Codex updates: Computer use and remote control for Windows, usage profiles

Codex now supports Computer Use on Windows in the Codex app, so eligible users can ask Codex to see, click, and type in Windows applications while they test, debug, and refine what they are building. Users can start work on a Windows machine and use ChatGPT on iOS or Android, or Codex on Mac, to check progress, continue the thread, respond to prompts, and steer work while away from the desk; the Windows machine remains the host for project files, shell, app server, and local context.

This release also includes infrastructure updates that improve responsiveness and in-app browser speed, stability, and web compatibility, plus Codex Profiles for eligible users to see their Codex identity, activity over time, profile details, usage stats, and token activity. Computer Use on Windows is unavailable in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland at launch.

GPT-5.5 Instant Update

We’re updating GPT-5.5 Instant in ChatGPT and the API to improve response style and quality. It’s now easier to read, more natural in everyday conversations, and better paced in practical help tasks, with fewer overly long or bullet-heavy responses.

With this update, canvas will no longer be available in GPT-5.5 Instant or GPT-5.5 Thinking. Writing and coding functionality is now supported directly in chat responses through writing blocks and code blocks. Paid users can continue using canvas for a limited time through legacy models until those models are sunset.

Retiring OpenAI o3 and GPT-4.5

Today, we’re continuing to retire older models with limited usage in ChatGPT so we can better serve our newer, most capable models. OpenAI o3 will be retired from ChatGPT on August 26, 2026 following a 90-day sunset period, and GPT-4.5 will be retired from ChatGPT on June 27, 2026 following a 30-day sunset period. These models are currently available to paid users only via model settings. These changes apply to ChatGPT only; there are no changes to the API.

Codex updates: richer context, goal mode, browser improvements, and remote locked use

Codex now has more ways to understand your work context and keep longer tasks moving:

• Appshots in the Codex app on macOS let you attach an app window to a Codex thread with a hotkey, including a screenshot and available text, so Codex can understand what you are looking at without a long setup prompt.

• Goal mode is generally available across the Codex app, IDE extension, and CLI, so you can define an outcome and success criteria and let Codex keep working toward it.

• In-app browser annotations support more precise styling feedback for browser-based and frontend work.

• Locked computer use lets eligible Mac Computer Use users keep Codex working remotely and securely after the Mac locks, subject to existing Computer Use regional constraints.

• Browser use improvements include advanced annotation mode, faster asset extraction, read-only JavaScript context, tab grouping usability, less Chrome extension tab clutter, and reliability improvements.

Learn more: Appshots, Goal mode, locked computer use, in-app browser annotations, and config reference.

Personal finances in ChatGPT

We’re starting to roll out a new personal finance experience in ChatGPT.  Pro users in the United States can securely connect supported financial accounts, see a dashboard of where their money is going, and ask questions grounded in their financial context.

Available on web and iOS, Finances lets you view spending, bills, subscriptions, net worth, and investment information in one place. You can ask questions directly in ChatGPT or use the Finances page to explore insights, review upcoming payments, track recurring charges, and think through budgets, savings goals, debt payoff, and other financial decisions.

Users can connect accounts through Plaid. This experience is rolling out gradually, so some eligible users may not see it right away.

ChatGPT can help users understand and plan, but it cannot move money, pay bills, place trades, file taxes, or act as a financial, legal, tax, or investment adviser.

May 14, 2026

Codex remote access from the ChatGPT mobile app

Codex is now available in preview in the ChatGPT mobile app, so you can stay connected to active work from your phone while Codex continues running on the connected Mac host. From mobile, you can start or continue threads, answer questions, change direction, approve actions, review what Codex found, and move across connected hosts without stepping away from the work. That means you can keep an investigation moving, make a decision when Codex reaches a fork, or spin up a new idea before you are back at your desk. You can currently connect your phone to Codex running on macOS.

The mobile experience loads live context from the machine where Codex is operating, including project context, approvals, plugins, screenshots, terminal output, diffs, and test results. Codex in the ChatGPT mobile app is rolling out on iOS and Android across all plans, including Free and Go, in supported regions. To try it, update both the ChatGPT mobile app and the Codex app on macOS. Setup starts in the Codex App on the host and continues in ChatGPT after scanning a QR code; the host must remain awake, online, and running Codex for remote access to continue.

Learn more in Remote connections.

File library expands to Free and Go users, with storage management

File library is expanding to Free and Go users, including to users in the European Economic Area (EEA) making it easier to find, reuse, and build on files you upload or create in ChatGPT. You can add recent files from the composer, browse saved files in Library, and ask ChatGPT about files you’ve used before, like “What should I know about the document I uploaded yesterday?”

We’re also introducing storage management across plans. Storage includes files you upload and files created in ChatGPT, including documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and images. Limits vary by plan:

• Free: 500 MB

• Go: 4 GB

• Plus and Business: 20 GB

• Pro: 100 GB 

Generated images will continue to appear in the Images tab.

Storage management is currently available on web and you can access it from Settings > Storage; you can also delete files directly from Library.

Files remain in your Library until you delete them. Files uploaded in Temporary Chat aren’t saved to Library.

Library and ‘Recent files’ in the composer are supported on web, iOS, and Android. Learn more about File storage and Library in ChatGPT.

May 12, 2026

More images in answers for Free users

Free users in ChatGPT will now see more inline images from the web to help make visual topics easier to understand, including well-known people, places, and products. When visuals can add clarity, images may appear alongside relevant parts of an answer. You can click any image to view it at its original size and see source attribution.

This is rolling out globally on web and iOS to Free users for responses using 5.5-Instant.

May 7, 2026

Trusted contact in ChatGPT

Over the coming weeks, we'll be rolling out trusted contact, an optional safety feature for adults with personal ChatGPT accounts.

