What does Dressage Calling do?
It turns a dressage test you create into clear spoken guidance. Use Rehearsal to step through the test visually and memorise it away from the arena, or use Live calling for guidance while you ride.
How do I build a test?
From the test list, create a new test and choose Edit. Draw each route on the arena, confirm the suggested movement, then add any details such as direction, diameter or a target letter. The arena diagram updates as you build.
How do I start Live calling?
Open your test, choose Start Calling, and follow the short on-screen setup. Keep your phone secure in a pocket or holder, then ride your test as normal. The first spoken instruction confirms that calling has begun.
Troubleshooting
Calling did not begin
Stop the session and begin again, following the setup prompts from the start. Make sure your phone is secure and that you can hear the app before you move off. If the problem repeats, contact us with your phone model and Android version.
Calling stopped unexpectedly
Stop the session and begin again from the opening setup. If this happens repeatedly, please contact us with your phone model and Android version.
Cues seem to fire at the wrong time
Keep your phone secure in a consistent position and make sure it cannot move freely in a pocket. If a timing issue is repeatable, stop the session and let us know the test, movement and phone model so we can investigate.
No sound / cues aren't speaking
Check your phone's media volume (not ringer volume) and that headphones or speaker are connected. Check Settings → Voice in the app for your selected voice.
