Your existing funds don't move on their own. Back up the passphrase as carefully as your recovery phrase, then send them across.

Lose the passphrase and the funds are gone, even if you still hold your recovery phrase. It isn't a password you can reset, it's part of the key.

Jade shows an 8 character fingerprint each session. If it doesn't match, you've typo'd.

Passphrases are the BIP-39 standard, not a Jade feature, so the same one works on any wallet that supports it. Case and spaces count.
