Possible Duplicates and Conflicts in 1Pasword 8

Hi glindsey,

Thanks so much for your kind words, I'm glad to hear you're enjoying 1Password 8 so far! I'll do my best to answer your questions in order:

1. You don't need to have the 1Password icon in your menu bar for the app or the browser extension to work, it's up to how you prefer to use 1Password. In the 1Password preferences, you can choose whether or not you'd like the menu bar icon to be visible, and you can also customize what clicking it does:
   

2. Good observation, thankfully not a bug! To allow for better integration with Safari, our Safari browser extension exists as a separate app. You won't need to launch it for the browser extension to function though, and all your 1Password browser extension settings can be accessed directly in Safari. 🙂

3. Could I confirm you're in the same account/collection on both devices? On the Mac desktop app you can check this in the top left and on the 1Password 8 Android app you can check this by tapping the icon in the top right. If so, I'd also like to confirm that you see the same alerts in Watchtower on both devices (duplicate/weak passwords, expiring items, inactive two-factor authentication).

We can troubleshoot further from there. Let me know what you find or if you have any questions!
