How much do horse apps really cost?
Horse app prices in Germany range from €0 to about €11 per month. Happie Horse is the cheapest option at €3.75/month and includes an AI chatbot, but it offers no emergency detection or financial overview. Equilab costs around €11/month and focuses on GPS tracking and riding stats — it has no health guidance at all. horse+ is free for riders, but is primarily aimed at stable operators. ManeMap sits in the middle at €7.99/month, but it is the only app that combines AI health assistance, financial overview, emergency detection, and seasonal care in one app — with a 7-day free trial on the monthly plan (annual plan: 30 days free).
The apps in detail
Happie Horse
Happie Horse is aimed at horse owners in Germany and offers health tracking, 300+ training exercises, and an AI chatbot. The focus is on care, symptom tracking, and training — at an affordable price of €3.75 per month. However, it lacks emergency detection, financial overviews, and dedicated onboarding for first-time horse owners.
Equilab
Equilab is the world’s most widely used equestrian app, with more than 1 million users. Its focus is clearly on GPS tracking, gait analysis, and riding statistics. Equilab does not offer any features for horse health, expenses, or feeding — and the German translation is limited to the user interface, not the content.
horse+
horse+ is the leading stable management app in the DACH region, with more than 400 stables and 30,000 riders on board. Stable operators pay, while riders use the app free of charge. For individual horse owners without a horse+-partner stable, the app offers very little — no health tracking, no AI, and no financial overview.
ManeMap
ManeMap brings together what other apps split across 3–4 different tools: AI-powered health guidance with context (weather + profile + training), a financial overview for each horse, 84 expert articles, and emergency detection — all in German. Built for first-time horse owners and part-boarders who want more clarity and confidence in everyday stable life.
