About this app

Ducati Link App: your journey, your emotions, your Ducati.
With the new Ducati Link App you can experience and enjoy your Ducati even more completely.
Thanks to the Ducati Multimedia System you can connect your mobile phone to the motorbikes via Bluetooth and thanks to the App you will be able to set the parameters of your Ducati in order to improve comfort and riding style, record your itineraries and your saddle performance data and always be updated on the interval schedule of maintenance of your bike. Get immediately into a community of friends with whom you can share experiences, trips, events and goals achieved thanks to Ducati Link.

If you do not own a motorcycle with the Ducati Multimedia System you can still use the App with the possibility of recording a reduced data set but still accessing the other features.
Caution (warning): continuous use of the GPS signal can have a significant impact on the battery life of the mobile phone.

- Record the itinerary (total km, driving hours, map)

IMPORTANT: You can track route and performance also without the connection with the bike recording a smaller set of data

- Save your itinerary, add a title, description, pictures and tags to enrich your travel diary and relieve it whenever you want

Turn-by-Turn navigation
This feature allows you to display the navigation directions on the dashboard, showing the route turn by turn and giving additional route information.
Note: This function is only available if the Ducati Multimedia System has been installed and the Turn-by-Turn navigation license has been enabled. The new Turn by Turn navigation feature is available on DesertX, Diavel V4, Scrambler 2G and Streetfighter V4.

Ratings and reviews

2018 Multistrada 1260S. Works a treat!! Connected to the bike, changed settings on the phone and uploaded via bluetooth to the bike. Much easier than fiddling on the bike. Haven't tried the other stuff on there but this was amazing enough and really impressed. Interface is easy with pictures and layman terms for simpletons like me. Raises and lowers the bike, smoothen out the throttle response and all that. Keep up the good work and hope you add more bikes so more owners can enjoy it!

The idea is good but the execution is quite poor. With some work it could be a good app. I cannot delete an itinerary, I cannot exit a new itinerary without saving. I cannot view other itinerary as an '' unexpected error occurred" for every itinerary. And this is only a handful of issues I have come across. As it is now it is more or less unusable. Shame on you for releasing a poorly tested app. Back to the work bench.

App does not seem to be very stable. Issues I faced so far: although device is connected I could not manage to record a trip. I did it once and that was the last. Today while Android 13: although my phone is connected with the motorcycle, app keeps notify that I need to get connected to the motorcycle. General issues with music. I need to start music from my phone. Could not start from motorcycle controls. I do not know if app or motor require any update to support Android 13.
