assign a third value to each of the digital identities, the third value comprising a category tag; sort the plurality of digital identities according to a search function upon receipt of a search command, the search command comprising a search term and an ordered combination of indexing values, each of the indexing values comprising one of a date, a location, and a category; filter the plurality of digital identities according to an output value of the search function 0.6X+0.3Y+0.1Z and the search term, wherein X is a first indexing value from the ordered combination of indexing values, wherein Y is a second indexing value from the ordered combination of indexing values, and wherein Z is a third indexing value from the ordered combination of indexing values; order the plurality of digital identities from highest output value to lowest output value according to the filtered plurality of digital identities; and display the ordered plurality of digital identities on the single screen of the mobile device, wherein the digital identities of third parties not associated with the first user are automatically installed on the mobile device based upon one or more of speed, location, distance, duration, network connection, and/or search history. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the first indexing value comprises the date, wherein the second indexing value comprises the location, and wherein the third indexing value comprises the category. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein one or more of the indexing values is defined as a range of values. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the search term comprises global positioning system coordinates of the mobile device that are automatically transmitted to the memory such that the mobile device sorts and filters the plurality of digital identities according to a real-time location of the mobile device. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the memory further stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: send a signal to an adjacent mobile device having one or more second device digital identities stored thereon; cache the one or more second device digital identities in the memory; sort the one or more second device digital identities according to the search function and the search command; filter the one or more second device digital identities with the plurality of digital identities from highest output value to lowest output value to generate a combined filtered list of digital identities;
