How do I share a MINI Digital Key Plus for my MINI with MINI Operating System 9 with other people?

The MINI Digital Key makes it possible to share digital keys with other people. This option is available via the smartphone that is enabled as main digital key. This function must be supported by the smartphone. To share the digital key, select the corresponding function on the smartphone, for instance in the Wallet app. As soon as a digital key is shared with another person, the person will receive an invitation. When the invitation is accepted, the digital key on the recipient's smartphone will be activated.  Certain functions of the digital key can be limited before handing it over. For example, you can disable restrictions for driving stability control systems and reduce the engine power before giving your digital key to a novice driver. For more information, refer to the MINI Connected portal and MINI app. Depending on the recipient’s smartphone model, an authentication may be required for security and safety reasons. An authorized vehicle key, the main digital key or another method may be used for authentication. Follow the instructions given on the smartphone or Interaction Unit.
