Doesn’t work

Doesn’t contact my designated person

I guess they are still underfunded

I tried two tests of this app and both failed to contact my designated person. I waited 5 minutes the first time and 10 minutes the second time.

The response from 2 years ago must hold true. Underfunding must be hampering the functionality of this app. I will be looking elsewhere.

Had high hopes.

Downloaded and proceeded to go through the system until I let it send an emergency alert to my contact person and they NEVER received the alert !!! Very upsetting.
Don’t waste your time. Download Huufe instead their system works better. Now here’s hoping I get a refund!!

Response from developer

Hi, Thanks for your feedback. We have had a few problems in the past with this and we were a bit underfunded to keep the app working, though recently we’ve done lots of updates fixing bugs that the app has had. Everything now works as it should. Sorry for the inconvenience and hope you will give us another shot. If you have any questions or are looking for a refund feel free to get in contact at info@horseridersos.com Hope this helps. Thanks, Henry Peace

Doesn't work in U.S.

Bought this app but it doesn't work in the U.S. After I purchased it I saw a note at the very bottom saying it only works in the UK. My bad for not reading all the way down but they should have made that clearer

If you have any questions or are looking for a refund feel free to get in contact at info@horseridersos.com Hope this helps. Thanks, Henry Peace

Great idea

Hope they get a USA version quick I could really use this app. Feel like a waste of money since I can't use it. Haven't found an equivalent yet.
