Sharing and community

How can I help improve walking in my area?

Short answer

Three ways: tell Support about map problems and missing coverage where you walk, share what you know on Community, or use Trail Scout — the companion app for people willing to walk a route and document it properly.

The easy way

Report the specific things you notice. A junction Walkable routes badly, a path that has closed, an area with no offline map. Each is small, and each is the kind of thing that only somebody who walks there would know.

The involved way

Trail Scout is a separate app for contributors. A scout walks a route, records it properly with checkpoints and photographs, and submits it. Another scout walks it independently to confirm it. Only then does a human decide whether it publishes.
