Can You Use Your Phone As a Key Fob?

Have you ever wondered if your phone can be used as a key fob? Well, you’re not alone! Many people are curious about whether their phone can work like a key fob. In this article, we’ll explore different ways to make that happen and how it can make your life easier.

Using the iPhone Wallet App for Digital Keys

If you already use digital keys, you can use the Wallet app on your iPhone. You can store your digital keys for your home, car, or your hotel room. With just a tap of your iPhone or Apple Watch, you can unlock doors or start your car*. The iPhone will automatically present the right key when you arrive at your door or vehicle, giving you access using Near Field Communication (NFC).

If you don’t have digital keys at FobToronto and MiniFob, we can help by copying your RFID key fob into a convenient sticker format.

Then, attach it to your phone, and forget about carrying your keys around all day long.

And that’s just one of the options we offer. While we’re focusing on sticker formats here to address the question of using your phone as a key fob, we have a variety of other copy options available.

*Adding Car Keys to Your Wallet App

If your vehicle supports it, you can also add your car key to the Wallet app on your iPhone or Apple Watch. Just follow the instructions from your vehicle’s app, and you’ll be good to go. *Not all cars can do this, so it’s a good idea to double-check with your dealership or manufacturer first.
