Hey there, welcome to 1Password! When using the desktop application of 1Password, on top of being able to easily manage and edit your items from the application instead of needing to use 1Password.com, you also have the ability to keep 1Password in your browser unlocked for however long the 1Password desktop application is unlocked. Additionally, because the 1Password desktop application is handling the unlocking, Windows Hello can be used to unlock 1Password for Windows and by extension, unlock 1Password in your browser as well. You're also able to manage large amounts of items in the desktop app (for example, copying a bunch of items from one vault to another). Answer from 1Password-Mallory on reddit.com

r/1Password on Reddit: Benefit of Windows App?
January 6, 2023 -
I just switched to 1Password and am running the Chrome extension and using the website as well. I saw that there is a desktop app for Windows. What are the benefits to the app as to my current setup?

Definitely install the 1Password desktop app. It really enhances the experience! As others have said, just try it and you will see the benefits. If you really do not, then you can uninstall it. I would agree with anyone who says, "Why can't this just all be in the extension?". However, I also find the 1Password Desktop App + Chrome Extension experience far better than the Lastpass experience was, so I accept that some things are just smoother in a Desktop App.

Im trying to export my wife's passwords to a csv file and apparently I need to do it with the app, not with her usual access to 1Password using just the Firefox 1Password extension and whatever that opens when she starts 1Password that way. You do indeed need to install the desktop app to export your items.

7 hours ago - Securely sharing items with others in your 1Password Families and 1Password Business accounts is super easy, too. With shared vaults, items magically appear for everyone you grant access to and everything shared in this way will prominently show who has access. Windows Hello is integrated directly into the lock screen to provide a passwordless unlock experience. And those with a TPM 2.0-enabled PC are in for a treat later this year when our enhanced support for Windows Hello will allow unlocking 1Password, even after app restarts and system reboots (join our beta family to be the first to enjoy this once available).

I will say Windows Hello makes the desktop app and consequently the extension much more seamless

You don't "need" to have it, no. I like it since it works well with the extension. This way I can have the 1password app open, open chrome, and it is ready to go. I say give it a try and see -- worst case you just go back to using the extension only :).
