As soon as ChatGPT became popular —since the previous year— OpenAI redoubled efforts to develop mobile device apps. Although it is possible to access the chatbot from the web, the company knows that users will always prefer the native experience. After several months, they have finally released the ChatGPT app for iOS. The bad news, however, is that it is not available worldwide.
“Since the launch of ChatGPT, we have heard from users that they would love to use ChatGPT on their mobile. Today we are launching the ChatGPT app for iOS.”
Open AI.
Currently, the ChatGPT app for iOS is only available for download in the United States. However, those responsible warn that, in a short time, it will expand to other countries. If you reside in a North American country, you can now access the App Store and download it for free.
The idea is that this first release will allow them to gather feedback from North American users to improve the app before launching it in other regions.
“We started with the US launch and will expand to more countries in the coming weeks. We can’t wait to see how you use the app. As we gather user feedback, we are committed to continually improving the features and security of the app. ChatGPT.”
What are the functions of the ChatGPT app for iOS?
Although this is the first version, its features are enough to make the most of ChatGPT from your iPhone. OpenAI presumes them like this:
- Instant responses – Like the browser version, you can get multiple instant answers after entering your prompt.
- Advice: if you need to obtain information on topics such as cooking, travel, or message recommendations for your private conversations, the ChatGPT app for iOS offers it to you in record time.
- Creative inspiration: if you don’t know what to give to a loved one on a particular date, ChatGPT comes to the rescue.
- Professional intervention: with ChatGPT, you can ask for technical assistance on various topics or even create summaries of lengthy articles.
- Learning – The chatbot can become your learning guide on various topics and disciplines—for example, languages or modern history.
- Although this application is just seeing the light of day, the reality is that many iOS users already use ChatGPT through shortcuts. And it is that some curious people did not waste time and quickly replaced Siri with the chatbot. The OpenAI tool has proven to be more helpful than Apple’s assistant.
