In a significant move towards enhanced convenience, Gogoro has launched a new line of smart scooters that can now be unlocked using the Wallet app on your iPhone or Apple Watch.

Unlocking the Potential: Adding Your Gogoro Scooter Key to iPhone’s Wallet
For the first time, iPhone users can leverage the Wallet app to register their Gogoro scooters, a feature previously exclusive to cars. Apple has provided a step-by-step guide to assist users in seamlessly integrating their scooter key into the Wallet app. Here’s how you can do it:
Prerequisites: To successfully add your Gogoro scooter key to the Wallet app, ensure you have the following:
- A compatible Gogoro scooter.
- An iPhone XS or later with the latest version of iOS or an Apple Watch Series 4 or later, or Apple Watch SE with the latest version of watchOS.
- Sign in to your device with your Apple ID.
Step-by-Step Guide:
- Download the Gogoro app from the App Store and register your scooter.
- Tap the iQ tab.
- Select the scooter key in Apple Wallet and follow the onscreen instructions.
- When directed to the Wallet app, tap “Add” to continue.
- Authenticate with Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode.
Apple highlights that upon adding your scooter key to the Wallet app, Express Mode is automatically activated. Express Mode allows users to utilize their scooter key without unlocking their device or authenticating with Face ID, Touch ID, or a passcode.
Additional Tips:
- Locking and Unlocking: Simply hold your iPhone or Apple Watch near the scooter’s reader to lock or unlock it.
- Starting and Turning Off: To start your scooter, hold your device near the reader, then hold down the brake and press the GO button. To turn it off, repeat the process.
- Sharing Your Scooter Key: Share your scooter key with up to five people via AirDrop or messaging apps, ensuring a seamless and secure transfer.
As Gogoro revolutionizes the intersection of technology and transportation, integrating your scooter key into the iPhone’s Wallet app promises a new level of convenience and efficiency.
