I don’t understand how retrieving a phone from a pocket is somehow less convenient than retrieving a wallet from a pocket, and then retrieving the card from the wallet. That’s 1 step versus 2 steps.

Unlocking the phone can take a bit longer. I use my watch, which is just as inconvenient but at least I don’t have to reach for anything. @OpticalMoose
How the heck is your watch inconvenient? It’s already out. It’s already unlocked. You don’t even need to pull up your sleeve. I just double-click and wave my arm in front if the reader- you can’t get more convenient

Logging in, dragging down from the top, picking the right card, getting it to the exact location on the scan tool used and angling my wrist properly so it can send the data.
That’s not too mention keeping you’re watch operating system up to date so the card will actually work
That’s crazy talk - enable automatic updates and set the default card to the one you usually use. Usually it reads if within an inch or two, although you never know where the sensor may be

What watch do you use?
@june
Pixel watch 2, not that it really matters as the point is valid with any that are even remotely secure.
Just curious to know which watch has that laborious of a process. No judgement here.
My Apple Watch is a double click and my default card pops right up. Ezpz.
