On the morning of June 1, Apple was preparing to start supporting digital car keys in its wallet app for two new car brands: Hyundai and BYD.
This feature was also available before, supporting BMW vehicles.allows users to use iPhone or the digital key in your Apple Watch “Wallet” to lock, unlock and start the vehicle,And Ultra Wideband support in iOS 15 can even automatically lock and unlock supported cars when the user is near, without waking the device.
In 2020, BMW became the first manufacturer to introduce digital car keys in Wallet, and two months ago, Apple began listing several Kia and Genesis models to support the feature.
Apple recently added Hyundai and BYD entries to its Apple Pay profile.
BYD, a brand familiar to domestic users, has been trying to expand into other countries, recently announcing it would switch to exclusively selling pure electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles.
We haven’t heard which specific models from either brand will support digital car keys on the iPhone and Apple Watch, but maybe they’ll announce it themselves.
