Below are some of the configurations required on your smartphone for the correct operation of the Ducati Connect and Sygic Apps.
Activate Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and GPS on your smartphone.
Set the following permissions within the Ducati Connect App:
Note: On Apple devices, you are required to allow access to the GPS position “Always”.
Settings -> Privacy -> Location Services (Yes) -> Ducati Connect -> Always
To use the Ducati Connect App with iPhone, you are required to set the following configurations on your smartphone:
Settings -> Screen and brightness -> Auto lock -> Never
Settings -> Phone -> Incoming calls -> Banners
Bosch My Spin -> “Activated”
Menu -> Settings -> Bosch My Spin -> Activated
Menu -> Settings -> Sounds and notifications -> Audio settings -> Allow HFP -> Deactivated
Activate Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and GPS on your smartphone.
Install the Ducati Connect and Sygic GPS Navigator Apps (available on Apple store and Market place).
Check that there are blue icons on the instrument panel relating to: phone-motorcycle Bluetooth connection active, phone battery status and GSM network coverage. At this point, launch the Ducati Connect App on your smartphone, set the vehicle mode and wait for the Ducati Connect message on the instrument panel to turn white (when prompted, authorise Wi-Fi connection from your smartphone).
The connection to the USB socket is for battery charging only, the connection for mirroring is made via WI-FI. The smartphone can clearly be left connected so that it is powered.
Ducati has tested all the most popular and recent smartphones, however the operating systems and technological choices of smartphones are not under Ducati's control.
The instrument panel functions have been tested and validated with the main available smartphones (e.g. Samsung S10, Samsung S9, Oneplus 6, Huawei P9, iPhone X, iPhone XS, iPhone 8, etc.) and with operating systems higher than Android 9 and iOS13.
It is not possible to guarantee operation on all smartphones on the market and their software and firmware.
No, for 2 years the access to the Sygic App on your MTS is free of charge (the App is authorised when the phone is connected to the motorcycle).
Of course, the license to use the Apps is associated to the motorcycle and not to the single smartphone. Therefore, you can use a different phone, as long as you have installed the Apps correctly configured. The Sygic app will read the VIN number of the motorcycle when it connects to it and will enable the license.
Ducati Connect accesses your smartphone's music library, it does not connect to other Apps because they are currently not compatible with Bosch My Spin. The list of available Apps will be updated periodically.
No, only Sygic because other apps are not compatible with Bosch My Spin. Sygic has resident maps, it also works without network coverage and is approved by Bosch.
You can connect an external navigator, but it cannot be used via Ducati Connect.
The instrument panel functions have been tested and validated with Cardo Packtalk Bold (cod. 981018768) and Nolan B901X intercom (cod. 981071104).
It is however possible to associate and use other intercoms, although it is not possible to guarantee the operation of all the intercom devices available on the market.
