While surfing the web for information is easy enough, downloading an app creates an immediate shortcut to a useful resource of your choice. These types of apps are easy to use, they’re generally condensed down to feature only the most important bits of information, and they come in handy when we’re in need of a quick piece of information. The fact that these informative apps can be housed on the same smartphone devices we use to share tweets and access betting websites like Tab Com Au is remarkable really, especially when assessing the horse-related apps that are out there in 2022. In fact, horse apps are hugely beneficial for both the rider and the horse. Some options might help with training, for example, while others specialise in keeping both the horse and the rider safe when riding in a rural setting. The options are extensive, though. Let’s take a look at five of the best of them below.

What3Words

Despite What3Words being utilised in other areas away from horse riding, it’s still incredibly useful for horse-related activities, especially if they involve going on long rides in new locations. Thanks to What3Words’ fantastic location tools, you’ll never get lost. The app works by turning on your GPS location, then, from there, you’re given a three-word address that can be accessed by anyone with immediate access to an internet connection. An app that can be extremely beneficial in a variety of scenarios, What3Words is a fantastic product.

Equilab Equestrian Tracker

Enabling you to track everything from the metrics of your horse to even being able to communicate with other riders, the Equilab Equestrian Tracker app is a favoured application for many horse lovers. The app also enables riders to plan a specific route, as well as helping riders to plan a suitable schedule. Perhaps best of all, though, is that the app tracks the metrics of your horse with every move it makes, enabling you to monitor everything closely.

Horse Side Vet Guide

Offering users with an extensive dive into a variety of important equestrian information, the Horse Side Vet Guide app is one of the most popular horse-related apps around. Caring for a horse can be tough at times after all, making this particular option a potential lifesaver. While it isn’t necessarily a better option than visiting a vet, it can help in times of need, with information on selection of different health issues. Much of the information is showcased in illustrations or video format too, making it a clear way to gain everything you need around your horse’s care.

Thankfully, football fans aren’t the only ones who can enjoy a fantasy football type offering  as this equestrian equivalent is being downloaded regularly.

Then, from there, you can create a league with friends and see who comes out on top at the end of the eventing season.
