Robot voice

I think that they intentionally leave a horrible robot voice in the intro, so you have to pay to get rid of it. Otherwise it is good

Response from developer

Hey dgrensky23, before you write us off, try the voice called Minor League Mike! He’s free. Go to Settings > Voices, tap Minor League Mike, and follow the one-time download prompt (it’s an Apple Accessibility voice, already on your phone or a quick download). Night and day difference. The premium voices use AI voice generation which costs me real money per announcement, so I can’t offer those for free, but Minor League Mike is genuinely great. And if you prefer no intro voice at all, you can disable announcements in Settings too. Hope that helps!

Fun

Nice way to add some fun for the parents and kids

Response from developer

Really appreciate the kind words and taking the time to leave a review! Have a great season out there! ⚾

Great App!

This is so awesome, I wish this was around when I played!

Response from developer

Chris, this made our day - thank you! That nostalgia is exactly what inspired this app. Hope it gives the kids on your team some memories they’ll carry for a long time too. If you ever want to share feedback or have ideas, reach out anytime at support@walkuphype.com. ⚾

Love this!

So much easier than my last app! Love the built in playlists as well!

Response from developer

Thanks so much - this made my day! Glad the playlists are hitting, that's one of my favorite features too (and they may also be my new soundtrack to running errands with my kids around town 😂) More good stuff coming this season!

Won’t Work

I have it connected and tried using Apple Music already downloaded on my phone and it won’t play the songs.

Response from developer

Hey Amtuze, thanks for the details and I'm sorry to hear this hasn't been working for you! Walk-Up Hype requires an active Apple Music subscription to play songs, not just music downloaded to your device. If your subscription lapsed or you're on a different plan, that would explain why the songs won't play. If you do have an active apple music subscription and it's still not working, please email us at support@walkuphype.com and I'll personally keep working with you until you're up and running! I read every support email personally and would love the chance to help you out. -Daniel

Like this one

Enjoyed adding the nicknames to the lineup.

Response from developer

Big E Rogers, this one made our day! Nicknames are half the fun - there’s nothing like hearing the PA announcer belt out “now batting… The Destroyer” for a nine-year-old. Thanks for the review!

Great music, easy simple to use

Grandson likes using the app as well as his team mates and said “it’s so cool” I think from what he said it’s easier to use.

Response from developer

"It's so cool" from a kid at the ballpark is the highest compliment we could ask for. Tell your grandson we said good luck this season! 💪

Best of these apps

I’ve tried several of these apps for fun and they were all pretty clunky. This one was really easy to use and did everything I needed it to do. Don’t waste time on the others - start with this one.

Response from developer

Thank you so much - this made our day! We built Walk-Up Hype to be the app we wished existed at the ballpark, so hearing that it just works without a learning curve means everything. Good luck this season!

Grandad review

My grand son plays and it’s really fascinating how they now get to pick their music from this app. When I was I kid our Walk up music was the coach saying. “Your up” 😂

Response from developer

Ha! “You’re up” - truly a classic PA system. 😄 So glad your grandson gets to have a real stadium moment. Thanks for sharing that - it means a lot to know families are enjoying it together!

Not just for baseball

This app is amazing! While it’s clearly perfect for baseball (or tee ball in my daughter’s case), I’ve been using it for other reasons too. Want to make an awesome entrance at a party? Use this app to hype it up. Just knocked out my wife’s honey-do list and want to showboat? Use this app to hype it up. Want to spice up a boring work meeting? Use this app to hype it up!

Response from developer

This is exactly the energy we built this app for (and honestly, the honey-do list walk-up might be our proudest use case yet). Thanks for the five stars and for finding uses we never even thought of. 🔥⚾

Next level

This has been such a fun addition to our first grade baseball team. I used to think it was silly and not worth all the coordination, but then we got this app and it’s been so fun and given the boys confidence heading up to the plate. It’s been really easy to use. Even when we make last-minute changes to the lineup and batting order, I have a mom on the sideline that does a great job of keeping it up and running. Thanks for making it fun and easy!!

Response from developer

This is exactly why we built it - thank you! There’s something special about a little kid striding up to the plate with their song playing. So glad it’s been easy enough to hand off to a sideline mom and just run. Good luck to your boys this season! ⚾

Adding music sucks

I have a subscription to Apple Music. I have downloaded the songs on Apple Music to ensure smooth transition. Every time I attempt to preview or go into game mode to ensure it’s functioning properly but it won’t play the music, just announce the player.

Response from developer

Hi peer6 — this isn't how it's supposed to work, and I'd love the chance to work with you to get this sorted. Can you please email support@walkuphype.com so I can dig in? A few details that would help: iOS version, whether you're prompted for Apple Music access when you open the app, and whether the songs you added came from Apple Music search inside the app or from your own library. I read every support email myself and I'll get you up and running. — Daniel, Walk-Up Hype

Everything and more!

Everything you could want in a Walk-Up song app, this app has! So well thought out, and better than its major competitor because announcer voices are FREE! Clean, modern graphics, tells you who’s up to bat, on deck, and in the hole. So happy this was created, and made my job as team DJ a million times easier!

Response from developer

Thank you so much! 🎙️⚾ We wanted coaches to just be able to download and go - no counting players or worrying about cost per kid. We’re just getting started, so stay tuned!

Even better than my old one

This app is very user friendly, has an amazing FREE version and my team loves the QR code sharing capabilities! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Response from developer

Thank you for the kind words! 🔥⚾ The QR sharing was one of our favorite features to build - getting a whole roster loaded in seconds just feels like magic. So glad your team is loving it!
