OpenAI has just launched an iOS app for ChatGPT, with an Android version promised to be coming “soon.”
Not only does this take a huge step towards giving the world’s 6.92 billion smartphone owners direct access to ChatGPT, but it also delivers a number of handy upgrades.
Here’s everything you need to know about the announcement.
- OpenAI has unveiled its ChatGPT iOS app, which is currently available only in the US but is expected to roll out to other countries soon.
- The new app is a significant upgrade from the web version, boasting features such as Whisper integration for voice-to-text and a history search bar for tracking old chats.
- The app is designed to work on both iPhones and iPads and will sync chat history with the web.
- OpenAI has also assured that an Android version of the app is under development and will be released soon.
Why is the ChatGPT app better than the ChatGPT browser?
The ChatGPT app delivers some of the benefits and features that ChatGPT users have been crying out for. That includes:
1. Talk to ChatGPT: Thanks to the Whisper integration, users can now interact with the chatbot through voice commands. One of ChatGPT’s major issues is that you need to type a lot to write your prompts, and not everyone is fast at typing (I’m looking at you, mom). The Whisper integration solves this by allowing people to interact with ChatGPT through their voice. My mom will be happy.
2. History search bar: If you’re a ChatGPT user, it’s likely you’ve lived the infuriating experience of trying to find a specific ChatGPT chat. Those days are over… you can now search for old chats within the ChatGPT app.
