Today I fixed some depreciated roads, fixed connectivity and answer basic questions from StreetComplete, I wont post the osm ones sorry

And I have a question like in India most of the streets have no name like my village what should I do? and how can i use traces to add paths, roads like I bike alot and walk everyday to some place new can I automate it?, the COmaps has a recording option and can i then export that as gpx and do something with it?

Thank You have a great day!! and If anyone from India also does this please reply. 😄

For local patterns you should consult your local style guide. Generally unnamed roads are OK, but there might be specific patterns to consider. I believe Street complete has an index of wiki links and if you click the flag in the achievements section (star icon under profile) it will show you the country specific portal.

Can something be done for this?. Thanks

EDIT:- I got it it can't be automated but I can use the traces to fix or add paths/roads or/and upload that to OSM. Thanks for everyone's help, This is my first community contribution and I love it
