Recommended smartphone specifications

To ensure that Equilab can track rides as accurately and best as possible, we recommend using a mobile device that has the following traits.

• A gyroscope sensor — which helps improve the accuracy of gait detection by more precisely measuring the motion of your device and therefore your horse. 
• At least 8GB of RAM (even more is better) — which ensures Equilab can effectively process location and motion data without your device accidentally shutting down the app.
• Is less than 5 years old — the phone's GPS transmitters and sensors wear out over time, especially if the device has been dropped a few times. Equilab will, of course, work on older devices — the performance may just be limited.

Additionally, Equilab has observed that the following smartphone brands and models have lower quality sensors and/or batteries, which often results in them having diminished tracking performance with Equilab:

• Xiaomi 13T devices (sensor issue that inhibits accurate gait tracking)
  
• Oppo devices (frequently shuts down Equilab, interrupting tracking)
  
• Realme devices (frequently shuts down Equilab, interrupting tracking)
