Walk
Four beats
Each hoof lands on its own. The warm-up, the cool-down and the long way home.
Up to about 9 km/h
For iPhone and Apple Watch
Every ride, every stride.
Equee records your ride and works out, as you go, when your horse is walking, trotting, cantering or galloping, and every time you jump. Each ride lands in a logbook for the horse you rode.
How it works
Four gaits, recognised as you ride.
Equee reads the rhythm of the ride from your phone's motion sensors and checks it against your GPS speed, many times a second, while the phone stays in your pocket.
Trot
Two beats
Diagonal pairs of legs move together, in the bouncy rhythm you post to.
About 7 to 20 km/h
Canter
Three beats and a lift
Three footfalls, then a moment when all four hooves leave the ground.
About 14 to 36 km/h
Gallop
Four beats, full stretch
The fastest gait. Equee separates it from a big canter by rhythm and speed.
Over about 30 km/h
Jumps are counted from the lift off and the landing. Every horse moves differently, so Equee learns each horse's stride over its first rides and keeps that per horse.
What's inside
Made for riders, not runners.
Most fitness apps treat a ride like a slow jog. Equee is built around the horse: its gaits, its jumps, and its own record of every ride.
While you ride
Know the gait without looking.
Start a ride and put the phone away. Equee shows the current gait, how the ride splits between walk, trot and canter, and the numbers that matter.
- Current gait with a confidence hint when the rhythm is unclear
- Distance, speed, climb and a live jump count
- Keeps recording with the phone locked in your pocket
- Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island
- Auto pause when you stop to chat at the gate
Your horses
A logbook for every horse.
Add your horses once and every ride is filed under the one you rode. See their week at a glance: rides, saddle time and how the gaits added up.
- Profiles with breed, sex, age, coat colour, photo and height in hands or cm
- This week's gait mix and saddle time, per horse
- Streaks and goals to keep the schooling going
- No horse today? Ride without one; everything still works
After the ride
Every ride, replayed.
Open any ride to see where you went and how you rode it: the route on the map, the gait breakdown, and the detail behind it.
- Route map and gait breakdown with every transition
- Saved to Apple Health as an equestrian workout
- Heart rate zones with an Apple WatchPRO
- Splits and an elevation profilePRO
- Share cards, and GPX export that can hide your stablePRO
Over the season
Watch the progress add up.
Your history keeps every ride with its gait ribbon and jump count, so a month of schooling or a season of hacking is easy to read back.
- Totals for distance, saddle time, speed and pace, by month or all time
- Jump counts on the rides that had them
- Personal records and progress trendsPRO
- Your whole history, not just the last 7 daysPRO

Questions
Things riders ask first.
Where should I carry my phone?
Close to your body. A breeches thigh pocket gives the clearest signal; an upper arm band or a belt clip at your hip also work well. A loose jacket pocket or a saddle bag makes gaits harder to read.
How accurate is gait detection?
It's worked out from the rhythm of the movement and your GPS speed, entirely on the phone, and it improves over the first few rides as Equee learns each horse's stride. When the rhythm is unclear, for example during a transition, Equee says so rather than guessing. Treat the figures as good estimates, not measurements.
Why does Equee ask for location access "Always"?
So a ride keeps recording when your phone is locked in your pocket. Equee only uses your location while a ride is running. You can choose "While Using the App" instead, but the route may have gaps when the screen is off.
Do I need an Apple Watch?
No. Equee works with just your iPhone. An Apple Watch adds ride metrics on your wrist and heart rate for your rides, which the heart rate zones in Pro are built on.
Are my rides backed up?
Only if you turn on iCloud sync in Settings. It's off by default and uses your own private iCloud account. Health data is never synced to iCloud; Apple Health keeps its own copy of your workouts.
Which languages does Equee speak?
English, German, Spanish, French and Polish, in metric or imperial units, with horse heights in hands or centimetres.
How do I cancel or restore Equee Pro?
Subscriptions are managed by Apple: on your iPhone open Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions, and choose Equee. To restore Pro on a new phone, open the Pro screen and tap Restore Purchases with the same Apple ID. A lifetime purchase never renews. More answers on the support page.
Saddle up.
Equee is coming soon to the App Store for iPhone and Apple Watch. Free to download, no account needed.
