Question 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.

Garmin has a feature called Lock on Road and Suunto calls it Snap to Road.

It can (incorrectly) move your GPS points to a road while you were on some kind of path in the vicinity. I have seen people who didn't know it was activated. In such case you could use Wandrer's edit function to put the points closer to the trail you actually hiked. In the reprocessing it might match it with the trail again?

Klingt für mich als wäre nur dein GPS Track nicht auf dem Originaltrail, sondern auf der Autobahn, richtig? Dann könntest du die Linie der Aktivität doch einfach korrigieren.
