Help & User Guide

A complete, step-by-step guide to everything Yard Board does — from the morning board to month-end invoicing. Tap any heading to expand it.

This is the full trainer's view. Inside the app the same guide is tailored to each person's role, so staff, owners, farriers and vets see only the parts that apply to them.

Welcome to Yard Board — a mobile-first app for running a racing yard from your phone. It works in any phone browser, but for the best experience add it to your home screen so it opens full-screen like a normal app.

  1. On iPhone/iPad (Safari): tap the Share button (the square with an up-arrow), scroll down, then tap Add to Home Screen.
  2. On Android (Chrome): tap the menu (top-right), then tap Install app or Add to Home screen.
  3. Open Yard Board from the new icon that appears on your home screen.

Move around the app using the tabs along the bottom of the screen. Which tabs you see depends on your role — the relevant sections of this guide explain yours.

The bell icon in the top-right corner shows your alerts. A red dot means you have unread notifications — tap the bell to read them.

Tip: Turn on push notifications (see the Notifications and Settings sections below) so you get alerts on your phone even when the app is closed.
