Back during the Google I/O 2021 keynote, the company announced that digital car key support would be arriving on select Android devices.
Thanks to the power offered by Ultra Wideband chips, your phone and vehicle can communicate with one another while ditching the physical key in the process.
Despite being announced as part of Android 12, the feature was not yet available, at least until now.
In a blog post detailing a total of ten different features that are coming to "all" Android users, Google slipped in confirmation that digital car key support is available.
There are a few catches to be aware of, however, as the feature is currently limited to the Pixel 6 and Galaxy S21 series of devices.
One much larger limitation is that you must be using specific BMW models to take advantage of it.
What makes digital car key support interesting is that thanks to the embedded UWB chip in the Pixel 6 Pro, you won't even have to take your phone out of your pocket.
Once your phone is in the proximity of your car, it will automatically unlock.