Trusted contact in ChatGPT helps you connect with a person you trust if you need additional support. You may choose your trusted contact in settings, and ChatGPT will send them an  invitation to participate. Once they accept, if automated systems and trained reviewers detect you may be talking about suicide in a way that signals a serious safety concern, ChatGPT may notify your trusted contact and encourage them to check in with you.

Trusted contact is available for eligible users with personal ChatGPT accounts in supported regions. It is not available for Business, Enterprise, or Edu workspaces.

For more information about this feature and eligibility requirements, see Trusted contact in ChatGPT and our blog post.

May 5, 2026

Memory sources and more personalized responses in ChatGPT

Starting today, we’re rolling out memory improvements to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users that make responses more personalized, useful, and continuous over time. ChatGPT can now better pull in relevant context from your past chats, saved memories, and, where available, files and connected Gmail app, to offer more tailored ideas, recommendations, and next steps. It is also faster at searching past conversations to find the right context, so you don’t have to repeat yourself as often.

We’re also introducing memory sources across all ChatGPT consumer plans, so you can see what information helped personalize a response and make edits if something is no longer relevant. Tap the Sources icon below the response to view relevant saved memories, past chats, and custom instructions. Plus and Pro users may also see files in their library and referenced emails from a connected Gmail account. If something is outdated or no longer relevant, you can correct it, delete it, or mark it as not relevant. Memory sources may not show every factor that shaped a response, and we’ll keep improving this view to make it more comprehensive over time. Memory sources are rolling out on the web and coming to mobile soon.

These updates are designed to make personalization more useful while keeping you in control. Memory sources are only shown within your account experience, and if you share a chat, those sources are not shown in the shared chat. You can delete chats, use temporary chats that do not use or update memory or appear in history, turn off memory, disconnect apps anytime, and manage whether your content is used to help improve our models.

GPT-5.5 Instant in ChatGPT

We’re rolling out GPT-5.5 Instant as ChatGPT’s new default model. It replaces GPT-5.3 Instant for all ChatGPT users and improves everyday answers across accuracy, clarity and conciseness, image understanding, STEM questions, and when ChatGPT decides to search the web.

GPT-5.5 Instant is more factually reliable, especially for prompts where accuracy matters most. It also gives tighter, more direct answers without losing useful details, asks fewer unnecessary follow-up questions, and reduces clutter like overformatting and gratuitous emojis.

For Plus and Pro users using chatgpt on web, GPT-5.5 Instant can more effectively use context from past chats, files, and Gmail, when connected, to make responses more relevant. This can help ChatGPT tailor suggestions, pick up ongoing work, and reduce the need to repeat context across conversations.

GPT-5.5 Instant is rolling out starting today to all ChatGPT users. Paid users can continue using GPT-5.3 Instant for three months through model configuration settings before it is retired.

ChatGPT for Excel and Google Sheets

ChatGPT for Excel and Google Sheets is now available globally, bringing ChatGPT into a sidebar in Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets so you can build, update, and understand spreadsheets in place. It can help with trackers, budgets, formulas, multi-tab files, scenario work, and spreadsheet cleanup, and supports Skills and apps where available.

Free and Go include limited usage; Plus and Pro use the same agentic usage limits as Codex. You can purchase additional credits if you need to go beyond plan limits.

Install ChatGPT for Excel from Microsoft Marketplace or ChatGPT from Google Workspace Marketplace, then sign in with an eligible ChatGPT account. Review outputs before relying on formulas or analysis. Learn more.

April 30, 2026

Advanced Account Security in ChatGPT

We’re rolling out Advanced Account Security, an optional setting for personal ChatGPT accounts that adds stronger sign-in requirements and stricter account safeguards to help reduce the risk of ATO (account take over), unauthorized access, and data exposure.

With Advanced Account Security enabled, ChatGPT uses stronger sign-in methods like passkeys or compatible security keys and turns off weaker paths like password sign-in, email/SMS sign-in codes, and email-based account recovery. It also adds recovery keys, shorter active sessions, login notifications, and session management controls, giving users more protection and visibility across their account.

Because these protections are stricter, recovery is also stricter. Users should save their recovery keys and keep access to their enrolled passkeys or security keys. If access to all sign-in methods and recovery keys is lost, access to the account may be lost.

Learn more: Advanced Account Security

April 28, 2026

Easier model selection in ChatGPT

We’re making it easier to choose the right model before you send a message. Model selection now appears in the composer, so you can find and switch models from the same place where you write your prompt.

We’re also moving thinking effort controls into the model picker. When you choose a Thinking or Pro model, you can select the level of thinking effort directly from the model picker.

This update is available on web to ChatGPT users on Plus, Pro, and Business plans.

April 22, 2026

Fast answers in ChatGPT

Sometimes, you just want the right answer as quickly as possible. We’re rolling out Fast answers, a quicker way to get responses to common information-seeking questions in ChatGPT, like “Show me the Seven Wonders of the World” or “Which football team has the most super bowl titles?”

When your question doesn’t require a personalized response and ChatGPT has a high-confidence answer ready, it can now respond faster while still providing a useful, in-depth answer. Fast answers do not reference your past chats or memory. 

Fast answers are available globally on web, iOS, and Android for logged in and logged out users across plans. If you prefer ChatGPT to always generate personalized answers, you can turn Fast answers off anytime in Personalization settings.

We’ll continue expanding Fast answers to more kinds of questions over time.

ChatGPT for Clinicians

We’re launching ChatGPT for Clinicians, a free version of ChatGPT for verified clinicians in the United States. It’s designed to support real clinical work at the time of care, including evidence review, documentation, and medical research, with trusted clinical search, citations, reusable skills, deep research across medical literature, and support for earning CME credits on eligible clinical questions.

