Has anyone been able to get digital key working with an android device?
The instructions from BMW's shows there is an option for Digital key in the My BMW app. I don't see that option. The article below shows it should work on 2021 and 2022 models. I'm assuming that feature hasn't been pushed out yet? https://www.bmwblog.com/2021/05/18/g...s-to-bmw-cars/ |

It used to work a few years ago, then BMW pulled the option which was annoying. I'm guessing it'll be back soon. It works on my work iPhone 13 Pro Max but I haven't gotten my Google Pixel 6 Pro yet to test

I used to be an apple fan boy until I got my first Android phone which was a Galaxy s8. Then bought the latest at the time Apple 12 Pro, and hated it. Got so used to the Android that I sold my phone after 3 months of use and bought the s21. |

To set it up you should have gotten an email from BMW when you first bought the car it has a code in it to activate the digital key, not sure how necessary that is. |

I still haven't received the update yet for Android 12. Which S21 phone do you have, base or ultra? |

Android Car Key has yet to be released publicly. That plus a Pixel 6 Pro with UltraWideBand radio should be able to used as a Digital Key. Otherwise its NFC for other phones.
It was announced back in May for Google I/O showing it working specifically with a BMW. It should be any day now.
