DriveModeDashboard - DMD

Q: What is DriveModeDashboard?

DMD is a brand for navigation, specializing in motorcycle products.
They develop thier own software, the DMD2 app, their own navigation devices powered by Android, handlebar remote controller to control the app without letting go of the handlebar, an OBD2 dongle to connect to your ECU for sensor data and a series of brackets to help you mount everything.

Q: What is the DMD2 App?

DMD2 is an Android app that can be run as a regular app or as your default home launcher.

It is aimed to transform any Android device into a dashboard for motorcycles, although it should work just as good nn any other vehicle. The special focus is Adventure and Off-Road.

The whole purpose of it is simplicity, minimize user interaction, number of clicks, swipes, simple dialogs and big buttons, only the required functions and options for riding. Because when you are on a motorcycle, riding, with your gloves on, having to play around with a touchscreen or having to go through lots of menus, with interfaces that were not done specifically for motorcycle use, it can become a nightmare.

DMD2 is built from the ground up to perfectly integrate handlebar controllers, enabling you to control most features from your handlebar!

DMD2 is divided by different sections, all of them accessible through a bottom menu. Some of this sections are totally free, others are paid plugins. You can check out all the different section bellow.
