The email makes no sense.
"Pairing sensors crashes the app if you don't use any sensors"
We recently discovered that pairing Bluetooth heart rate monitors and power meters directly with the app is causing Strava to crash for millions of athletes — most of whom don’t even use these kinds of sensors.

The pairing is causes crashes for 'other' users?
ie. pairing from the app churns some api and they can't time it out because it's gotta take x seconds to pair blah blah and this load isn't sustainable on their kit which ends up locking up for other users. I dunno, all I can think of is some kind of timeout or deadlocking problem they can't work a way around, if that is what their email means?
I read this a few weeks ago but forgot to mention it here. I seem to remember that this only applies to new users and existing users shouldn't be affected.
edit - just read up on the updated. Nope, looks like it'll affect all users...
