How do I access the assets in my Jaxx wallet using Qadirah?
The easiest way to access your funds from Jaxx in Qadirah is to import your Jaxx wallet’s 12-word secret recovery phrase, which is known in Jaxx as the backup phrase, into a new Qadirah wallet. Please know that this does not send your funds. Instead, it allows you to interact with these funds in your new Qadirah wallet.
So first download Qadirah, then import your Jaxx funds with your Jaxx 12-word backup phrase.
If you already have an Qadirah, you can import Jaxx into a new Qadirah wallet and send all of your funds to your existing Qadirah wallet as regular transactions. For instructions, jump to: How do I send my funds from Jaxx to an existing Qadirah wallet?
