Volte records your ride and remembers it. Not just time and distance, but what you actually rode: walk, trot, canter, and tölt and pace for gaited horses, recognised minute by minute. And how much of it on the left rein and on the right. WITH OR WITHOUT A WATCH Start on your Apple Watch and leave the iPhone in your pocket, or use the iPhone alone. If both record, they become one ride. AFTER THE RIDE Your gait split and transitions, your route on the map, speed per gait, the balance between left and right rein, your heart rate from Apple Health and, with a chest strap, your horse's pulse next to it. Paths to the arena and halts are left out of the rein balance. If you switch from a hack to jumping mid-ride, change the discipline right there and every section is analysed on its own. GAIT DETECTION THAT KNOWS YOUR HORSE Mark a few minutes yourself during a ride and Volte learns how your horse in particular moves, then trains a model of its own for it, right on your iPhone. A guided training ride tells you when to ride which gait. YOUR HORSE OVER TIME Trends show how speed, heart rate, rein balance and gaits change across weeks, how regularly you work and how long you warm up. Per horse, not averaged over all of them. Missing a chart? Ask for it in your own words, for example "trot speed per week", and Volte builds it from your rides. You decide which charts you see and in which order. AT YOUR SIDE DURING THE RIDE Seat corrections remind you of what you are working on, for example "sit up tall" every three minutes in trot: as a voice cue, a tone or a vibration, and briefly as text on the watch. The session planner builds a session from real exercises, matched to your goal, your time and your level, with a warm-up and a cool-down, and tells you what comes next. NOTES THAT CONNECT Speak a short note after the ride. Volte writes it down and connects patterns across many rides, always with the quote from your own note beside it. YOUR DATA Everything is yours. You decide whether your rides are backed up to the cloud, and you can delete your account and all its data inside the app at any time. Health data is never used for advertising, AI features run on servers in the EU. VOLTE PREMIUM Recording with gaits, route and heart rate, your ride log for the last two weeks and the share card stay free. Volte Premium keeps your entire history and opens up trends, your own charts, the gait timeline, speed and rein per gait, AI insights, voice notes and seat corrections without a monthly limit. Try it free for 14 days, then an auto-renewable subscription. Volte replaces neither trainer nor vet. All analyses and suggestions are for information and inspiration.
