Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about building walkups, running Game Mode, and getting the most out of MyWalkup.
The App
What is MyWalkup?
MyWalkup is a mobile app that helps baseball and softball teams create and manage in-game walk-up announcements. Create your team, add players, pick songs, and play custom audio intros during games and events — with professional, AI-generated voicing.
What sports does MyWalkup support?
Baseball and softball. MyWalkup works for rec, travel/competitive, and school teams, from youth divisions all the way through college.
What is Game Mode?
Game Mode is your game-day screen. It shows your team's ordered lineup, and you can drag to reorder players on the fly. Tap a player and their walkup plays right on cue — a pre-game team intro is included to open the game before the first batter steps up.
What platforms is the app available on?
MyWalkup is available on both iOS and Android. Make sure you're on a recent operating system version, or the app may not be compatible.

Songs & Audio
How do walkup songs work?
Each player can have a custom walkup song that plays when they take the field. Pick a song from Apple Music or our free song library, choose the exact clip you want to play, and pair it with an AI-generated voice announcement.
Do I need an Apple Music subscription?
No. MyWalkup includes a free song library you can use without any subscription. If you have an Apple Music subscription, you can pull from the full Apple Music catalog for more song choices.
Does it work with Spotify or other music services?
No. At the moment, Spotify does not allow walkup introductions as part of its terms of service.
How does the AI announcement work?
Pick your team's announcer voice with tap-to-preview, then build the intro from a template with placeholders for the player's name, number, and team. If a name is tricky to pronounce, you can fix it by spelling it how it sounds.
Teams & Players
Can players manage their own walkup songs?
Yes. Players invited to join your team can select and customize their own walkup within the app. They just need a smartphone and a phone number.
How do player and manager invites work?
You send invites by text message, right from your own phone using your own messaging app — MyWalkup doesn't send these for you. Once a player accepts, they can manage their own walkup, or you can keep managing it for them.
Will MyWalkup send me text messages?
Only transactional messages: one-time verification codes to sign in to your account or verify a phone number change, and replies from our support team if you text us first — never marketing or promotional texts. See our SMS & Messaging policy for the full details.
Pro & Billing
What is MyWalkup Pro?
MyWalkup Pro is an optional subscription that unlocks automated AI voicing for unlimited players and teams, plus up to 5 saved walkups per player. It's billed monthly or annually, includes a free trial, and you can cancel anytime.
How many walkups can each player have?
Every player can save 1 walkup on the free tier. With MyWalkup Pro, that goes up to 5 saved walkups per player.
Who needs to be a Pro user for a team to have Pro access?
The team owner needs to be Pro — if so, the entire team is considered Pro, even if players or managers aren't upgraded. The person who created the team is the owner by default, but ownership can be transferred to a team manager.
How do I cancel my subscription?
Subscriptions are billed and managed through the App Store or Google Play, not inside the MyWalkup app. On iPhone: Settings → your name → Subscriptions → MyWalkup. On Android: open the Google Play Store app → your profile → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → MyWalkup.
Troubleshooting
Why are my walkups getting cut off on a Bluetooth speaker?
Certain Bluetooth speakers, including the JBL PartyBox, have firmware issues where the connection to your phone isn't maintained properly, cutting off part of the audio when it reconnects. Updating your speaker's firmware usually fixes this — see these JBL PartyBox firmware instructions.
JBL speaker not playing correctly?
The JBL PartyBox has a known issue that's resolved by updating it to the latest firmware. Updating is easy, but you'll need the JBL app — see these JBL PartyBox firmware instructions for the steps.