If you already have a ChatGPT account, you can use that same account to sign up. After signup, ChatGPT for Clinicians appears as a separate workspace under the same login, and your existing ChatGPT workspace remains available.

For more information, please see our help article ChatGPT for Clinicians or our blog post Making ChatGPT better for clinicians.

April 21, 2026

Rolling out ads in Australia, New Zealand, and Canada

We're beginning to rollout ads for users on Free and Go plans in Australia, New Zealand, and Canada. Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Education plans do not have ads.

April 9, 2026

GPT-5.3 Instant mini in ChatGPT

Today, we’re releasing GPT-5.3 Instant Mini in ChatGPT. It replaces GPT-5 Instant Mini as the fallback model users reach after hitting their rate limits for GPT-5.3 Instant. Because it serves as a fallback, it won’t appear in the model picker.

Compared with GPT-5 Instant Mini, GPT-5.3 Instant Mini feels more natural in conversation, with stronger writing and contextual awareness throughout chats. It outperforms GPT-5 Instant Mini across a range of use cases.

New Pro plan options

We’re introducing a new $100/month Pro plan and updating how Codex usage works across Plus and Pro.

• Pro ($100/month): Built for longer, high-intensity Codex sessions. It includes unlimited access to GPT-5.4, access to GPT-5.4 Pro, and, for a limited time, up to 10x more Codex usage than Plus (up from 5X standard usage allowance).

• Pro ($200/month): Our highest-usage option remains available and continues on its current Codex promotion through May 31.

• Plus ($20/month): Plus remains best for steady, day-to-day use. As the temporary Codex promotion on Plus ends, we’re rebalancing Plus usage to support more sessions across the week, rather than longer, high-intensity sessions on a single day.

You can upgrade, switch, or cancel your plan from Settings > My Plan or from the Pricing page.

April 8, 2026

Outlook shared mailboxes and calendars in ChatGPT

The Outlook Email and Calendar apps for ChatGPT can now help with delegated or shared Outlook resources, when you have access. You can ask ChatGPT to read messages from a shared mailbox, browse its folders, mark mail read or unread, move messages, or send plain-text email from or on behalf of that mailbox. For shared Outlook calendars, ChatGPT can help create, update, RSVP to, cancel, delete, or add small attachments to events.

To use this, connect the Outlook Email or Outlook Calendar app and provide the exact shared mailbox address or target calendar when asking ChatGPT. Availability may depend on your Microsoft permissions and workspace app settings. Learn more.

April 2, 2026

ChatGPT in Apple CarPlay

We’re rolling out ChatGPT in CarPlay, giving you access to a hands-free ChatGPT experience while on-the-go.  If you have iOS 26.4 or newer and are connected to a supported car, you can start new voice conversations with ChatGPT directly from the CarPlay interface. You can also resume existing conversations you were having using voice mode in the ChatGPT mobile app. Learn more.

March 27, 2026

Updated Box, Notion, Linear, and Dropbox apps

We’re rolling out updated Box, Notion, Linear, and Dropbox apps in ChatGPT. These updates add new app actions, including new write capabilities where supported, and bring the latest app experience into ChatGPT.

If you already use these apps in ChatGPT, reconnect the app to start using the updated experience. Existing sync functionality (Pro users only) for these apps is not affected.

March 26, 2026

A simplified sidebar on mobile

To give you more space to view your most critical chats and projects, the sidebar menu is now simplified on iOS and Android. ChatGPT experiences available to you based on your plan and usage—like Images, Codex, Pulse, and Apps—now appear in a horizontal bar above your chats and projects.

Location Sharing

Users can now choose to share their device location so ChatGPT can provide more relevant information, such as local recommendations, news, and weather. Sharing your device location is completely optional and off until you choose to enable it. You can update device location sharing in Settings > Data Controls at any time.

Enabling location sharing will also enable precise location. Precise location means ChatGPT can use your device’s specific location, such as an exact address, to provide more tailored results. For example, if you ask “what are the best coffee shops near me?”, ChatGPT can use your precise location to provide more relevant nearby results. On mobile devices, you can choose to toggle off precise location separately while keeping approximate device location sharing on for additional control.

ChatGPT deletes precise location data after it’s used to provide a more relevant response. If ChatGPT’s response includes information related to your specific location, such as the names of nearby restaurants or maps, that information becomes part of your conversation like any other response and will remain in your chat history unless you delete the conversation.

Parents who have set up parental controls can choose to disable device location sharing for their teen.

Rolling out to all ChatGPT consumers plans on iOS, Android, and web.

Plugins in Codex

Codex now includes a curated plugins directory that lets users discover, install, and use packaged workflows built from apps and skills directly in Codex. Plugins are installable bundles for reusable Codex workflows, making it easier to share the same setup across projects or teams. Plugins can package skills, optional app integrations, and MCP server configurations in a single place. Learn more.

March 25, 2026

Large pastes are now handled as attachments

Starting today for ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Business users, long pastes are handled differently in ChatGPT.

If you paste more than 5k characters into the composer, ChatGPT will automatically convert the content into an attachment instead of inserting it directly into the text field. This keeps the composer cleaner and helps prevent large pastes from consuming your entire context window.

You can still move the content back into the message at any time by clicking on Show in text field to convert the attachment back to a direct paste.

Google Drive app unification

Google’s file connectors in ChatGPT are now unified under Google Drive, providing a single app experience for interacting with your Google Docs, Sheets and Slides on Google Drive.

