Instead of focusing on indoor workouts, Strava goes for a more traditional approach. You get a giant ‘start button on your Apple Watch as you blaze about the place with either your bike or on foot. 

Once you sync your iPhone with your Apple Watch you can use the app to track your activity without carrying your iPhone. Once done your Apple Watch will sync data automatically with your iPhone. It also allows you to join your friends and share your activity in a group or team with them.
