FAQ
What horse riding metrics does RideTracker analyze?
RideTracker analyzes gaits (halt, walk, trot, canter), gait transitions, cadence (strides per minute), heart rate (with Apple Watch), distance, route, and calories burned. It provides detailed breakdowns of time spent in each gait and heart rate by gait.
Can I use RideTracker without an Apple Watch?
Yes, you can record rides directly on your iPhone. The app will detect gaits, cadence, speed, distance, and route. The iPhone recording can be saved to Apple Health or used as a backup to your Watch data.
How does RideTracker track my rides?
RideTracker uses motion sensors on your Apple Watch or iPhone to record your ride data automatically. You start the ride on your Watch and can put your phone away, with analysis happening after the session without needing to tag anything mid-ride.
Does RideTracker have ads?
No, RideTracker does not contain advertisements. The core features are free and ad-free, with optional premium features available through a subscription.
What are the subscription options for RideTracker+?
RideTracker+ offers two subscription plans: a monthly plan for $2.99 and an annual plan for $14.99. These plans unlock access to your ride history.
How does RideTracker handle data for multiple horses?
You can assign each ride to a specific horse. RideTracker keeps track of ride counts, saddle time, and trends separately for each horse, preventing the averaging of data from different animals.
Is RideTracker compatible with Apple Health?
Yes, rides recorded by RideTracker are written to Apple Health as equestrian workouts, including heart rate and active energy data. Health integration is optional, as all ride data is stored within the app.
How often is RideTracker updated?
The latest version of RideTracker is 1.6, which was last updated on October 11, 2026. Updates typically include new features, bug fixes, and performance improvements.
