Are these scary red flags? Upgrading from 1P7 to 1P8
Purchased annual 1Password membership thru Apple's app store in 2019. Installed 1Password 7 on my new 2020 M1 (silicon) the following year. When I upgraded to 1Password 8, everything seems okay. But I have a few quesstions and was hoping y'all could weigh in and give me clarity. Number One: 1Password 8 is in the Applications folder, however, it grouped in the "developer tools" category. I expected it to be in the "Productivity" category. What's the deal? Number Two: the 1P8 application size is 359.5MB. This seems like an awfully high number. Is the size of this app a whopping 359.5MB? Please verify. And lastly, when I go into System Information - Software - Applications - the only iOS app that is listed is....you guessed it...1Password 8. If anyone has had any confusion similar to my own, a little help would be a Godsend. I'm totally confused. Thanks y'all.
1Password Version: 8.10.8
Extension Version: 2.13.0
OS Version: Ventura 13.4.1(c)
Browser: Safari

359MB sounds about right for the production release size. My nightly build is 381MB.
GitHub Desktop, Notion, Slack and VLC are all reported as iOS. I'm not sure why. My best guess is it has to do with the underlying architecture of the app. But that is only a wild stab in the dark because that's the first thing my mind went to.
As to the category, in my ~18 years on a Mac, I have not grouped apps together. Likely because I use Alfred for everything. Some of my browsers appear in Productivity and others appear in Utilities, for example.

I appreciate your input, ag_tommy. I get the feeling that I am making much ado about a whole lot of nothing. Thanks again for weighing in....
