Here's hoping that BMW get off their asses and implement CarKey into the Connected iOS app.
Fingers crossed... After all, they were the first to implement wireless Apple CarPlay! |

My guess is that BMW will implement this CarKey functionality relatively quickly, as I agree that while their technology isn't always perfect, but they tend to be early adopters. |

Not all android phones. I believe only the Samsung galaxy phones for now? Doesn’t work with my OP6T.

Digital Key finally coming to iPhones!
"Apple released the first beta of iOS 13.4 today, and it apparently has an unannounced feature that might let you unlock, lock, and start your car with your iPhone or Apple Watch" https://www.theverge.com/2020/2/5/21...l-key-ios-13-4 |

Yup, Digital Key only works on certain Samsung Galaxy phones. I have a LG G8 ThinQ for work and, with it being a higher-end Android phone, you'd think Digital Key would work. Alas, BMW Connected says it's incompatible. Very strange rationale IMHO.

Digital Key isn't compatible with my Note 10. Maybe is carrier dependent.

Will this render the Connected App obsolete? My iPhone is much more reliable than the Connected App, and I really only use the app to remote start the car when it's too far away for a remote connection.
