Abstract
Equestrian sports are gaining more popularity, but there are not enough professional
trainers to reach everybody. The problem of equestrians finding proper trainers or
trainers at all is rising. As equestrians often train alone, they experience problems
they do not know how to solve themselves. To solve the problem, Pocket Trainer, a
mobile application in Estonian, was developed to assist equestrians with problems they
experience during training. The user can read helpful information in Estonian about
solving the most common problems, look up different jumping and pole work exercises,
and calculate the appropriate distances for setting up exercises. A certified trainer
evaluated the information included in the application and an experienced equestrian
evaluated the application from a user’s perspective. Overall the tester was satisfied with
the app and the information it offers.
