ChatGPT has introduced a user-friendly widget for Android smartphones, streamlining the way users interact with the language model.Â
The widget, available on ChatGPT version 1.2024.052, allows quick access and convenient communication options.
Users can seamlessly engage with ChatGPT through five modes: typing queries, uploading or capturing photos, and voice search.
Notably, the widget caters to Nothing Phones users, enabling direct placement on the home screen for added accessibility.
However, a noteworthy feature, the photo or camera search, comes with a subscription requirement. Users opting for this premium capability will need to subscribe to ChatGPT Plus at Rs 1,950/month.
In a beta development, a shortcut to the quick settings menu was introduced, enhancing the speed of access for eager users.
Adding the widget to the home screen is a simple process – just long-press on the home screen, click on widgets, and select ChatGPT (procedure may vary slightly based on smartphone brand).
It’s important to highlight the broader availability of ChatGPT, catering to both Android and iOS users. Drawing comparisons with Microsoft’s Copilot, both powered by the GPT language model, ChatGPT stands out with its versatile widget integration.
Furthermore, OpenAI has unveiled Sora, a groundbreaking language model capable of converting text prompts into high-definition videos lasting up to 60 seconds.
While access to Sora is initially limited, subscribers to ChatGPT Plus can anticipate gaining access soon, marking a new horizon in AI-driven interactions.
