Key fob no longer starts car

For the past few months, maybe more, my comfort access worked randomly. Some days I can walk up to car and open door without removing key from pocket. Most other days I have to use fob and unlock with button. I just got used to it.

Well today for the first time the car wouldn’t start with the key fob. Screen on dash said “no key recognized” then “hold key to colum” that didn’t work after numerous times, eventually it read it and started. I’m assuming the key fob has gone bad. I don’t believe it’s the antenna because I can still lock and unlock the car from a distance. I’ve just lost certain functions. I’m going to just go and order another key tomorrow. Lost the spare, just wanted to see if anyone has had similar key fob issues before.
