    If you leave your wallet at home, you won’t:

    • Have ID.
    • Have cash for when your phone dies.
    • Have a card for when your phone dies.

    There are many reasons to have your wallet with you.

        I’ve never lost my wallet once.

        When my phone got to be about 10 years old the battery was dying any time it got too cold.

          IDs are on phones now in a bunch of states and i haven’t carried cash in 20 years. Half the places around here don’t even take cash anymore.

          Ive never had my phone die on me either.

          If we want adoption this needs a solution.
