About Us

Numen Communications Inc. was formed in 1998 as a consulting company with expertise in educational technology and visual communication design.

As the iPhone, iPod Touch and the iTunes app store were launched last year, we became interested in small portable applications that could fill a niche need.

Tanya Heins, a principal in Numen, started developing apps to suit her 'horsey' lifestyle. Tanya started riding at 10 years old. As a teenager she competed in jumping and cross-country. Returning to riding Tanya’s been mostly interested in dressage, but also enjoys a good hack, just being with horses in the fields and trees.

Our initial Apps are EquiTempo, EquiList and EquiCalc.  In January 2010 we added FEI EquiTests - a series of Apps that help users learn and reference FEI dressage tests. We've published them for sale on iTunes to determine interest from the equestrian community.  Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to email and comment.  

There are number of ideas on the drawing board:

• EquiEvents is designed to keep track of shows or clinics.
• EquiInfo tracks general information about individual horses.

We look forward to your feedback, as we grow apps for our equine interests.
