Abstract
A vehicle system includes one or more vehicle processors programmed to: provide a user interface to program a first wireless device as a new vehicle key and to delete a second wireless device as an existing vehicle key. The one or more vehicle processors may be further programmed to wirelessly transmit vehicle key security codes from the vehicle to the first device to program the first device. The one or more vehicle processors may be further programmed to display one or more programmed devices including the second device via a user interface for user selection to delete the second device as an existing vehicle key.

13. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions configured to cause at least one processor coupled to a transceiver to:
-
receive a request via the transceiver for establishing communication between the at least one processor and a vehicle processor; receive vehicle key security codes and a predefined user identification from the vehicle processor based on the established communication such that the at least one processor is configured to command one or more vehicle functions without the presence of a vehicle key fob; and in response to the predefined user identification entered at a user interface, transmit the one or more vehicle functions to the vehicle processor. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)