If you’re a new user, you can connect to the Google Drive app in ChatGPT to use Google Drive, Docs, Sheets, and Slides actions, removing the need to install and authenticate separate Google file apps. If you’ve already connected to the separate apps in the past, they will continue to work as normal. You can also reconnect the Google Drive app to get the new actions - ChatGPT will switch over once you’ve done the reconnection.

For Pro users, Google Drive sync behavior is unchanged. Read more.

March 24, 2026

Shopping updates in ChatGPT

We’ve improved shopping in ChatGPT to make it easier to discover, compare, and decide on products.

Product results are now more visually rich, with improved detail and relevance. You can browse products in chat, refine results through conversation, and upload images to find similar items. Products can also be compared side by side with key details such as price, reviews, and features, making it easier to compare without opening multiple tabs.

We’ve also improved product data coverage, freshness, and speed so results are more up to date and useful. These improvements are rolling out to all ChatGPT users this week.

These updates improve how ChatGPT retrieves and presents product information from merchants and other providers using the Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP).

March 23, 2026

File Library in ChatGPT

Now, it’s easier to find, reuse, and build on your files over time. When you upload or create a file—whether it’s a PDF, spreadsheet, image, or more—it’s automatically saved to your Library. Generated images will continue to appear in the Images tab.

You can quickly reference files in a chat using recent files in the composer, or browse everything you’ve uploaded in the Library tab in the sidebar. You can also ask ChatGPT about files you’ve saved (“What should I know about the document I uploaded yesterday?”)

Library is available on web only. ‘Recent files’ in the composer and file search in ChatGPT are supported on iOS and Android.

Files remain in your Library until you delete them. Files uploaded in Temporary Chat are not saved to your Library.


Availability: Rolling out globally for Plus, Pro, and Business users, coming soon to users in the European Economic Area, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.

March 20, 2026

Codex for Students

Codex for Students is now available for verified university students in the United States and Canada. Eligible students can claim $100 in ChatGPT credits, or 2,500 credits, to extend Codex usage beyond the limits included in ChatGPT Free, Go, Plus, and Pro.

For Plus, Pro, and other paid users, GPT-5.4 mini will be used as a fallback for GPT-5.4 Thinking when rate limits are reached, helping with continued access to reasoning capabilities during high usage. Enterprise customers will retain the option to default Auto routing to GPT-5.4 mini, if preferred.


GPT-5.4 mini will not appear as a selectable model in the model picker. Learn more in our blog post.

March 17, 2026

Updates to the model picker in ChatGPT

We’ve simplified the model picker to make it easier to choose the right level of reasoning.

Users on Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Edu accounts will see a set of model options depending on their plan, including:

• Instant – fast responses for everyday questions

• Thinking – deeper reasoning for more complex tasks 

• Pro – the most advanced reasoning models 

The Auto functionality can be accessed by clicking Configure in the model picker menu and choosing "Auto-switch to Thinking.” This setting will automatically be on if your last chat was set to Auto. 

Configure more advanced settings

If you want more control, click Configure to:

• Turn automatic switching between Instant and Thinking on or off

• Access legacy models 

• Set thinking effort when Thinking or Pro is selected  

We’ve also simplified the retry menu, making it easier to regenerate responses with Thinking or Pro models by clicking on the three dots underneath the response.

Sunsetting the “Nerdy” base style

We’re sunsetting the preset Nerdy base style to simplify options and improve response quality. Users who selected it will be moved to the default personality. You can manage personality settings anytime in ChatGPT under Settings → Personalization.

March 16, 2026

GPT-5.3 Instant update

We’re rolling out an update to GPT-5.3 Instant that improves follow-up tone and reduces teaser-style phrasing in responses (e.g., “If you want…”, “You’ll never believe…”, “I can tell you these three things that…”).

March 11, 2026

Retiring GPT-5.1 models

As of March 11, 2026, GPT-5.1 models are no longer available in ChatGPT.

This applies to GPT-5.1 Instant, GPT-5.1 Thinking, and GPT-5.1 Pro. Existing conversations that used GPT-5.1 will automatically continue on the corresponding current model: GPT-5.3 Instant, GPT-5.4 Thinking, or GPT-5.4 Pro.

March 10, 2026

Interactive learning for math and science

When you ask ChatGPT about certain topics, it can now present an interactive visual module that lets you experiment with formulas and variables in real time. Adjust inputs, manipulate equations, and instantly see how changes affect graphs and outcomes—turning abstract concepts into something you can explore directly.

Interactive learning launches with 70+ math and science topics, including concepts like the Pythagorean theorem, ideal gas law, circle area, and lens equations.

Try asking:

• “Help me understand the Pythagorean theorem.”

• “Explain how PV = nRT works.”

• “How do I find the area of a circle?”

Availability: Rolling out to all logged-in ChatGPT users across consumer and business plans.

Auto top-up for flexible usage credits

Eligible ChatGPT Plus and Pro users can now turn on auto top-up for credits used with Codex and Sora. Auto top-up automatically replenishes your shared credit balance when it falls below the minimum balance you choose, using your default payment method on file to purchase only the amount needed to reach your target balance.

You can manage auto top-up from Codex Settings → Usage Dashboard. Auto top-up applies to the same shared credit balance used across supported features like Codex and Sora, and if your balance is already below your selected minimum when you turn it on, a top-up may happen right away. Learn more: Using Credits for Flexible Usage in ChatGPT (Free/Go/Plus/Pro) & Sora.

GPT-5.4 Thinking in ChatGPT

GPT‑5.4 brings together the best of our recent advances in reasoning, coding, and agentic workflows into a single frontier model. It incorporates the industry-leading coding capabilities of GPT‑5.3‑Codex⁠ while improving how the model works across tools, software environments, and professional tasks involving spreadsheets, presentations, and documents. The result is a model that gets complex real work done accurately, effectively, and efficiently—delivering what you asked for with less back and forth.

