Laminitis App. Anyone got it??

[Archie73]

If so do you think it works?

I didn't know there was one!

I didn't know there was one either! off to look...

I dont have it but my trimmer has been involved with developing it .
Interestly my horse was footy on our horrible gravelly drive on Monday .
Trimmer said app had the risk very high over the weekend I am going to ask him more next time he's here.

Just downloaded it to see what it was all about and apparently the laminitis risk where I am could not be higher! At the very end of the scale.
Not very exciting app but potentially quite a useful one... will see if it actually changes

I've had it for a while now, not sure how accurate it is.

 

[Black_Horse_White]

Just looked at mine too and it says it at high risk

 

[maggiesmum]

I use it most days, I find it pretty useful as risk levels are more complex than whether the sun is shining or not and I'd rather err on the side of caution.

 

[Erin]

Yep. You do have to use a bit of common sense with it as obviously it can't be 100% accurate but its very useful tool!

 

[Rhandir]

I have it too, not sure about the accuracy but it does at least give you a warning that your horses may be at risk on certain days.

 

[tallyho!]

It should be high... It's mid-summer and we have had THE most horrendous amounts of rain! Followed by scorching hot sun.... Lol

Could do with a fly app too...

 

[Archie73]

Well mine seems to be highest in humid cloudy weather at the moment not in the bright extra hot after wet days so am trying to establish its logic!

I have just got it & am monitoring it: interestingly, my horse was very uncomfortable 24 hours after it registered high risk. Low risk today & he was more comfortable. I think it could be really helpful.

I have it but find it struggles to get a fixed gps and then it tells me my internet connection has failed..Which it hasn't.When it works it is useful.
