BMW Digital Key
Principle
BMW Digital Key allows the vehicle to be un-
locked and locked, as well as started, with a
compatible smartphone.
General information
BMW Digital Key availability and functionality
depend on vehicle equipment and national-
market version.
BMW Digital Key can be used with a compat-
ible smartphone or other compatible mobile
devices.
To unlock and start a vehicle with a compatible
smartphone, this function must be offered by
the smartphone manufacturer. The My BMW
app can be used to check if the smartphone
and vehicle are compatible and which func-
tions are supported.
A BMW ID or a driver profile with individual
settings can be assigned to a digital key.
When using a smartphone as a digital key, it is
helpful to carry the deactivated Key Card in the
vehicle. In situations where the vehicle is to be
given to another person, they can be given the
Key Card instead of the smartphone. To do so,
the Key Card must be activated via iDrive.
