If I remember correctly if you set up user profiles, it tells you what key is associated with the profile. So two different people can have different profiles depending on the key that is in the car.

My car gives a welcome message with the profile name that the fob is connected with.

I haven't start it up again since I set it up so IDK how it turns out yet. Mine doesn't do the old Ford chime during start up, all I get is the heartbeat. Is the old chime an option?

I’ll need to compare the two to verify but externally the fobs look the same. You could possibly tag / mark one so by time you get in you don’t find out it was the wrong one, assuming door recall buttons (x3?) are na.

I bought 2 key fob cover in different color so all I need to know is which one is which before I put them on.

I haven't seen an option to change it from heartbeat (or are they hoof beats?)

It did play the old chime every once in awhile when I was driving a rental Ecoboost convertible.
