Please note that Jaxx is not open source. It’s our position that malicious clones of open source, easily packaged wallets cause a great deal of harm to the community as they make their way onto app stores and across the internet stealing people’s money. We add friction points that make it difficult for our code to be copied all the while still allowing code inspection in multiple ways. If Jaxx not being open source is a concern for you, we urge you not to use our product and find an alternative.
