To facilitate the growing demand for a universal means of digital identification across services, while preserving user control and privacy, multiple digital identity implementations have emerged. From a technical perspective, many of these rely on established concepts within cryptography, allowing them to provide benefits in terms of security and privacy. Recent legislation also promises broader recognition and acceptance of digital identities, both in the digital world and beyond. However, research into the usability, accessibility, and user understanding of digital identities is rare. We argue that the development of usable digital identity wallets is vital to the successful and inclusive application of digital identities in society. In this vision paper, we describe our research plans for obtaining a better understanding of how to develop these usable digital identities wallets.
