Keep a riding diary in Hopoti to follow your progress: write an entry after a lesson or your own ride, rate how it went and set goals for next time.
Before you start
The riding diary is part of Hopoti Plus. See Start, change or cancel Hopoti Plus.
Add a diary entry after a lesson
Open a past lesson you booked in Hopoti, from your home page or My calendar, and add a diary entry from it.
Rate the lesson, your own riding and the horse's performance.
Add anything else you want to remember: distance, gaits, a picture, what you did, the feedback you got and your goals.
Save the entry.
The lesson type, start time, duration and the horse you rode are filled in for you from the booking. The entry then shows in your calendar.
Add your own ride
For a ride you didn't book in Hopoti, such as training with your coach or a ride on your own horse, select Add new on My calendar, choose Riding diary and the kind of ride, for example Riding, Coaching or Competition. Fill in the time, duration and horse yourself, add your ratings and notes, and save the entry.
Share your riding diary
You can share your diary entries with friends, your coach or anyone else. In Account settings, choose who can see the diary entries you share. To keep one entry to yourself, hide it in the entry itself.
Diary entries your friends share with you show in your feed, and you can like and comment on them. See Add friends and favourites, and choose your feed.
Connect your Polar watch
Connect Polar Flow to Hopoti to bring the rides from your Polar watch into your Hopoti calendar and riding diary.
Open the menu in the top-right corner and select Account settings.
Under Integrations, open Polar Sports Watches and log in with your Polar Flow account.
In Polar, set the training type of your rides to horseback riding.
Each time you sync a ride to the Polar Flow app, it comes to your Hopoti calendar with its duration, distance, GPS route, heart rate and calories. A ride at the same time as a Hopoti lesson is linked to that lesson automatically. Make a diary entry from the Polar training to get the heart rate, duration and distance filled in.
Only Polar watches can be connected to the riding diary.
If your Polar rides don't show up
Check these in order:
Your Hopoti Plus is active.
Polar Flow is connected under Account settings > Integrations.
The ride's training type in Polar is horseback riding.
You've synced the ride to the Polar Flow app.
If the ride still doesn't show, message our team in the chat with the ride's date and time.
