Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only way to view the xpub of my Jade is with a QR. Is there a way to view the xpub somewhere  and not in a software wallet? The thing is, that when I scan my xpub in, for example, Sparrow wallet, it will show me a fingerprint an xpub. But how do I know that what I see is correct? I have no way to verify this outside my software wallet

Also, when you register a multi sig wallet in your Jade, you'll also see xpubs and fingerprints per seed. But how do I know if they're correct?

AFAIK, contrary to Passport 2 Jade doesn't reveal xpub's fingerprint on its display Passport 2 does! thus the only way to see it is to use 3rd party software like Sparrow.

You may also see for yourself the correctness of Sparrow (in respect of displaying that fingeprint)  via stand-alone iancoleman  BIP 39 generator.

1) Launch it on the cold air gapped machine.

2) Input your Jade Seed into its "BIP39 Mnemonic" field.

3) Select the correct derivation path

4) Look at "BIP32 Extended Public Key" and copy somewhere the record of this field.

5) Find  SHA256 digest of this record and after this the RIPEMD160 digest of that SHA256 hash.

6) Take first four bites of  RIPEMD160[SHA256]. According to BIP32 the result you get will represent the fingeprint of relevant xpub/

Instead of 5) you may use the ready script for xpub converter. Note that it is safe to use it online as SEED can not be found from xpub.
