Setting up a Blast Softball account involves creating your profile, registering your sensor, and adding your bat. Here’s the full process for both iOS and Android.
Create a New Account on iOS
- Open the Blast Softball app and tap Create New Account.
- Select I’m a Player or I’m a Coach. (The Personal Swing Trainer sensor only supports Player/Parent/Athlete accounts. Coach or Academy Owner accounts can add players, but each player requires an active Blast Connect subscription. Coach Mode is iOS-only.)
- Select your level of play — Youth, Middle School, High School JV, High School Varsity, College (All Divisions), Minor League, Professional, or Other. This customizes your performance goals.
- Fill in your Full Name, Email, Confirm Email, and Password (8+ characters, with letters and a number), then tap Create Account.
- On the welcome screen, complete Basic Details, Register Sensor, and Add Bat — or tap Skip in the top right to finish later.
- To register your sensor, scan the serial bar on the back of the sensor or type in the Serial (Top & Bottom) number, then face the Blast logo toward the ground for 2 seconds and toward the sky for 2 seconds, repeating until a Sensor Connected message appears.
- To add your bat, fill in Brand, Model, Nickname, Length, and Weight, then tap Add New Bat. A short video shows how to attach your sensor to your bat.
