1Password 8 for Mac, A Bunch of Questions... [1Password for Safari]

Hi All!

Apologies or putting this post here but I did not see a separate category for 1Password 8 for Mac so here it is.

I am a long time 1Password user on multiple platforms but want to better understand a few things about 1Password 8 for Mac:

  1. After installing 1Password 8 I went through the settings and was asked to "Get 1Password for Browser" which then sent me to the App Store and had me download an 1Password for Safari. As this is the first time that I have ever a) been directed to separate site and b) had to elect to download a separate file is this normal (i.e. Windows 11 install using Edge did not direct me to another site)?

  2. After installing 1Password 8 and 1Password for Safari are the "desktop app" and the "browser extension" linked as in the past: that is will unlocking 1Password 8 unlock 1Password for Safari?

  3. The first time I used 1Password for Safari I received the below pop-up Window. I am not sure what it means and would appreciate someone explaining it to me. Also what is the consequences of the various responses, including the Deny response.

I would appreciate responses t the above.

Thanks.


1Password Version: 8.5.0
