It's an option when you set up your phone as a key. If it didn't delete me and just picked the wrong profile, it'd be a great feature.

It needs to let you select the seat _from the door_ before getting in, without access to the touch screen, else someone 6ft getting in after someone 5ft is in for a miserable time.

But it does let you select? You wrote so many words but have no experience yourself.

There is an easy profile toggle

There's a setting I just noticed for the first time this morning that lets you define a phone as the "primary" device - the description in the UI suggests its to prevent issues like you described. I'm not sure how long that feature is been there, but my phone is set up as the primary, and I've not had any weird profile issues. To be fair though, my wife rarely ever drives the Model 3, so we've had fewer chances to see any issues.

Odd. We haven't had any issues with our profiles, worked perfectly for past 18 months.

I was sure you were going to complain about the windshield wipers "automatic" mode
