STRV keeps setup short so you can start training and fill in the finer details later.
1. Create your account
Open STRV, choose Create Account, and enter your name, email address, and password. Use an email address you can access: STRV may ask you to verify it before the account is fully active.
If sign-in does not complete, check the email address for typing errors, confirm you have an internet connection, and use Forgot Password instead of creating a second account.
2. Complete the setup questions
Choose the options that match your training goals and preferred units. STRV uses these choices to configure the app; you can change them later from Profile → Settings.
Apple Health is optional. If you enable it, iOS will show the data types STRV requests. You can approve individual permissions and change them later in the Health app or iOS Settings.
3. Log your first workout
From Home, use the workout action to start a blank session or choose a saved workout. Add exercises, record each set, and tap Finish when the session is complete. Review the summary before saving.
STRV keeps workout data on your device and syncs signed-in data to your account. If your connection drops, keep the app installed and allow it to sync when you are online again.
4. Add your first meal
Open Nutrition, choose a meal, and search for a food. Packaged foods can also be scanned by barcode. Check the serving size and nutrition values before saving, particularly for community or external food records.
Your first-week checklist
- Review your preferred weight, height, distance, and clock units.
- Complete at least one workout from start to finish.
- Confirm your calorie and macro targets before relying on daily totals.
- Review notification categories and only enable the alerts you want.
- Connect Apple Health or Strava only if you plan to use those integrations.
- Check Profile → Subscription to see your current access level before purchasing.
