Digital Key setup 2025 Laramie

[Ski Bum]

I can't use the phone yet, but the key card works by itself without the key fob nearby. I tap the key card on the door, it unlocks the doors. Then if you put the key card against the wireless charger the car recognizes the key and will let you start it.

Same here, the key card works by tapping on the door and putting it in on the wireless charger spot. I did have a few times where it didn't work that seamlessly opening the doors, etc. so I just keep it at home. Not confident enough to just bring that and not the keyfob. While it's nice cause it's thin like a credit card, I still want the Phone as Key (Digital Key) functionality. Still no signs of a release yet?

Maybe I'll try the key card since UConnect was updated...close to home lol.

I'm about ready to pick up a truck tomorrow or this weekend... When you guys are referring to "Level 2" Package, are you talking about the Technology Package or the Laramie Level 2 Equipment Package?

Yes I believe so.
I picked up my new 2025 Limited yesterday. The digital key situation is interesting. I’ve also reached out to dealer and he is going to do some digging into this. Hopefully they get this rolled out sooner than later.

Wow I feel slow been trying for hours to get the key card to work in the app.

So, I just got off the phone with the Ram Connected Services customer service folks and they told me that the Digital Key stuff hasn't officially launched yet and there is no ETA on that launch...

Did they indicate that it will eventually be available for vehicles that were supposed to have the feature but were already built? Or did they indicate it will only be available on vehicles that will be built after the feature is available?

Hoping it's just a software push.

If you got the 'credit card' NFC enabled card with your vehicle, I'm assuming that it's just a software update / push.

If you didn't get this card with your vehicle, I'm not entirely sure...

 

[Bsjoiner]

Does anyone have any update on when this will be released?

No ETA yet from what I read up above.

Pickup up my custom ordered 2015 Ram 1500 Limited Longhorn on December 11, 2024 (it had been delivered to the dealer a week earlier). It came with the digital key card and it works. Anyone know if duplicate cards can be ordered?

When you say "the digital key card and it works" - do you mean the credit card sized key or actually using your phone as a key through the app or otherwise?

Just checked the credit card key on my week old longhorn, worked perfectly. Might be worth keeping in the wallet incase of a lost fob. Ed

@RamTruckMan found this, NHTSA ID 11010952 about the phone as a digital key.
At least confirms it's only a SW update, and "planned" for 1Q25. So we can at least hope it shows up sometime next year.
