Howrse is free to download; Jumpy Horse Show Jumping costs $9.99 up front. Howrse sells 22 one-off in-app purchases and Jumpy Horse Show Jumping sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Howrse holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Howrse has 3.5K ratings behind it against 526, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 35% of Howrse's written reviews are positive against 52% of Jumpy Horse Show Jumping's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Howrse ships an update every 4 months, Jumpy Horse Show Jumping every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 19, 2026 respectively.
