Best Farrier1.12.2 - App Store

Best Farrier is a scheduling and invoicing app for farriers, built for mobile devices, that helps you run your business efficiently on the go. All your business information is in one place, easily and conveniently accessible wherever you are.

Features include:

- Manage all your client and horse data.

- Keep track of your invoices, payments, sales taxes/VAT, expenses and mileage.

- Manage your schedule with a full weekly view calendar.

- Keep a detailed horse history timeline, auto-generated from your invoices. You can also add your own notes and pictures to the horse history.

- Text or e-mail invoices and appointment reminders to your clients.

- Generate business reports such as account history, gross income report or sales tax/VAT summaries, and view, print or e-mail them right from your phone.

- Built with mobile devices in mind, so it's easy to use, requires minimal typing.

- Works anywhere without a phone connection or wifi. When you have connection, the app uses cloud backup to keep your data safe if you lose your device.

Internationalization/language support:

- Best Farrier is available in American English, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese.
- Provides PARTIAL support for German and Dutch (only invoices, e-mails and text messages to clients are translated), with more languages to be added soon.
- Can use your local currency symbol and formatting (using your device's selected language) or you can select it from a comprehensive list of currencies.

The Best Farrier app requires an account, which you can get registering for a free 30-day trial in the app. After the free trial you will be automatically billed the monthly subscription (plus tax if applicable), unless you cancel your subscription, which you can do at any time going to Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions. If you cancel your subscription, the app will still work and your existing data will be fully accessible, although the app won't accept any new data.
