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...

Thanks for asking, great questions!
- 1Password for Safari is using the new Safari Web Extension system, moving from the current App Extension system. This change allows us to bring all the improvements we've made with 1Password in the browser for other browsers to Safari. To allow 1Password for Safari to communicate with both 1Password 8 downloaded from our website, as well as 1Password 8 downloaded from the App Store in the future, it's necessary to be a separate application downloaded from the App Store.
- Indeed yes, that's correct. 1Password 8 and 1Password for Safari will share a lock state, and 1Password for Safari can be unlocked using Touch ID or an Apple Watch.
- This dialog is asking for permissions to be able to fill your information. Without granting permissions to all sites, 1Password for Safari cannot detect or fill any information.
As for the URLs you're referring to in your second post: we have various different sites for development and testing purposes.
