Hello
I have a couple of questions regarding setting up multiple driver profiles on my Lexus 2025 ES 300h:

1) I have two different profiles set up on the car: Wife (Primary), Me (Secondary) - heck," it's her car"

I have the Lexus app installed on my wife's phone and she can do things like "see the status" and "remote start", etc. I am wondering how to set up the Lexus App on my phone (secondary driver) to see the car as well (even if it has limited capabilities). Is this even possible?

2) The car came with two key fobs. Is it possible to associate a key fob with a particular profile so that it recognizes who is driving the car based on the key fob and then load that profile?

Many thanks for any assistance offered!

 

Since your wife's Lexus account is set up as the primary driver profile, she (or you using her Lexus login account) must give your Lexus login account permission to use the Lexus app's remote features for your wife's ES.

(I assume you've already added to your ES a non-primary driver profile for yourself and Bluetooth paired your cell phone to that driver profile.)

The instructions for doing that can be found on Lexus Connected Technology Support (home page) by selecting your model (ES 300h) and model year (2025) click the "GET STARTED" button to go to a dashboard tile list. On that list click on "REMOTE CONNECT" which will take you to another page with another tile list. Click on the "HOW TO SHARE REMOTE CONNECT" tile which will take you to another page of tiles asking whether you're a primary driver or authorized remote driver. Select the "PRIMARY DRIVER" tile which will take you to another page with the first set of instructions for adding another driver the share remote connect with. After accomplishing those steps on the Lexus app (signed in to the primary driver account - your wife's account) click on the "NEXT" button (on the lower right corner of the web page). The resulting page has instructions for filling in the driver information (you and your Lexus account) to share remote connect with and sending an "Invite Driver" to that driver - you.

The ES uses the older electrical architecture which still only allows Lexus Memory System pairing of a key fob through the driver's door buttons and lock switch and doesn't allow linking a key fob to a driver profile as the latest electrical architecture Lexus vehicles links key fobs to driver profiles.

Instead of using a specific key fob to figure out which driver profile to load, the system uses the paired Bluetooth phone being connected as the system starts up to determine which driver profile to download from the cloud and use for configuration settings. (Those settings don't include the Lexus Memory System controlled items.)
