Digital Key Activating Horn when locking
Looking to active the horn when I lock the vehicle with the Digital Key...can't find where to do this via the MBUX or the MB app...
Thanks for the advice and direction.

Are you talking about Remote Locking from the app? That's not the digital key, and yes, that won't make a sound. The Digital Key is using your phone as a key instead of the key fob. You can just walk up to the car and lock/unlock via the door handle. When locking the car that way it should make a sound. It won't make a sound if you go into the app and use the remote lock feature, because generally you won't be near the car when using remote lock. The whole point of that feature is to lock it from far away if you forget to lock it. The Digital Key is another feature altogether and not available on all models, but when available and configured, it behaves just like the key fob.

Thanks didn't realize that was the case with the app. We have a BMW X5 when using the app does sound a horn chirp when locking/unlocking.
