I use Osmand for trails in the woods, it is decently accurate in my country and also has a ton of other features

I'm also a happy osmand+ user, but once i got lost in the middle of a field / bush. I'm sure there was a trail once, but not safe to follow. Said bush was not very dense, so we though multiple times: Ok, this could be the way. Or that path?
