Priority Bluetooth Device will fix a nagging issue I have had since day one. For some reason my wife's phone key is selected 70 or 80% of the time, she's 5' and with her profile, I have to manually move the seat back, get in, and select my profile. The Glove Box PIN is a nice tweak as well. But I'd still rather have the glove box icon to be in the dock.

Yes, it sounds like a way to link a phone to a profile, which is still a useful feature, but not the same as prioritizing which phone should be used to unlock the car. I would guess it just grabs whichever signal reaches it first, though it would be nice to be able to assign an order of preference to the keys too: "if phones 1 and 2 are within range, use phone 1's profile unless manually told otherwise."

I agree. A two button operation for a one button solution is going backwards.

This may be ignorant, so excuse me if it is, but are you guys really using your glove box that often? I haven’t opened it besides putting the new registration in. What do you store in there that requires a lot of use (this is the ignorant part) I have napkins and a registration in there.

if you use valet parking it is handy to secure docs or valuables. Pre-covid, many urban parking decks and lots use valets and you cannot park your own vehicle. And hotels.

Is her profile listed first? Delete and then reestablish her profile and that may fix your problem.

WTF??!!! In addition, my car recorded 419 Sentry Mode items last night.. couldn't see it because the drive doesn't work. this update BLOWS!
Update: Went to drive the car today and of course the hard drive needed to be formatted (again) to have the dashcam icon show on the screen. So I formatted and the icon showed and everything (dashcam and sentry) works as advertised. Don't what changed but so far so good.
...I don’t think it really matters how often someone uses it. I mean, the fact that it takes 2 buttons to do something that would normally take 1 button...seems like using technology to make things more convoluted. I would have been OK with a very discreet black button (on the glovebox) that blends into the dashboard.

Redoing a profile may be a lot of work. It may be easier to remarry a taller mate. Then they only have to readjust the seat.

I think I found my issue, suddenly my 4+ year old iPhone 6 battery crapped out yesterfday and I had to have a new battery installed but it had been acting up for the last few weeks and that is when the wonky profiles started, so I'm guessing my iPhone would go to some "low power" mode to protect the battery and most likely drop my conection and my wifes woud take priority even though she hadn't driven it for weeks. So far after the new battery was installed my iPhone key has remained the priority.
Fingers crossed that's what it was.
