For those which are not aware, Jaxx Liberty wallet recently shut down their services.
I received this email in March:

I saw this message at beginning of April as I only use Jaxx rarely. However, I had some funds deposited inside it and I was afraid I lost them.
I quickly checked Help section from Jaxx and there was a mention to a blog post as well:
https://blog.jaxx.io/jaxx-liberty-sunsetting-update.
I tried to transfer my funds but I was unable to. Fortunately,
another blog post explained me what to do:
Migrating your Jaxx Liberty wallet to a different compatible wallet is simple. You do not need to send your digital assets out – all you need to do is input your Jaxx Liberty 12-word backup phrase into a trusted wallet platform like Edge Wallet or Exodus Wallet to manage your cryptocurrency from there. In fact, after we shut down Jaxx Liberty servers on March 27, 2023, using your backup phrase with another wallet will be the only way to migrate your digital assets.
However, this statement scared me a little:
We expect to officially retire Jaxx Liberty on March 27, 2023, at 8:00 am ET. After this time, users will still be able to view their 12-word backup phrase for a limited time, but they will be unable to make transactions and balances may be out of date
I had my seed phrase stored somewhere but I was afraid I will not be able to migrate my wallet.
However, I took my chances with Exodus (Android version). At first glance my fears worsened: I could not scan the QR code of the screenshot containing my seed phrase. The QR code scanner from Exodus did not recognize my QR code from Jaxx. However, next step I made was to write down manually all the words of the seed phrase.
Hooray, it worked!I have no idea how things work in case of Edge Wallet, but I believe they are similar.
In any case, I advise all Jaxx Liberty users to migrate their funds as soon as possible, while they still can! I migrated my wallet at beginning of April, so still after the deadline given by Jaxx and I was able to do the operation. However, the more time passes, the lower are the chances to see your seed phrase inside Jaxx, in case you did not store it somewhere else. And also, it is possible that the wallet migration to not be possible after some more time passes.
I hope this thread will be helpful to all Jaxx users.
