Supported Applications Matrix & Controller Compatibility

Modified on Thu, 30 Jul at 3:39 PM

Carpe Iter handlebar controllers (Terrain Command, Adventure Control, BMW Control, and Caretta BMW Wonderwheel integration) operate as dedicated physical interfaces for motorcycle navigation. When running Next-Gen Hub (NGH), your controller automatically detects which navigation or roadbook app is on your screen and dynamically switches to the correct button layout instantly.

How Auto-Profiling Works: NGH uses Android foreground detection to switch controller layouts in the background. To learn how to configure background permissions or build custom profiles for unlisted apps, see our guide on Carpe Iter Controllers Autoprofiling Explained.

Global Controller Profile

When you are on your device home screen, using an unlisted application, or operating an app without a dedicated Auto-Profile, your controller defaults to the Global Profile. This profile handles core functions for GPS navigation apps, such as standard map directional panning, zooming, map centering and access to the HUD.

To learn more about how the Global Profile operates or how to customize its default key bindings, see our guide on How to configure / customize remote controller.

Prerequisites for Automatic Switching

To ensure NGH switches profiles automatically when opening any of the applications listed above:

  1. Ensure Next-Gen Hub (NGH) is updated to the latest version via Google Play Store.
  2. Connect your Carpe Iter controller via Bluetooth (or Caretta dock).
  3. Open NGH → Settings → Controller.
  4. Enable Automatic Profile Switching.
  5. Grant NGH the required Accessibility / Usage Access permissions in Android system settings when prompted. This allows NGH to detect which app is running on screen.

Unlisted / Custom Applications

If your favorite navigation app is not listed in the compatibility matrix above:

  • Global Profile Fallback: Your controller will safely default to your Global Controller Profile, allowing standard directional panning and media controls.
  • Create a Custom Profile: You can create a custom app profile inside NGH → Settings → Controller → App Profiles, bind custom 102-key hotkeys, and pair it to launch whenever your app opens.
  • Request Native Integration: We continuously expand native profile support. Post a request with the application name on our community forum at tribe.carpe-iter.com.
