A humble suggestion to change how blobs work

My blob is robbed (robbed, I tell you!) of connections where small portions of the ride are not marked as roads. A few maybe should be, so it could be fixed if I figure out how to edit OSM, but all the marked breaks were genuinely connected on the rides.

It would be nice if there were either some tolerance for small gaps, or if it would look at the original GPS track and see that they really connect.

Yes, I spent over ten minutes on this for some dumb reason.

1 - Gravel (I think) road simply missing

2 - Internal park road missing, Johnson Sauk State Park

3 - Part of main park roadway not marked as achievable, Starved Rock State Park

4 - Park road/path not marked as achievable

5 - Went through a parking lot to see an attraction

Biggest Blob as Big Map view

It would be really cool to see one’s blob as their Big Map view. My map goes to my home county, but I ride a lot in the next county over and in the neighboring state, too. Idea is that it would resize the view as the blob grows. Thoughts?

Missouri Blob (connected Kansas City and St. Louis)

Missouri Blob

The new blob feature is awesome! I had a couple days off from work this week, so I used Amtrak to hit the last section of Katy Trail that I needed to connect Kansas City and St. Louis. I love seeing the connections made on the map. I do feel compelled to connect the small bits of Chicagoland that I've ridden now.

Does anyone have advice riding from St. Louis to Chicago or the other way around?

Hanoi, Vietnam blob on foot

I want to share my Hanoi blob with you guys. Ive been traveled to the US, some big EU cities. Compared to them, Hanoi streets are very different, many dead ends, many small streets that not even in the map, many streets with no roads for pedestrians, etc.. anyway im still working on this blob 💪💪💪

Leader board

Hello I’m new to the Wandrer app and I’m wondering how the leader board works. I do not show up and when I search my name nothing comes up. I’ve look in settings to see if I need to set something with sharing. Any advice would be appreciated.

Cleveland Blob

I did Lake Erie prior to Strava, I'd imagine I'd have a little bigger blob based on that! But here's cleveo to match the post from the other day (hey CK!)

Explorer Achievements in districts

Gibt es eine Möglichkeit auch die "Explorer Achievements" für Stadtbezirke einzublenden?

Für Gesamt-Hamburg sehe ich alle Achievements.

Hamburg ist allerdings unterteilt in Bezirke (im Beispielbild Altona) und diese beinhalten ebenfalls mehrere Stadtteile (in Altona z. B. Rissen, Sülldorf, Blankenese, etc).

Da ich häufig anhand der Bezirke plane wäre es für mich hilfreich zu sehen welche Stadtteile diese umfassen ohne auf der Karte jeden einzelnen Stadtteil anklicken zu müssen 😅

Feature request: Gap Finder

After checking out the Blob feature, which is AWESOME, I noticed that there are small gaps in my Wandrer map that my gps didn’t register correctly. The one in particular that I’m baffled by is on the Mt. Vernon Trail in Alexandria, Va. It’s only a quarter mile that Wandrer registered incorrectly across the highway. It’s my 10/03/23 activity.
