I use OsmAnd+ for off-road travel navigation. The amount of trails and accuracy of navigation is so good!
Organic Maps is really underrated IMHO. I use it a lot for walking around town as well as on hikes.
To err is human. Try to notice missing points of interest and add notes for things you’d like to have added to the map.
FYI: OsmAnd+ has the ability to record GPX tracks and upload them to OSM. This is incredibly useful for creating accurate maps and add just satellite imagery offsets. As a mapper, it would really if a hiking trail has some GPS data so that the nodes can be aligned and improve the accuracy of the map.

Thanks for this information.
I’m familiar with the GPX recording feature.
How can I upload them to OSM? I didn’t see that info in the link you provided.
You can use another OsmAnd plugin OSM-editing to do that. It’s in-built, but you do need to activate it. https://www.osmand.net/docs/user/plugins/osm-editing#upload-gps-track
Also you could share the track internally in the phone OS to file browser to save it as named file on the phone memory. https://www.osmand.net/docs/user/personal/tracks/#export-track. Then upload it via osm website. https://www.openstreetmap.org/traces has generic upload gps track feature.
Thanks! I’ll keep that in mind