In ChatGPT, GPT‑5.4 Thinking can now provide an upfront plan of its thinking, so you can adjust course mid-response while it’s working, and arrive at a final output that’s more closely aligned with what you need without additional turns. GPT‑5.4 Thinking improves deep web research, particularly for highly specific queries, while better maintaining context for questions that require longer thinking. GPT‑5.4 Thinking also has improved context window management that supports its ability to think for longer. Together, these improvements mean higher-quality answers that arrive faster and stay relevant to the task at hand.

March 4, 2026

Codex app on Windows

The Codex app is now available on Windows for ChatGPT plans that include Codex. The app gives users a Windows desktop surface for running multiple Codex agents in parallel, with isolated worktrees and reviewable diffs that can be edited, discarded, or turned into a pull request.

Users can sign in with ChatGPT from the app and keep work moving across the app, CLI, and IDE without switching between tools for every task. Learn more: Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan.

March 3, 2026

GPT-5.3 Instant Update

GPT‑5.3 Instant delivers more accurate answers, richer and better-contextualized results when searching the web, and reduces unnecessary dead ends, caveats, and overly declarative phrasing that can interrupt the flow of conversation.

This update focuses on the parts of the ChatGPT experience people feel every day: tone, relevance, and conversational flow. These are nuanced problems that don’t always show up in benchmarks, but shape whether ChatGPT feels helpful or frustrating. GPT‑5.3 Instant directly reflects user feedback in these areas.

February 27, 2026

• Cleaner “Select All” behavior (Cmd+A). Cmd+A now selects only the conversation content, excluding surrounding interface elements for cleaner copying and sharing of chat transcripts.

Android

• Quick tools in the composer. A new quick-tools menu in the message composer makes common actions easier to access.

• Simplified composer. The message composer has been streamlined to reduce visual complexity and make it easier to focus on your message.

iOS

• Performance improvements. We’ve made multiple performance enhancements to improve responsiveness and overall speed throughout the app.

Web, iOS, and Android

• Improved reliability for long “Thinking” chats. We've reduced interruption rates in longer “Thinking” chats through infrastructure improvements.

ChatGPT Voice Update

We’re making an update to ChatGPT Voice that improves its ability to follow user instructions, and usage of tools like web search to provide better responses. This update applies to the version of Voice primarily used by those on the free ChatGPT plan, and by Plus users when limits are reached for the main model.

February 10, 2026

Updates to deep research

We’re introducing improvements to deep research in ChatGPT to help produce more accurate, credible reports with greater control. You can now focus research on specific websites and a larger collection of connected apps as trusted sources. 

A redesigned sidebar entry point and fullscreen report view make it easier to start, review, and manage research in one place. Create and edit a research plan before it begins, and track progress with the ability to adjust direction mid-run.

Rolling out throughout today to Plus and Pro users, with Free and Go users following in the coming days.

For more information, please refer to our help center article: Deep research in ChatGPT

GPT-5.2 Instant Update

We’re making an update to GPT-5.2 Instant in ChatGPT and the API that improves response style and quality.

Users should notice responses that are more measured and grounded in tone, in a way that’s more contextually appropriate to the conversation. The model also tends to output clearer, more relevant answers to advice-seeking and how-to questions, more reliably placing the most important info upfront.

February 9, 2026

Testing ads in ChatGPT (Free, Go)

We’re beginning to roll out a test for ads in ChatGPT in the U.S. for logged-in adults on the Free and Go tiers. Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Education plans do not have ads. The test will be a subset of users to start. We will expand over the coming weeks as we learn from this test.

ChatGPT’s answers are generated independently from advertising. Answers are optimized based on what’s most helpful to you. When you see an ad, they are always clearly labeled as sponsored and visually separated from the organic answer.

Ads are shown using information that stays within ChatGPT and is not shared with advertisers. This includes what you’re discussing, how you interact with ads (such as ads you hide or engage with), and your past chats and memories, if you have ads personalization enabled. You’re in control of this experience: you can dismiss ads, share feedback, learn how and why you’re being shown an ad, delete your ad data with one tap, and manage ad personalization at any time.

Advertisers never see your chats or personal details and receive only aggregated performance information, like impressions and clicks. During the test, ads do not appear in chats about sensitive topics or regulated topics, including health, mental health, or politics, and are not shown to users who tell us or we predict are under 18.

February 4, 2026

Update on thinking time settings for GPT-5.2 Thinking in ChatGPT

Jan 10, 2026: We lowered the Standard and Light thinking time as we observed users prefer faster responses. As part of this update, the Extended thinking setting for GPT-5.2 was unintentionally changed to be lower which we have now fixed.

February 3, 2026: We made another small reduction to Standard thinking time based on testing.

February 4, 2026: We’re restoring the Extended thinking level for GPT-5.2 Thinking to its prior setting, correcting the inadvertent reduction from January. Extended is now back to its prior level.

We periodically adjust the default thinking time for our reasoning models. These changes are based on ongoing experiments to find the best balance between answer quality and response speed for users.

The thinking level toggle introduced in September 2025 gives users more choice beyond Standard, allowing them to select the right thinking level for their question—whether they want lighter, faster responses or more extended reasoning when depth and accuracy matter more.

Thinking time is not directly comparable across different models. Each model is tuned independently to what works best for users. We’ll continue to adjust these settings as models evolve, and will keep giving users clear controls when there are meaningful tradeoffs to choose from.

February 2, 2026

Introducing the Codex app

Today we’re releasing the Codex app for MacOS,  a command center for managing multiple coding agents in parallel. The app lets you run long‑horizon and background tasks, review clean diffs from isolated worktrees, see agent progress and decisions, and execute reusable skills and automations. 

