Your distance-capable EX30 key tag has NFC functionality. So, if your distance-capable key has a low or discharged battery, it can be used in the same way as a key card.
If a distance-capable EX30 key tag is in close proximity to the parked car for a longer period of time, the connection between the key tag and the car will go into standby mode. The reason behind this is to avoid unauthorised access to the car and to preserve battery lifetime.
Apple CarPlay is a wireless feature that lets you integrate an iPhone with your Volvo. Apple CarPlay gives you access to iPhone apps, such as navigation and music, and lets you make calls and receive messages.
The EX30 is prepared for the digital key technology and the functionality will be delivered later via over-the-air (OTA) software updates. The digital key will allow you to lock, unlock and drive your car via your iPhone or compatible Android device. Other future smart services will also be included, such as inviting friends and family to use your car by sharing a digital key. Until the digital key functionality is available, you will be able to use other keys.
