The issue I have with my seedsigner is that in order to use it I need to keep a plain text (or QR) copy of a seed phrase in the house.

With a pin protected device I don't need to have that. They have their own vulnerabilities, but for me the trade off makes more sense.

Maybe I'm missing something about the seedsigner functionality.

A seedqr is very discreet compared with 24 words, and a passphrase can be sufficiently complex as to deny entry if the seedqr is compromised.

Backup seedqrs offline in multiple places and keep your passphrase in a password manager or also offline.

My friend used a dremel tool to write his on some nondescript piece of steel attached to his car or house... I donr rememember.

Have another friend who actually made a clothing tag containing the seedqr and attached it discretely to a sports jacket in his closet. 😂

Passphrases can be memorized, too.

Just be sure to generate offline a strong, but memorable, passphrase, like:

I prefer the CompactSeedQR, as it reads our to binary, which is going to be unintelligible to normies and only make sense to the appropriate app.

I know that nostr:npub17tyke9lkgxd98ruyeul6wt3pj3s9uxzgp9hxu5tsenjmweue6sqq4y3mgl supports #CompactSeedQR, but not sure if nostr:npub1jg552aulj07skd6e7y2hu0vl5g8nl5jvfw8jhn6jpjk0vjd0waksvl6n8n Jade does.

Jade does support #CompactSeedQR? Have you tested it?

Yep, I show it in the guide I posted

That's it. The UX is terrible because you're more frequently interacting with the raw seed phrase.
