Jade Plus QR Scan allows users to communicate with a companion app solely using QR codes. Each compatible platform has several benefits and tradeoffs, and users may find certain platforms more favorable to use for different circumstances.
Note: QR mode supports Bitcoin transactions only. Liquid is not supported via QR. To send or receive Liquid assets, connect Jade to the Blockstream app using USB or Bluetooth.
