If you'd like to contribute the OpenStreetMap community, I suggest OSMTracker. https://github.com/labexp/osmtracker-android/wiki

It keeps your traces local until you choose to share them. Uploading GPS traces helps with quality control in terms of road speeds and discovering trails.

There are a few OSM apps that make it easy to share tracks. I use OsmAnd, it allows easy recording, viewing, and uploading to OSM. OSMTracker probably has better battery life, maybe.
