How to use your phone to lock or unlock your Nissan 

To unlock your vehicle through your phone, you’ll need the MyNISSAN app set up on your phone. Then, it’s as easy as opening this app to access this convenient feature. Get the app one of these two ways: 

  • Visit Matt Castrucci Nissan: If you prefer to have some help, you can visit your local Nissan dealership and have them guide you through the enrollment process. They can answer any questions you may have and make sure you’re set up with all the features you need. 
  • Use your app store: Alternatively, you can download the app from the App Store or Google Play and sign up at home. The process is straightforward, and you’ll be able to access all the same features as you would if you enrolled in person.