Available with ChatGPT plans that include Codex, with a limited‑time promo: Free and Go can try Codex with included limits, while Plus, and Pro users get 2x Codex rate limits. 

Get started by downloading the macOS app, and learn more about Codex. 

January 30, 2026

More visual responses

Responses in ChatGPT are now more visual and easier to scan.

For everyday questions, responses may include at-a-glance visuals—like checking your team’s latest stats, converting units, or doing a quick calculation.

Answers now also highlight important people, places, products, and ideas. You can tap any highlight to open a side panel with key facts and trusted sources, making it easy to understand the context without asking follow-up questions. 

Rolling out globally on iOS, Android, web.

January 29, 2026

Retiring GPT-4o and other legacy models

On February 13, 2026, alongside the previously announced retirement⁠ of GPT‑5 (Instant and Thinking), we will retire GPT‑4o, GPT‑4.1, GPT‑4.1 mini, and OpenAI o4-mini from ChatGPT. In the API, there are no changes at this time. For more, see our blog post or help center.

January 26, 2026

Improvements to search response quality in Voice

We’ve improved search responses in ChatGPT Voice to deliver more complete, up-to-date answers, including better access to shopping results.

January 22, 2026

5.2 Personality System Prompt Update

We’re updating GPT-5.2 Instant’s default personality to be more conversational and better at adapting its tone contextually, making exchanges feel smoother and more natural. You can still select a different base style and tone for ChatGPT, along with tuning characteristics like warmth and emoji use, within the Personalization menu in settings.

January 20, 2026

Voice Updates

We’re making an update to ChatGPT Voice for paid users that improves its ability to follow user instructions, as well as fixes a bug where Voice can sometimes repeat back custom instructions.

Rolling out age prediction

We're rolling out an age prediction model on ChatGPT consumer plans to help determine whether an account likely belongs to someone under 18, so we can apply the right experience and safeguards for teens. 

The model looks at a combination of behavioral and account-level signals, including how long an account has existed, typical times of day when someone is active, usage patterns over time, and a user’s stated age.

If an adult is placed in the under-18 experience by mistake, they can quickly verify their age with a selfie through Persona, a verification service available in Settings > Account. Users can check whether safeguards have been added and verify at any time.

January 15, 2026

Improved memory for finding details from past chats (Plus & Pro)

When reference chat history is enabled, ChatGPT can now more reliably find specific details from your past chats when you ask. Any past chat used to answer your question now appears as a source so you can open and review the original context.

This memory improvement is now available for Plus and Pro users globally.

January 12, 2026

Dictation Updates

We’re improving our dictation capabilities in ChatGPT for all logged-in users, significantly reducing empty transcriptions and improving accuracy.

January 7, 2026

Health in ChatGPT

We’re starting to roll out Health, a dedicated space in ChatGPT for health and wellness conversations. You can securely connect medical records, Apple Health and supported wellness apps so answers can be grounded in your own data. Health is designed to help you navigate medical care, not replace it. Health conversations, memory, and files are kept separate from the rest of ChatGPT and are not used to train our foundation models.

Health appears as a new space in the ChatGPT sidebar. If you ask a health-related question in a regular chat, ChatGPT may also suggest continuing in Health. If you’re interested in getting access as it becomes available, you can sign up for the waitlist. We’re starting by providing access to a small group of early users to learn and continue refining the experience. At launch, Health is available on web and iOS, with Android coming soon to ChatGPT Free, Go, Plus, and Pro users in supported countries (excluding the EEA, Switzerland, and the UK).

Learn more in the blog or help center article.

December 22, 2025

Your Year with ChatGPT

Today we’re rolling out Your Year with ChatGPT, an optional, personalized end-of-year experience that reflects on how you interacted with ChatGPT in 2025. It highlights high-level themes from your conversations and includes summary statistics about your usage over the year.

This experience is rolling out gradually throughout the day, so it may not be available to everyone immediately. It’s available to Free, Plus, and Pro users in United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand as well as Go, Plus, and Pro users in India, and is not available on Business, Enterprise, or Edu plans.

To see Your Year with ChatGPT, Memory and Reference Chat History must be turned on, and you must meet a minimum activity threshold. If you have very limited activity, you’ll only see basic chat statistics.

At launch, this experience is available in English in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

December 19, 2025

New detailed characteristic controls

In addition to selecting a base style and tone preset—like candid and friendly—you can now adjust specific characteristics individually.  From the ‘personalization’ pane in settings, you can adjust ChatGPT to:

• Be more or less warm

• Be more or less enthusiastic

• Use more or fewer headers & lists

• Use more or fewer emojis

December 18, 2025

Introducing the app directory in ChatGPT

You can now browse and add approved apps in the new app directory. Apps let you work with your tools and data directly inside a conversation—from interactive in-chat experiences to secure connections that allow ChatGPT to search and reference information from third-party services.

As part of this update, connectors now appear in the directory as apps, making it easier to manage all your tools in one place. References across the Help Center have been updated to reflect this new terminology.

Apps are available to all logged-in ChatGPT users, with availability and functionality varying by plan and region. Some apps or capabilities may not be available in certain regions or may require specific plan tiers.

Additionally, developers can submit apps for review and publication in the app directory, making approved apps available to a broader set of ChatGPT users.

Pinned chats in ChatGPT

You can now pin chats to the top of your list for quick access to important conversations. Pinned chats are available on iOS, Android, Web, and Atlas.On web, hover over a chat in the left-hand sidebar, click ⋯, and select Pin chat. On mobile, long-press a chat and select Pin chat.

