BYD NFC does not support smart bands, but it does support NFC phone car keys. Below is relevant information about NFC: Introduction to NFC: NFC is a near-field wireless communication technology that enables data exchange between devices when they are in close proximity. This technology has a wide range of applications in daily life, such as replacing access cards, transit cards, and even serving as a payment method, turning your phone into a versatile cardholder for numerous convenient operations. NFC Phone Car Key: BYD DiLink NFC phone car key utilizes this technology, leveraging the phone's secure chip and NFC functionality to serve as a car key, eliminating the need for a physical car key.

I'm a car enthusiast who loves researching new car features. BYD's NFC function is typically implemented through a digital key, which can be used to unlock or start the vehicle. This mainly supports smartphones, such as Apple or Android devices. As for smart bands, some models like Xiaomi or Huawei are supported because they come with built-in NFC chips, but this isn't compatible with all BYD models. You'll need to check your car's specific configuration or the settings instructions in the app. To set it up, you need to pair the device in the official BYD app, select to add a smart band, and then follow the prompts. The advantage is that it's super convenient when you forget your keys, but make sure the band has enough battery to avoid accidental lockouts. It's recommended to test it before getting in the car or check the user manual to confirm compatibility.

I've been driving for over a decade and have encountered door lock issues a few times. Regarding whether BYD's NFC supports smart bands, the answer is possibly, but it depends on your specific band model and vehicle type. It's best to check the instructions in the BYD app or directly test it at a 4S store to save time. If supported, the setup is simple: open the mobile app, add a new device, select NFC band mode, and enter the verification code. For daily use, the band needs to be close to the door handle's sensing area to work; it may not function if too far away or with low battery. This feature is quite practical, like unlocking directly during workouts without needing to pull out keys. However, I recommend not relying solely on it; keeping a phone as backup is safer.
