A little more work needed

It would be nice if you could add videos and at-bats after the fact to sessions. It would also be nice if all your work (regardless of being in a session or not) would sync with the Blast Connect. Just because it’s not in a session doesn’t mean I had “an easy week”. I’m still swinging and working, sometimes I forget to put it in a session. Maybe for the next update?

Wish I had tried a different brand

First I bought into the sensor ... $150, then I bought into the year subscription to BlastSoftball /software $60. NOW ... all I can say is, “Why the heck does this thing cost so much!?!” BlastSoftball itself crashes more than a 2 year old playing Mario cart. In fact, it’s the worst app I own. Logging into your account online doesn’t offer the videos you’ve stored in BlastSoftball . And when saving 3D videos of a swing to share, it tends to distort the video into a glitchy fast forward version of ... something totally worthless. The analytics sold it, the rudimentary technology that goes with it is why I suggest you try something else first. Sounded much better than it actually is!

Break super easily, do not recommend

The concept is a great idea. Having something to track your swings and the amount of swings sounds like something that would be useful and something that could improve my swing. However, in the span of 1 year I have had 2 blastmotions break and am currently on my third. This is a pain, especially since over half the time it doesn’t work. Every week I find that I hit off the tee for an hour but it only counts under 20. For what it does and what it costs I do not recommend going through all the trouble of uploading swings constantly and receiving inaccurate results.

Damage

Not a cheaply priced product, but it appears to be a cheaply made product.... Several team sensors, including my daughters had broken less than 6 months into owning it.. Have already had to replace the rubber holder and now the sensor. So far spent $275 on this product and we’re not even 6 months into owning it... Hopefully our organization walks away from this or they make a better product... Or have a better warranty. No reason to have to buy two sensors in a 6 month period.

Needs some work

Needs to be updated or something. Ball flight is good for a couple of rounds. The when you open it app crashes every time

Crash and feel burned

App keeps crashing. Can not even get single session done. Last session at the cage I restarted BlastSoftball no less than a half dozen times. Very frustrating.


By


Ugh

The Blast device is quite nice and the data it offers can be helpful. BlastSoftball is awful. It often doesn't load. When it does, it's glacial. Ball flight NEVER works. Ever. And every single update crashes it and requires a reinstallation.

So the device is good. BlastSoftball is painful.

Waste of money

What a waste of $150 just to get the thing, then another $60 a year for a subscription to the site. Over-rated & over charged junk. BlastSoftball barely works. You are better off just spending a few bucks & going to a trained hitting instructor.


By


Poor support

So far day 3 of problems. The phone number for support is only face paintings. No one answers or returns call. Several emails and no real attempt by them to resolve. We are trialing for team. Be aware support is less than helpful


By


Ridiculous

Absolutely ridiculous to force all users to watch a video with zero meaning or importance. Trying to upload swings and can’t because of an u skippable video that restarts every-time BlastSoftball is left. Makes me want to delete, horrible.


By


Garbage

Swings don’t appear for download. Sensor connected all green but when you try to download the swings they are not there. Junk.
