Geofencing is a terrible mobile battery drain
I realize tracking takes some battery life. But I already run two GPS trackers on my phone (Google Maps tracks location, also I have GPSLogger. They both use a very small amount of battery. Eufy is using a lot more.

Using Strava app on android for 7 hour ride.
Or you could use a more efficient GPS logging app. eg GPS Logger. https://gpslogger.app/ It has settings you can adjust to save power, eg reduce the frequency of recording points. Then you can export a GPX file afterwards to upload to Strava.

Should I track my hikes with strava or komoot? hiking in vietnam rn
Haven't used strava or komoot and my answer probably is too late, sorry. But I personally used "GPSLogger for Android" on longer trips. Works pretty well, you have several options to tweak the performance and therefore your battery life.

Beeline Velo
My method, FWIW, is to attach a small Bluetooth device to the bike (I have a speaker, but anything you can power on or off works). I have an Android phone with Tasker and GPSLogger, and I have a Tasker profile which starts logging when it connects to the specific Bluetooth device, and stops logging when it disconnect. It's a bit of a janky setup but it does record my rides pretty consistently without having to actually handle my phone.
