How do I use Porsche ID profiles in the Taycan?

As the owner of a Taycan, you can add other people - for example, family members - as secondary users (additional drivers) to your car and its Connect services. Each secondary user then gets their own Porsche ID and can configure the services according to their personal preferences.

Managing Porsche ID profiles

The Taycan identifies the driver based on the vehicle key used. The Porsche ID is linked to the corresponding profile. When getting in, the corresponding user profile with the saved personal settings is loaded automatically.

Tip: Use a separate vehicle key for the primary and secondary driver. The key always retains the last profile used and automatically restores that profile’s settings the next time the vehicle is driven.

Up to five drivers can sign in to the vehicle using their own Porsche ID.

The following settings, among others, are stored in the profile:

Seat, steering wheel and exterior mirror positions Radio presets, navigation and climate control Instrument cluster and PCM display views Driver assistance systems Sound profile and driving modes

Important : Personalisation requires an active Porsche ID and Porsche Connect. Privacy mode must be deactivated. Otherwise, no connection can be established between the My Porsche app and the vehicle, and Porsche Connect services will be limited.

My Porsche app is also available via Apple CarPlay. This allows selected vehicle functions to be operated directly within Apple CarPlay, without switching interfaces.
