Forgetting your key fob doesn't have to mean changing your plans. Cadillac Digital Key lets compatible smartphones function as your vehicle key, making it easy to unlock, start, and even share access to your Cadillac without carrying a traditional key fob. Fields Cadillac St. Augustine explains how it works and why drivers love the convenience.

How Cadillac Digital Key Works

After setup, Cadillac Digital Key securely stores a digital vehicle key in your compatible Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. Your compatible smartphone or smartwatch then communicates securely with the vehicle, allowing it to function much like a traditional key fob. You can unlock the doors, lock the vehicle, and start the engine without taking your device out of your pocket or bag, making everyday access quicker and more convenient.

Passive Proximity Access

One of the most convenient features of Cadillac Digital Key is Passive Proximity Access. As you approach your vehicle with your compatible device, the system can automatically unlock the doors and activate the welcome lighting on supported models. It all happens seamlessly in the background, so you can get in and get on the road without reaching for a key fob.

Key Sharing Capability

Finally, the app allows you to safely share driving privileges with family members directly through your smartphone’s contact list. You can text a temporary or permanent key pass, giving trusted family members and friends access without exchanging a physical key fob. You decide who receives access, and you can manage or revoke shared digital keys directly from your device whenever needed.

Which Cadillac Models Offer Digital Key?

Cadillac Digital Key is available on select newer Cadillac models, including vehicles such as the Cadillac LYRIQ, Cadillac Escalade IQ, OPTIQ, VISTIQ, and other compatible models. Availability depends on the model year, trim level, and smartphone compatibility, so our team can help you determine whether your preferred Cadillac includes this feature.
