.. i had exported the gpx and imported it to google maps a couple of times but it was tedious process.. thanks for creating this wonderful extension.. i've starred the repo.. will definitely love to contribute to the codebase..
