About

Stable Schedule

Features
Read full description

Stable Schedule is the app for running a horse yard together — whether that's a family with three ponies or a busy livery yard. Everyone on the yard sees the same live information, so nothing gets fed twice and nothing gets forgotten. EVERYTHING TODAY, ON ONE SCREEN Open the app and see exactly what today looks like: every horse's feeds and riding sessions with big tick boxes, who's in and who's turned out, what needs ordering, and the weather over your yard — including when rain's due and a frost warning for rug nights. TICK IT OFF AS A TEAM Feeds, rides and medication are ticked off with one tap — and every tick shows who did it and when. No more "did anyone do the evening feed?" texts. HEALTH THAT LOOKS AFTER ITSELF Put the farrier, worming, vaccinations and dentist in each horse's diary once and set them to repeat. When you mark a visit done, the next one books itself. Upcoming appointments show on the home screen with days-to-go, and a morning notification tells everyone what's coming up. TRACK EVERY RIDE Start the ride tracker and pop your phone in your pocket: live timer, distance, speed and your route drawn on the map. Every ride is saved to the horse's history, and it ticks off that day's riding session automatically. THE FULL RECORD, ALWAYS TO HAND Notes with photos, weight and condition tracking with trend charts, and a complete health history for every horse — filterable by vet, farrier, worming and more. Print any horse's full health passport for the vet, or if they're ever sold. STOCK, SORTED Track feed, hay, bedding and supplies with quantities. Tap minus as you use things up — hit low stock and it flags itself for ordering, right on the home screen shopping list. YARD CHAT A private chat for your yard, with a channel for each horse. Hay delivery's arrived? Someone needs bringing in before five? It's all in one place, not lost in group texts. BUILT FOR TEAMS Create your yard, share the invite code, and everyone's in — each person with their own login, all seeing the same live picture. Your yard's data is private to your yard, stored securely in the EU, with no adverts and no tracking. Stable Schedule — the whole yard, in your pocket.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PostNL at none against Stable Schedule's 1. PostNL also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Stable Schedule's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
