OpenAI has released a free ChatGPT iPhone app in the U.S., with an Android version coming soon. The first official mobile app for the language model competes with other third-party apps that use OpenAI software.
- The iOS app is currently free and has no ads, with an optional $20 per month subscription for ChatGPT Plus.
- It syncs a user's chat history across devices and delivers the latest model enhancements from OpenAI.
- In addition to text inputs, the mobile app recognizes and responds to voice commands, though it can only generate text-based answers.
- While currently only available in the U.S., the app will be released worldwide "soon," according to OpenAI CTO Mira Murati.
