Owning a car sucks mostly for one reason: I’m always losing my keys.
Like this morning on the way to the coffee shop when I somehow managed to lose my key after I already got in the car. Keys were not made for me, which is why I might need to upgrade to a Volvo someday because the company just revealed it’s ready to turn Apple Watch into the key to your car.
The Swedish automaker announced that it’s planning a big upgrade to the Volvo On Call system that will bring some of the best features from the iPhone to the Apple Watch.
The On Call app will still provide its original safety functions — like calling for help when you get in an accident or need assistance — but it will also add some other convenient features like remote locking, fuel level indicators, and Find My Car.
Volvo plans to release the update by the end of June. You can also set the heater or amp up the AC before making the long trek from your front porch to the car so you don’t have to suffer a minute longer than is necessary. Or just so you feel like a spy with a kick ass smart car.
