OpenAI’s ChatGPT has been making waves in the world of AI assistants, and now there are exciting developments for Android users on the horizon. Android expert Mishaal Rahman revealed that the latest version of the ChatGPT app includes a new 4 x 2 widget with shortcuts for text, camera, image, and voice query functions. This widget allows users to access these features directly from their phone’s home screen, providing a convenient way to interact with the AI bot.
Although the new widget feature has not yet officially landed on the Google Play Store and is currently in beta, eager users can still download it separately to try it out. However, some features such as camera and image search queries are exclusive to the paid plan of ChatGPT called ChatGPT Plus. This premium plan offers benefits like general access to ChatGPT at all times, faster response times, and priority access to new features and improvements for $20 per month.
ChatGPT has been a strong contender in the AI assistant arena, competing with Google’s Gemini. Interestingly, ChatGPT has been available on Android devices before Gemini made its debut on the platform. Google recently launched a standalone Gemini app but faced criticism over its accuracy in representing people using its AI image tool.
Stay tuned for more updates on ChatGPT’s evolution and how it continues to enhance the user experience on Android smartphones. Join us as we explore the exciting world of AI assistants and their impact on everyday interactions!
