Only sometimes it’s opened with the standard guest profile but then it’s easy to change profile before you set off.

but when the digital key is shared with another iPhone, the X1 doesn't seem to automatically pick a profile when that other iPhone is used to enter and start the car....
the Genius told me that there can only be one digital key for the phones(Android or iPhone) and if there are 2 or more phones in the family, all phones shares the same digital key.... or is there a way around that so the 2nd iPhone can have its own digital key and allow for automatic profile switching?
thanks!
SpaceSilverX1 wroteBeing that I'm the only driver of my car, I have no way to set up more than one, but it does seem that what the genius said is correct. From memory, I don't think I've ever seen an option to add a second Digital Key.on the first iPhone that was set up with the digital key, that is what it does.

SpaceSilverX1 wroteFor each profile, you need to go into the BMW ID and select which keys are assigned to that profile. I think on mine I have one of the key fobs, the Main User iPhone Digital Key and Apple Watch Digital Key.Can X1 automatically log into my profile when using digital key on iPhone?

My wife has the other key fob, the Joint User iPhone Digital Key and the Card-based Digital Key.
Detects each profile every time as long as we're not both next to the drivers door when you pull the door handle!

Not sure what I actually did, but now the correct profile is selected, depending on which phone enters the car...For each profile, you need to go into the BMW ID and select which keys are assigned to that profile.
