OpenAI’s ChatGPT service has recently been introduced on iOS, offering users a convenient AI-powered tool for obtaining answers, receiving innovative suggestions, seeking inspiration, and acquiring new knowledge.
The official ChatGPT app is available for free download and installation on your iPhone. It enables you to make the same types of requests as on the website, allowing you to copy the responses and access your complete conversation history.
How to create an account or sign in to ChatGPT on iPhone
The ChatGPT app for iOS is now being released in the United States and will expand to other countries and regions in the coming weeks. Additionally, the app will soon be made available for Android devices as well.
ChatGPT is freely available on the App Store, allowing users to download and install it without any cost. However, there is an option for an in-app purchase called ChatGPT Plus. This upgrade provides enhanced availability, quicker responses, and priority access to new features.
When you launch the ChatGPT app for the first time, you will be presented with two options: creating a new account or logging in if you have already registered an account on the ChatGPT website. This allows both new users to sign up and existing users to access their accounts seamlessly within the app.
To create a new account, follow these steps:
- Choose Continue with Apple, Continue with Google, or Sign up with email and enter the required details per the option you pick.
- Provide your personal details, including name, date of birth, and phone number, during the sign-up process to create your account and verify your identity.
- Enter the received code on your iPhone and follow the prompts to set up your account.
- To sign in using your existing account, choose the “Log in” option and enter your login credentials when prompted.
Now you are all set to initiate a new conversation with ChatGPT.
How to use ChatGPT app on iPhone
Using ChatGPT on your iPhone, you can send your requests, copy the responses, provide feedback, and enjoy the same level of service as you would on the web.
Ask a question or submit a request
- To begin, enter your request in the chat’s text field. Alternatively, you can tap the Audio icon to record your question. Once you have finished speaking, tap the Stop button, and your request will be displayed on the screen.
- To submit your question, simply use the Send button. Once you do so, you can expect to receive your answer almost instantly.
- If you have additional requests or questions on the same topic, feel free to submit them within the same conversation. This helps to keep all your related queries together in one thread for easier reference and continuity.
- If you wish to ask a question on a different topic, tap the three dots located on the top right corner of the screen. From there, select “New chat” and a new conversation will begin, allowing you to explore a different topic or query.
Copy a response or selected text
Once you receive a response to your request, you have various options to interact with that response. One of these options includes copying the response or working with specific text from it. This allows you to easily utilize or reference the information provided in the response.
To perform additional actions on the answer, long-press (tap and hold) the response and choose from the following options:
- To copy the entire response, select the “Copy” option. This action will save the text to your device’s clipboard, allowing you to paste it wherever you need it.
- If you wish to work with specific text, choose the “Select Text” option. Use the selection handles (dots) to capture the exact portion of the response you desire. Once selected, a shortcut toolbar will appear above the chosen text, providing various actions such as Copy, Look Up, Translate, Search Web, Speak, or Share.
Provide feedback
You have the option to provide feedback to ChatGPT when you receive a response. This feedback is valuable whether you find the response to be accurate or if you have a different perspective. The system learns from this feedback to improve its future responses, ensuring a better experience for users.
Long-press the response and choose either “Good Response” or “Bad Response” to provide feedback. A brief message thanking you for your feedback will appear at the top.
Access your ChatGPT app history on iPhone
One of the great features of ChatGPT and the iOS app is the ability to save and synchronize your conversation history. This allows you to access your past requests and responses anytime, either through the app or the web. You can review, rename, or delete any saved conversations based on your preferences, ensuring easy organization and management.
To access your conversation history, tap the three dots located on the top right corner of the screen and select “History.” This action will display a list of your previous requests and responses, which will appear at the bottom of the screen for easy reference and review.
Select a chat from the conversation history, and once it is displayed, tap the three dots to access a range of available actions:
- To rename a conversation, choose the “Rename” option. Enter the desired new name for the conversation and tap “OK” to save the changes.
- To delete a conversation from your history, select the “Delete” option. After tapping on “Delete,” confirm your action by selecting “Delete” again in the pop-up window. This will remove the conversation from your history.
View the ChatGPT app settings
Although there are not extensive settings available for the ChatGPT app on iPhone, there are a few noteworthy options to be aware of.
- To access the settings in the ChatGPT app on iPhone, tap the three dots located on the top right corner of any chat screen and select “Settings.”
- Within the settings menu, you can tap on “Data Controls” if you wish to export your data or delete your account. Additionally, you can find a toggle for “Haptic Feedback” which allows you to enable or disable the haptic feature according to your preference.
- If you encounter any difficulties or require assistance, you can select “Help Center” to visit the support site. This will provide you with access to additional resources and support for any inquiries or issues you may have.
