ChatGPT is most useful when it's easy to access throughout your day. Whether you're working at your desk, using your phone, or on the go, having quick access to ChatGPT helps you capture ideas, ask questions, and get assistance without interrupting your workflow.
Using the desktop and mobile apps also provides convenient features such as keyboard shortcuts, voice conversations, and quicker access compared to opening a browser.
Pick whichever option is quickest on each device - the browser for zero setup, and the desktop and mobile apps for faster, richer access.
The web version at chatgpt.com needs no installation and always runs the latest version. It is the quickest way to get started and the best option on machines where you can't install apps.
The mobile apps keep ChatGPT with you on the go, with voice conversations and photo sharing built in.
OpenAI ships a native desktop app for Windows and macOS. It gives you a dedicated window, the Alt + Space companion shortcut, screenshot and file sharing, and the latest models.
