After a [full UI revamp](https://www.testingcatalog.com/strava-got-a-huge-ui-redesign-in-order-to-prepare-for-future-feature-releases/), Strava delivered what it was promising - 2 new features came out introducing Group Challenges and Personalised Segments.

Called ["the biggest app update of the year 2021"](https://www.strava.com/biggest-app-update-2021?from%5Fapp=true&ref=testingcatalog.com) Strava sends out push notifications to its users to highlight these new features out there. 

📲 If you click on this [link](https://www.strava.com/biggest-app-update-2021?from%5Fapp=true&ref=testingcatalog.com) from your Android device it can deep link you directly to the new section of the app. 

### Craft your own challenges

Users finally got a way to create challenges for the app. Without premium, you can only create 3 group challenges for free. There you can select a type of challenge, the goal and the name. After creation, it will be possible to invite your friends into it or share it online.

Personalised segments bring you a new way to filter and select segments that are right for you. On the new map view, it is easier to browse them with a help of a bottom list slider.
