CarPlay Disconnect
The car locks behind you as you walk away.
Open the Shortcuts app and go to the Automation tab.
Tap + or New Automation.
Choose CarPlay as the trigger.
Select Disconnects.
Turn on Run Immediately so it runs without asking, then tap Next.
Under Getting Started, tap New Blank Automation.
Add an action, search for BetterKey, then choose Lock my car.
Tap Vehicle, then choose which car to lock.
Set a delay (for example, 5 minutes) so your car locks shortly after you disconnect CarPlay.
Tap Done.
When CarPlay disconnects, your car will lock after the delay you set.
FAQ
Why doesn’t BetterKey include these automations?
Automations are personal and must be created on the device where they run.
Because of this, BetterKey can’t install them for you — but we guide you through setting them up in just a few steps.
How will I know the automation worked?
BetterKey will notify you when your car is locked or unlocked.
Make sure notifications are enabled in Settings › Features › Notifications to stay updated.
