Works for Digidentity Wallet whether or not it has its own passcode. No download needed.
Touch and hold Digidentity Wallet's icon, tap Require Face ID, then confirm. On iOS 18 and later that puts Digidentity Wallet behind Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode; choose Hide and Require Face ID instead to move it into App Library's Hidden folder as well.
Lock Digidentity Wallet with Face ID
- Find Digidentity Wallet on your Home Screen or in App Library.
- Touch and hold the icon until the quick-actions menu opens.
- Tap Require Face ID (or Require Touch ID / Require Passcode, depending on your iPhone).
- Tap Require Face ID again to confirm. Digidentity Wallet now asks for authentication every time it opens.
To test it, close Digidentity Wallet from the App Switcher and open it again. You should see the Face ID prompt before any content appears.
Hide Digidentity Wallet in App Library
- Touch and hold Digidentity Wallet's icon and tap Require Face ID.
- Choose Hide and Require Face ID instead of Require Face ID.
- Confirm. The icon leaves your Home Screen and moves to the Hidden folder at the bottom of App Library.
- To open it later, swipe to App Library, tap Hidden and authenticate.
Hiding also locks the app. To undo either, touch and hold the icon again and choose Don't Require Face ID.
Why lock Digidentity Wallet?
Digidentity Wallet's privacy label lists sensitive info — the kind of data you would not want on screen if someone borrows your unlocked phone. Wallet apps hold payment details, passes or crypto keys. Financial data on the label is expected; tracking alongside it is the thing to compare.
Productivity apps tend to collect the work you do in them — documents, notes and files — so User Content is common. The question is whether it syncs to the developer's servers and how it is protected there.
A lock answers one question — who can open the app on this iPhone. It does not change what Digidentity Wallet sends to its developer; for that, see Digidentity Wallet's full privacy report.
