The Android and iPhone apps enable users to navigate the Equine Prohibited Substances database that has featured on the FEI website since April 2010. When a searchable term is entered, a short definition of the substance appears, accompanied by its FEI classification and common trade names. A feedback function with automatic email acknowledgement allows users to seek further advice or clarification if necessary.
Users will only need to download the app once, the online database will be automatically updated to incorporate new substances after annual reviews of the list take place.
The Equine Prohibited Substances List app is the FEI’s most recent mobile phone application for the equestrian community. An app was developed earlier this year for FEI Dressage Tests for Eventing, Dressage and Para-Dressage.
