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. FUNCTIONS Access the App with your Ducati account or create your profile to stay connected with the Ducati digital world. Add your picture (a picture/photo of you) and your nickname and immediately connect your bike to start travelling (your journey). You and your bike – every riding session you can: - Record your performance along the entire itinerary (route) (speed, bend angle, acceleration and other data mapped through the whole route, along with average maximum values and statistics) - Modify the parameters of the bike (load mode, riding mode etc..) and save different driving scenarios - Record the itinerary (GPS track, total km, driving hours, map) - View and check statistics about the bike and your activities IMPORTANT: You can track route and performance also without the connection with the bike recording a smaller set of data You and your travels – every riding session you can: - Save your itinerary, add a title, description, pictures and tags to enrich your travel diary and relieve it whenever you want - Share with your friends – in the App and on social media – all riding experience and saddle adventures - Choose an itinerary from the public ones and follow the track on the map 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. Turn by Turn is only available if the Ducati Multimedia System (DMS) has been installed and the Turn by Turn navigation license has been purchased (the license may be standard for some Ducati models). The new Turn by Turn navigation feature is available on DesertX, Diavel V4, Scrambler 2G, Streetfighter V2 & V4, and the new Panigale V2 & V4 and Monster V2. Check www.ducati.com to see if your model supports Turn by Turn. Instructions for use - For music playback, phone calls, and navigation instructions, we recommend using the Ducati Multimedia System. - For Turn By Turn navigation and route recording to work properly, we recommend: 1. not using your phone in energy-saving mode 2. downloading offline maps in advance 3. consulting the FAQ section of the Ducati website, under Apps -> Ducati Link - Continuous use of GPS location in the background may reduce battery life.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Ducati Link at 1.4 against Motoplay's 1.0. Ducati Link also leads on ratings volume (23 vs 1). Motoplay's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (12.0.0 vs 16.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
