Hi everyone

I want to download an app to track my hacks when I'm out on my own, so I can be found should my horse and I part company! Any recommendations?

Thanks :)

Not specifically for hacking but we use Life360. Originally it was so I could track my daughter walking to school!

Not an app but attach a label/tag to saddle with a phone number on. Someone who will answer the phone and knows where the horse lives! Otherwise someone could find a loose horse and have no idea how to trace the rider or who they are

I've got Equilab but haven't tried it yet!

What3words is good! If you end up upside down in a hedge, the app will tell you three words which can pinpoint your exact location. Emergency services use it.

I’ve also just read about Equilab!

Off to investigate Equilab.

wheresmyliveship what did you think of it?

i use Life360 to stalk my daughter when she's out hacking. it tells me how fast she is going and is really accurate.
