Equilab/Hylofit experience?

I’m terrible with technology, but I am trying to get some data on my rides. I know many people use Equilab. I have it in my phone but my watch refuses to connect to it for some reason. Anyone else have this issue?

Has anyone tried the Hylofit? It provides data on the horse as well as the rider, but it’s expensive and I would have to swap the girth sensor out in between horses. I do think it would be nice to have an alarm for cardio limits on my older horses. Is it worth the hassle and expense?

I have no input except I did just download the Equilab app… I’ve been super unmotivated/depressed and haven’t checked on the horses… maybe I’ll get up and go try it out.

As as far as hylofit goes it looks amazing! I’m house broke and baby broke so can’t justify it. Reviews/demos look good. Interested in reviews from users on here.

Does fitbit/Apple Watch sync with the Equilab? Wasn’t aware. (Have yet to figure out if I want an Apple Watch or Fitbit, don’t know what would be better for riding)
