Tobias Stranover or Toby Stranovius (1684 – 1756) was a Romanian Transylvanian-born painter (1684 - after 1731).

Stranover was born in Sibiu but travelled to Germany, the Netherlands, and England, where he stayed. He is registered in Hamburg, Hermannstadt, Amsterdam and London. He became a follower of the bird painter Melchior d'Hondecoeter and presumably also Jakob Bogdany, whose daughter Elisabeth he married.

Stranover died in London.
