90-Day History Limit: The Habitify - Strava integration only supports syncing data from the last 90 days. Any activities recorded on Strava prior to this window will not be imported into Habitify.
One-Way Sync: Data only syncs from Strava to Habitify. Logging a habit in Habitify will not create an activity in Strava.
No Manual Logging: Once a habit is linked to Strava, the manual check-in button is disabled. The habit will only complete when a matching activity is uploaded to Strava.
