Most of us consult at least one or more mobile applications every day to manage our daily life. It is therefore quite natural that applications around the horse were born for all horse-riding enthusiasts. Horse racing apps, horse riding apps, or even exercise apps for your horse… The choice is vast! Here are some free horse apps that will help you in your riding practice.
Build your training program
The Equisense application analyzes each work session via the connected sensor (Equisense Motion, for those who have it). It also allows you to receive advice on how to adapt your workouts to your goals. The application regularly offers new exercises for all disciplines (obstacles, flat, dressage, outdoor). But the application is not only dedicated to horses since it also offers exercises for bodybuilding and saddling for riders.
The EKWO application also allows you to create training schedules and even share them with other riders. The application also offers a news feed related to the horse world and the disciplines that interest you. The advantage of EKWO is also to give you the possibility to follow your riding routes in real time. You will be able to upload geo-localized photos, get a summary of your ride, know your average speed, the distance covered and your route. The basic application is free, but you must have to pay to access certain features.
For hiking enthusiasts, the HorseGlobe app is ideal for finding trails for horseback riding. It also allows you to record your routes, analyze your speed and your stopwatch. The app takes you to the starting point of the trail using GPS, and brings you back if you get lost, even without a network. You can also share your performance with your friends in one click via Facebook. In short, this horse-riding application will offer you very practical features to optimize your rides.
The social network for enthusiasts
PegaseBuzz is a mobile application dedicated to the horse world. You can receive alerts on topics that interest you and understand the latest trends in the field. The application also lists job offers related to the horse world, anywhere in the world and in any field.
HippSide is THE social network for all horse lovers. You can exchange information, upload photos, share rides, create public or private groups, etc. Everyone can share their passion with other horse lovers. A real plus for this application which is above all simple to use and user-friendly.
For those who love competitions
If you regularly go to competitions, the Horse Republic mobile application is made for you! The concept of the app is to evaluate equestrian competitions. You will be able to get the opinions of all the regulars of the competition grounds on the competitions that interest you.
Manage the daily life of your horse
FabulHorse allows you to keep track of your horse’s maintenance, care and upcoming competitions. You can share your horse’s health information with veterinarians, but also with other professionals (farriers, osteopaths, dentists, etc.). This application also allows you to follow in real time the budget dedicated to your horse, but also to share the profile of your horse with your coach. From a security point of view, the application has designed a one-click alert system that will send a message to an emergency number that you will have predefined, indicating your location. Ideal for solo rides! This free horse app allows you to link your phone to a connected camera, perfect if you want to keep an eye on your pet (for example if he is unwell and you can’t get to the stable right away).
Manage your horse’s diet
To define the ideal ration for your horse, several brands of horse feed have developed an interface allowing you to visualize its physiological needs. They will also allow you to consult by geolocation the list of sales points near you. In addition, these applications will allow you to “weigh” your horse online or to share its agenda with yours, such as reminders for deworming, the farrier’s visit, etc. This is the example of Royal Horse which offers a free mobile application to personalize your horse’s ration.
Simplify the transportation of your horse
If carpooling already exists to transport people, a carpooling application for horses was missing. Hippn’Go is the answer to this lack! It offers to put individuals in contact with each other to make trips by van or truck. Individuals agree to share the costs, so it becomes quite profitable for everyone, rather than having vans or trucks travel for a single horse. Hippn’Go also provides an insurance that allows each horse to be insured and / or assisted during the transport (in case of breakdown for example).
