Hello @ssmith1pwd! 👋

Great question! I recommend that you keep both since they perform different functions:

  • 1Password is the desktop app and you can use it to easily edit and manage your items.
  • 1Password for Safari is the browser extension and it allows you to save and fill items into websites open in Safari.

I hope that helps. 🙂
