iOS app available in more countries, shared links in alpha, Bing Plugin, disable history on iOS (May 24)
ChatGPT app for iOS in more countries
Good news! We’re expanding availability of the ChatGPT app for iOS to more countries and regions. Users in 11 countries can now download the ChatGPT app in the Apple App Store including the United States: Albania, Croatia, France, Germany, Ireland, Jamaica, Korea, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Nigeria, and the United Kingdom.
We will continue to roll out to more countries and regions in the coming weeks. You can track the iOS app rollout here.
Shared Links
We're excited to introduce a new feature: shared links. This feature allows you to create and share your ChatGPT conversations with others. Recipients of your shared link can either view the conversation or copy it to their own chats to continue the thread. This feature is currently rolling out to a small set of testers in alpha, with plans to expand to all users (including free) in the upcoming weeks.
To share your conversations:
Click on the thread you’d like to share
Select the “Share” button
Click on “Copy Link”
Learn more.
Bing Plugin
Browse with Bing. We’ve integrated the browsing feature - currently in beta for paid users - more deeply with Bing. You can now click into queries that the model is performing. We look forward to expanding the integration soon.
Disable chat history on iOS
You can now disable your chat history on iOS. Conversations started on your device when chat history is disabled won’t be used to improve our models, won’t appear in your history on your other devices, and will only be stored for 30 days. Similar to the functionality on the web, this setting does not sync across browsers or devices. Learn more.
Web browsing and Plugins are now rolling out in beta (May 12)
If you are a ChatGPT Plus user, enjoy early access to experimental new features, which may change during development. We’ll be making these features accessible via a new beta panel in your settings, which is rolling out to all Plus users over the course of the next week.
Once the beta panel rolls out to you, you’ll be able to try two new features:
Web browsing: Try a new version of ChatGPT that knows when and how to browse the internet to answer questions about recent topics and events.
Plugins: Try a new version of ChatGPT that knows when and how to use third-party plugins that you enable.
To use third-party plugins, follow these instructions:
Navigate to https://chat.openai.com/
Select “Plugins” from the model switcher
In the “Plugins” dropdown, click “Plugin Store” to install and enable new plugins
To enable beta features:
Click on 'Profile & Settings'
Select 'Beta features'
Toggle on the features you’d like to try
For more information on our rollout process, please check out the article here.
In addition to the beta panel, users can now choose to continue generating a message beyond the maximum token limit. Each continuation counts towards the message allowance.
Release notes (May 3)
We’ve made several updates to ChatGPT! Here's what's new:
You can now turn off chat history and export your data from the ChatGPT settings. Conversations that are started when chat history is disabled won’t be used to train and improve our models, and won’t appear in the history sidebar.
We are deprecating the Legacy (GPT-3.5) model on May 10th. Users will be able to continue their existing conversations with this model, but new messages will use the default model.
Release notes (March 23)
We are announcing experimental support for AI plugins in ChatGPT — tools designed specifically for language models. Plugins can help ChatGPT access up-to-date information, run computations, or use third-party services. You can learn more about plugins here.
Today, we will begin extending plugin access to users and developers from our waitlist. The plugins we are rolling out with are:
Browsing: An experimental model that knows when and how to browse the internet
Code Interpreter: An experimental ChatGPT model that can use Python, and handles uploads and downloads
Third-party plugins: An experimental model that knows when and how to use external plugins.
You can join the waitlist to try plugins here:
