How to Use ChatGPT on iPhone and Android
If you want to use ChatGPT, the AI-powered language model developed by OpenAI, on your iPhone or Android device, you may be wondering how to get started. While there is no official ChatGPT app for mobile devices, there is a mobile-friendly version of the website that can be accessed through a web browser.
However, it's important to be careful when searching for ChatGPT apps in the App Store or Play Store, as there are many fake apps that claim to be powered by ChatGPT but are not. The safest way to use ChatGPT on your phone is through the official website at chat.openai.com. Alternatively, you can use Microsoft's Bing app, which uses the same language learning model (LLM) as ChatGPT.
Using ChatGPT on an iPhone or iPad
To use ChatGPT on an iPhone or iPad, follow the steps below:
- Open the Safari browser and navigate to the ChatGPT website at chat.openai.com.
- Tap the share button (up arrow within a square) in the toolbar.
- Scroll through the share sheet and tap "Add to Home Screen."
- Change the shortcut name to "ChatGPT" and tap "Add."
The ChatGPT website shortcut will now be added to your home screen, and can be used with Siri using the Apple Shortcuts app.
Using ChatGPT on an Android device
To use ChatGPT on an Android device, such as a smartphone or tablet, follow the steps below:
- Open the Google Chrome browser and navigate to the ChatGPT website at chat.openai.com.
- Tap the three-dot menu icon in the top right corner.
- Select "Add to Home Screen" from the menu.
- Change the shortcut name to "ChatGPT" and tap "Add."
- A pop-up from your home screen launcher will appear, and you can tap and hold to drag the icon to the home screen or automatically add it by tapping "Add to Home Screen."
Now you can quickly and easily access ChatGPT from your Android device's home screen.
While there are currently no official ChatGPT apps for mobile devices, the mobile-friendly website works well on both iPhone and Android. It's an exciting time for AI tools, but Google Assistant and Siri need not be worried just yet.
