Just an update that is not good news. I was speaking with a very knowledgeable Genius rep and he shared with me that BMW has quietly discontinued this service with no plans at the moment of pursuing it. Those phones that it is still working on will gradually stop working as OTA updates are pushed out.

Hey guys, apologies for dredging up an old thread but thought it might be worthwhile for some of you (and anyone googling) to hear.
I can confirm that DK 1.0 supports the Galaxy S20 (at least it supports the S20+ 5G). Just had my partner’s car set up with it today on her very last week of June 2020 built F40. It took a full uninstall of the BMW Connected app and to be with the BMW genius and their computer to get it to work. But it does now! As a side note, her DK expiry date is 31 December 2021. |

PBJ,
Can you please explain, "DK 1.0 supports the Galaxy S20"? I had understood that BMW digital key would no support Samsund phones (Android) but instead if you wanted digital key you would need a compatible Apple device. |

Here is what my dealer said:
The ability for the digital key to work with Android auto will be a software update that has not been launched yet. I do realize that the online publication states that it's available but the update has not been launched as of yet. |

That's DK 1.5, which applies to vehicles from built from July 2020 onwards. DK 1.0 is what I was mentioning above and still supports Samsung

The question remains. Has anyone gotten the Samsung S20 to work with digital key? If you did what did you do? |

Can you explain what steps you went through to set it up? When i picked up my car i only got an email about activating an iphone digital key...but no mentions about android. Did you have to go to a dealership to activate it? Thank you on advance! |

If you unsure, go to Connected Drive portal and check vehicle's features. If you see "Digital Key for Samsung" your vehicle is compatible with Samsung. Previously I had Samsung S9 and Digital Key worked well. After upgrade to S20 I experienced problems described above (DK stuck with 'Removed' status). I asked BMW's tech support by email to make a full reset of DK function. After reset I reactivated DK with my dealership and now it works well. Don't tell the tech support you have S20, tell them you have S10 ) They still think S20 is not supported ) Last edited by maxxuss; 12-13-2020 at 09:33 PM.. |

You can check it at CD portal -> 'Remote Cockpit' -> 'Status' -> 'Services' panel -> 'Digital Key for Samsung (Booked until...)' if already booked or bundled. Or CD portal->'Store'->'Digital Key for Samsung' tile if it's possible to be booked. |
