So the Safari App simply replaces the old Browser Plugin

Sort of. The Safari app delivers the new 1Password for Safari extension. It is a (necessary) mechanism for distributing Safari Web Extensions (see: Apple developer documentation). There are two primary advantages for us to use a Safari Web Extension:

  1. It allows 1Password users to use 1Password for Safari either with or without 1Password for Mac, and vice versa
  2. It enables us to deliver a nearly identical experience regardless of which browser the customer chooses to use

I hope that adds some clarity. Please do give it a try and let us know how it goes. 😃
