Anyone try a digital wallet like Lemon or Key Ring?

Key ring: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.froogloid.kring.google.zxing.client.android

The way I see it is I'd like to minimize my wallet and go down to 2-3 cards maybe + ID. I feel like things like health insurance and AAA can be better kept on my phone. I've always found a managed solution to be better than a manual solution (like a secure spreadsheet versus LastPass), especially for convenience.

Also, as much as I feel like all these hip startups like OnlyCoin are just a bunch of hype aimed at hipsters, and the young carefree techie crowd in San Francisco, it still serves to make my life easier. My main concern is for card skimming though. It'd still be nice to have.

Curious what you guys think.

I use Key Ring on my iPhone for grocery store cards and the like. It seems to work best with the hand scanners, so self-service stations are a no-go for me when shopping.

I use Key Ring and it works great. When one of us gets a rewards/discount card we just load it on both phones. Along with my phone I just carry a small wallet with 3 CC's and my license.
