Review: Strava's Gemini integration gives generic advice and misses data

Strava has rolled out a Google Gemini integration to U.S. subscribers, letting the chatbot answer training questions from activity history. A test found Gemini ignored heat and humidity, saw only activities from roughly summer 2026 onward, and offered generic coaching.

• The integration is rolling out to U.S. Strava subscribers and is optional and read-only
• Gemini initially missed 75–84°F heat that inflated heart rate on September runs
• Pagination limits meant it found one marathon since 2019 instead of at least eight
• Advice was generic, such as slowing easy runs by 45–90 seconds per mile