December 17, 2025

Tasks are now in Pulse

Tasks let you set up automated prompts that ChatGPT can run for you.

You can now manage all your tasks directly in Pulse:

• See all tasks in one place in Pulse.

• Create tasks in chat or in Pulse—whatever’s easier in the moment.

Edit and review tasks in Pulse anytime after you create them.
Please note that Pulse is only available in ChatGPT Pro.

ChatGPT Images on Web and Mobile (iOS & Android)

We’ve introduced a new and improved version of ChatGPT Images, powered by our best image generation model yet. With ChatGPT Images, precise instruction following and editing makes AI image creation not just more fun, but meaningfully more useful—from everyday edits to creative transformations.

All images you create with ChatGPT are automatically saved under My images at https://chatgpt.com/images, giving you a single place to browse, revisit, and reuse your work without having to sift through past conversations.

Learn more about ChatGPT Images in our ChatGPT Images FAQ.

Available on Free, Go, Plus, Edu, and Pro plans. Business and Enterprise are coming soon!

December 11, 2025

Voice on macOS desktop app is retiring (effective January 15, 2026)

We’re retiring the Voice experience in the ChatGPT macOS app on January 15, 2026. This change allows us to focus on more unified and improved voice experiences across our apps.

• Voice will continue to be available on chatgpt.com, iOS, Android, and Windows app.

• No other ChatGPT features on macOS are affected.

December 11, 2025

Today, we’re releasing GPT-5.2, the next upgrade to the GPT-5 series. GPT-5.2 is smarter and more useful for both work and learning—while remaining just as enjoyable to talk to. As with GPT-5.1, we’re continuing to improve our main models for everyone on a regular basis to make them more useful and enjoyable to use.


GPT-5.2 Instant is a fast yet powerful workhorse for everyday work and learning, with clear improvements in info-seeking questions, how-tos and walk-throughs, technical writing, and translation, all while retaining the warmer, more conversational tone introduced in GPT-5.1 Instant. Early testers noted its more clearly structured explanations where important info is highlighted upfront. It’s also more effective at supporting studying and skill-building, as well as offering clearer job and career guidance.


GPT-5.2 Thinking solves harder work tasks more effectively and with more polish—particularly in spreadsheet formatting and financial modeling, alongside improvements in slideshow creation. Early testing showed gains in coding, summarizing long documents, answering questions about uploaded files, walking through complex math and logic step by step, and helping with planning and decision-making with clearer structure and thoughtful detail.


GPT-5.2 Pro is our smartest and most trustworthy model yet for difficult questions where a higher-quality answer is worth the wait. In early testing, it shows fewer major errors and stronger performance across complex domains like programming.

All three models (Instant, Thinking, and Pro) have a new knowledge cutoff of August 2025. For users, this means GPT-5.2 starts with a more current understanding of the world, so answers are more accurate and useful, with more relevant examples and context, even before turning to web search.

Read our blog for more details on examples and evals. 


Update for free and Go users: We’re removing automatic model switching for reasoning in ChatGPT. Previously, some questions were automatically routed to the Thinking model when ChatGPT determined it might help. To maximize choice, free users will now use GPT-5.2 Instant by default, and can still choose to use reasoning anytime by selecting Thinking from the tools menu in the message composer.

November 25, 2025

An improved Voice interface: the audio you know, with text and visuals when you need them.

We’re making ChatGPT Voice a seamless part of the ChatGPT experience, so you can use voice right inside the chat interface you already use every day—no separate mode required.

Many of you have asked for a more flexible Voice experience—now, you can speak, listen, and see your conversation at the same time. Answers will be spoken alongside streamed text, image search results, widgets (maps, weather, etc.) and more—right in the same chat thread.

This makes voice chats clearer, richer and more contextual by pairing spoken answers with visual context. You can:

• Follow along with typed answers as you listen

• See visual search results like images, charts, and map cards in real time

• Refer back to earlier messages without interrupting the conversation

• Type back when you can’t talk and still get a Voice response

• Share photos to discuss them out loud

This means Voice can better adapt to your day and meet you where you are, whether you're practicing a language and seeing words spelled out, need to refer to a measurement while cooking hands-free, or talking through a chart or code sample where visuals help.

This update is rolling out to all users globally on the ChatGPT mobile app and chatgpt.com. If you prefer the original Voice experience, you can switch back anytime by going to Settings and turning on “Separate mode” under Voice Mode. We’ll continue listening and refining this experience as we build toward Voice interactions that are both integrated and immersive.

November 24, 2025

Shopping research in ChatGPT

Shopping research is a new interactive experience that helps you find the right products without doing all the research yourself. Describe what you need—like a quiet cordless vacuum for a small apartment, a gift for a four‑year‑old who loves art, or a way to choose between three bikes—and ChatGPT will ask clarifying questions, research deeply across the internet, review quality sources, and build on ChatGPT’s understanding of you from past conversations and memory to return a personalized buyer’s guide with options, tradeoffs, and links to buy.

ChatGPT learns what you like through an interactive interface allowing you to guide the research based on your real-time feedback.

Shopping research is available on ChatGPT Web, iOS, and Android for logged‑in Free, Go, Plus, and Pro users. To help with holiday shopping, we’re making usage nearly unlimited across plans through the season. To learn more, visit the blog.

November 21, 2025

More images in answers

ChatGPT now adds more inline images from the web to help you quickly understand topics like well-known people, places, and products. When visuals can add clarity, you’ll see images placed beside the relevant paragraph. You can click on any of the images to see them in original dimensions and with the source attribution.

These improvements are gradually rolling out globally across all ChatGPT plans, on web, iOS, and Android for responses using GPT 5.1.

