If using your iPhone as your car's key seems like the future, you haven't been living in the present. There are a number of car brands that support digital keys in general, some of which have included the option on all models released since 2020. Apple's Wallet app supports the feature, and has for about five years now, but adoption has been relatively slow—although it's soon to pick up.
If your car supports car keys through the Wallet app on iPhone or Apple Watch, you'll be able to control your vehicle in three different ways—depending on the model. Some cars let you lock, unlock, and start your car with "passive entry": As you approach your car with your device, it will lock; once inside, you can start it; and as you leave your car with your device, it locks.
Other cars support a "proximity" version of this feature instead. In that case, you hold up your device to a sensor on the door to lock or unlock it. Then, you hold your device to a key reader to start the car.
Finally, there's the remote option, which lets you lock, unlock, or start your car from the Wallet app itself.
You can learn more about how to set up the feature from our guide here.
Cars that already support car keys in Apple Wallet
Apple doesn't make it easy to find official stats on the cars that support Wallet's car key feature at this time. Where you'll find that info is in Apple's list of CarPlay-compatible cars. Apple says there are "more than 800 models to choose from," but that's just as far as CarPlay is concerned. Cars that support Wallet's car keys have a key icon next to their name, which requires you to scroll through the entire list of 800+ cars to identify them all.
