How does Hyundai Digital Key work?

Hyundai Digital Key employs Near Field Communication (NFC) technology to access certain vehicle operations. NFC is used for security purposes, as it requires a closer proximity between your smartphone and the system’s reader, preventing others from entering or starting your vehicle. So how does it work?

 

First, it’s important to note that Hyundai Digital Key is only compatible with Android devices and there is currently no version for iPhone users at this time. Once you’ve created your MyHyundai account and downloaded the Hyundai Digital Key app from the Google Play Store, you can begin using your smartphone for certain vehicle functions.

  • Unlock the Doors: Simply hold your smartphone up to the driver or passenger side door.
  • Start the Vehicle: Place your smartphone on the wireless charging pad, press the start button, and be on your way.
  • Driver Presets: Program the driver-seat and mirror position, climate controls, audio preferences, and more via the Hyundai Digital Key.
  • Shared Key: If a family member or friend has a compatible Android smartphone they will be able to use Hyundai Digital Key. The individual will need to create a MyHyundai account and download the free Hyundai Digital Key app, and then you can send them an invite via the app to receive their Shared Key. (Hyundai owners can have up to three Shared Keys.)

Hyundai Digital Key Card

What is a Hyundai key card? While there isn’t a Hyundai Digital Key for iPhone users at this time, the NFC Key Card is a wonderful alternative. This key card can be used in place of your smartphone to access the same vehicle operations. The NFC Key Card can fit in most wallets and is perfect for situations such as service visits, valet, and instances in which your Android phone has run out of battery.
