Horse Side Vet Guide User Reviews

Top reviews

Great app and great vet that created it.

Practical and useful app even for vets such as myself. I have had this app for 6 months and recently had the privilege of meeting the creator, Dr. Thal. His commitment to horse health both in his daily work at his horse hospital and in constantly adding helpful info to the app is remarkable. I highly recommend Horse Side Vet Guide to anyone interested in the well-being of horses.

Money well spent!!

I am so impressed with this app. It has an amazing amount of content. I highly recommend this to all horse owners to have on their phones. With so much app garbage on the market, rest assured this one is pure quality.

A wealth of information!

It's totally worth the cost! I've used this app hundreds of times. The search function works incredibly well making it easy to search for terms, symptoms, and changes you've noticed with your horse. The app is constantly updated with new information.

Highly recommended for anyone that is looking for a pocket horse care application.

Thanks for the update!

I have always loved this app - great images and videos and simple to navigate. It was a bit sluggish, but now I can zip around and look at the info with ease. Thanks!

Please add photos!!

It's very very helpful in the sense that it is extremely specific! You can learn so much too! And the price is great for what it can teach you! Every horse owner should have this app! The only thing is that it's a bit lagging and glitchy. Please fix the bugs. **Would be 100 times better with picture examples!!

Waste of my money

I've been really disappointed in this app. With all the great reviews I assumed it was worth buying. So far it freezes, is extremely slow, and the information it gives is beginning horse owner level. Doesn't work on an iPad so you're stuck trying to read on an iPhone screen. I have several books with more advanced info and it's quicker than waiting for the app to respond. Maybe would be helpful for a first time horse owner.

Response from developer

Hi there and thank you for your feedback. The issue you mention has been fixed long ago - functionality issues are troubling to us and we've tackled them successfully. Sometimes it just takes a bit of time to solve them. Regarding content: HSVG is a constantly growing database of information. We have yet to finish all of the content, but we do prioritize content-creation based on common concerns and user requests. More complex and esoteric information remains to be written. Best wishes - Kristin Thal of HSVG (P.S. If you didn't seek a refund back in 2015 you still have access to the app. I suggest that you re-download it now when you have a good strong Internet connection - it should not be so sluggish!)

Very well done

I don't often take the time to review an app; but this one is packed with great information. Easy to understand and is going to be a great asset to keeping my herd a little safer!

Great App but slow

Super app with tons of great features and information but holy smokes it is slow. Still, totally worth it.

Nice handy guide

Has some easy ways to see real time what you need or need to do for your equine. Even searching for questions on equine health, a must have for equine owners.

Very helpful and full of useful information. Well worth it! Can save you and your horse. Info on what to do (and not to do) in any medical situation, what info to prepare for the vet, with detailed explanations and user friendly tabs. Up to date information with references. Clear and concise, easy read. Great tool for any horse owner!
