Blockstream Jade allows users to unlock their device with a PIN and a series of QR scans, instead of needing to connect via USB or Bluetooth. This is especially helpful for QR Mode users who prefer to use their Jade air-gapped and do not want to carry a SeedQR with them to spend.
Tip: This process will be similar for users who want to set up a new PIN using QRs during initialization.
