With 1PW 8 for Mac installed, do I still need the Safari Extension?

As per the title, I am wondering if there is much benefit to having the Safari extension installed on my Mac, when I have 1Password 8 here and able to fill with ease.

Are there any benefits to having both running?

1Password Version: 8.7.0
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: 12.3.1

    Hi @Drewster,

    I'd recommend still having 1Password for Safari installed. In particular, the "Open & Fill" feature won't work without it. And you might have trouble with 2FA codes.

    That said, if you find that you can get by with using only Universal Autofill, that's great!
