Add a new Watch key without a KeyCard

[actuariat]

Watchlha 3.9.1 works well via internet, but it lost BLE connection to a stored key. So I need to "set up" a new one somehow. I didn't pressed Reset BLE Data.

I have no physical KeyCard. A

Hi @actuariat, Watchla stores your Bluetooth Watch Key on your Apple Watch's onboard keychain. While Watchla can add to and remove from this keychain, your Apple Watch's OS maintains it. We suspect that in your case, WatchOS might have inadvertently deleted Watchla keychain data upon updating the app. 

You can try force-closing and reopening the Watchla app to see if that resolves the issue. However, you may need to set up a new Watch Key, and unfortunately, you will need your keycard to do so.

Additionally, we are exploring adding the ability to set up a Watch Key without the need for a Tesla keycard in the future.

Please add the option to set up a Watch Key without requiring a Tesla keycard. I'm currently in Tenerife, 5,000 km away from home, and I’ve never used a keycard except during the initial setup. I’m available to assist if needed!

I was able to set my own API setting on my macbook, but no idea how to set a BLE connection.
