Bitwarden's Safari Web Extension is a port of the prior App Extension designed for use with Safari 14{:target="_blank"}. The Safari Web Extension is packaged with the Bitwarden Desktop App available on the App Store.
{% callout info %}
Due to changes by Apple, Safari limits Web Extension use to only those obtained through Mac App Store downloads. As of the [2021-03-11 Release]({% link _articles/getting-started/releasenotes.md %}), users will not be able to use a Bitwarden Safari Extension obtained through a .dmg installation from bitwarden.com/download{:target="_blank"} or any other non-App Store source.
If you're using a Safari version prior to 14, you can continue using a .dmg installation, which can be downloaded from bitwarden.com/download{:target="_blank"} by clicking more desktop installation options >. Keeping the .dmg outside of the Applications folder should allow you to simultaneously use both an older Safari Extension and the latest Desktop App.
{% endcallout %}
The Safari Web Extension has full feature parity to the prior App Extension. For developer detail on the difference between Safari Web Extensions and App Extensions, click here.