November 20, 2025

Instant Checkout now rolling out to Shopify merchants

You can now find and buy from Shopify merchants starting with Spanx, Skims, and Glossier through Instant Checkout in ChatGPT.

When a product from a Shopify merchant supports Instant Checkout, you can complete the purchase right in the
chat with a quick confirmation of your shipping and payment details.

Instant Checkout is available for logged in Plus, Pro, and Free users in the US.

November 19, 2025

GPT-5.1 Pro: Clearer, more capable answers for complex work

Today we’re updating GPT-5 Pro to GPT-5.1 Pro. In early testing, users consistently preferred GPT-5.1 Pro over GPT-5 Pro, rating it especially highly for writing help, data science, and business questions. Testers highlighted the model’s improved clarity, relevance, and structure in its responses.

GPT-5.1 Pro is rolling out today for all ChatGPT Pro users and is available in the model picker. GPT-5 Pro will remain available as a legacy model for 90 days before being retired.

November 13, 2025

Group chats in ChatGPT

We’re piloting group chats so you can bring people - and ChatGPT - into the same conversation. Plan trips, make decisions, and collaborate on projects together while ChatGPT helps search, summarize, generate content, and keep everyone on the same page.

Group chats are starting to roll out on ChatGPT Web, iOS, and Android in New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. We’ll use early feedback from this pilot to improve the experience and inform how we expand to more regions and plans over time. To learn more visit the blog.

November 12, 2025

GPT-5.1 in ChatGPT

We’re updating GPT-5 to GPT-5.1 Instant and GPT-5.1 Thinking, making answers both smarter and more conversational. GPT-5.1 Instant now uses light adaptive reasoning for tougher questions while staying fast, and GPT-5.1 Thinking adapts its thinking time more precisely for complex tasks with clearer, less jargony responses.

GPT-5.1 Auto continues to route each query to the best model, and GPT-5 models remain available for three months under the Legacy models dropdown so you can compare and transition at your own pace.

GPT-5.1 Instant and Thinking are rolling out first to paid (Pro, Plus, Go, Business) users, then to free and logged-out users, with Enterprise and Edu getting a temporary early-access toggle; GPT-5.1 will also be available soon in the API as gpt-5.1-chat-latest (Instant) and gpt-5.1 (Thinking).

New tone and personalization controls

We’re updating ChatGPT’s tone controls so it’s easier to make responses sound the way you prefer. You can now choose from updated presets like Default, Friendly, Efficient, Professional, Candid, and Quirky (with Cynical and Nerdy still available), and we’re experimenting with more granular controls over how concise, warm, or scannable responses are, plus how often emojis appear.

Changes you make in Personalization now apply across all chats immediately (including existing conversations), and GPT-5.1 models follow your custom instructions and style preferences more reliably.

November 7, 2025

Personality and custom instructions now apply to all chats

Previously, changes you made to your ChatGPT personality or custom instructions only applied to new conversations. Starting today, updates you make in Settings → Personalization are applied immediately across all chats (including existing conversations!) so your experience stays consistent everywhere without needing to start a new thread.

November 5, 2025

Interrupt ChatGPT

You can now interrupt long-running queries (such as deep research or GPT-5 Pro) to refine what you’re asking—no restart required or progress lost. For example, if you're researching the perfect bookshelf and suddenly remember that your wall is 72" wide and you can't drill into it, you can simply add that information midstream by clicking “update” in the sidebar and sending the new information as a message. The model will adjust its approach based on your new requirements.

November 3, 2025

October 23, 2025

Shared projects

Starting today, project sharing is available to all ChatGPT users, including for Free, Plus, Pro, and Go users globally on web, iOS, and Android.

ChatGPT can draw from anything in the shared project – including chats, uploaded files and custom instructions – so responses are informed by your group's internal knowledge, and you can pick up where others left off.

Shared projects are ideal for:

• Group work: Upload notes, proposals, and contracts so collaborators can draft deliverables faster and stay in sync.

• Content creation: Apply project-specific instructions to keep tone and style consistent across contributors.

• Reporting: Store datasets and reports in one project, and return each week to generate updates without starting over.

• Research: Keep transcripts, survey results, and market research in one place, so anyone in the project can query and build on the findings.

Project owners can choose to share a project with “Only those invited” or “Anyone with a link,” and can change visibility settings at any time including switching back to invite-only. The following collaboration limits apply:

• Pro users: up to 40 files and 100 collaborators

• Plus and Go users: up to 25 files and 10 collaborators

• Free users: up to 5 files and 5 collaborators

October 22, 2025

We’re updating the model for signed-out users to GPT-5 Instant, giving more people access to higher-quality responses by default. See here to learn more about the intelligence of GPT-5.

October 15, 2025

ChatGPT can now automatically manage saved memories so it’s even better at remembering what’s important to you.

ChatGPT now manages saved memories automatically by keeping the most relevant details prioritized and moving less important ones to the background. This helps prevent saved memories from reaching capacity and helps avoid “memory full” state in your ChatGPT account.

To decide which memories stay top of mind, ChatGPT considers factors such as how recent a detail is and how often you talk about a topic. You can now also search your saved memories more easily and sort them by newest or oldest.

You’re always in control: you can turn off automatic memory management at any time, and you can see which memories are currently top of mind and choose to prioritize or deprioritize any specific memory yourself in settings. You can also view and restore prior versions of saved memories.

These updates are designed to make saved memory feel seamless, reliable, and easy to manage. We’re beginning to roll this out to Plus and Pro users globally on the web.

October 14, 2025

Learn more about ChatGPT Go.

October 13, 2025

Slack connector and app

We’re rolling out two new ways to bring Slack and ChatGPT together: a connector that brings your Slack context into ChatGPT, and a ChatGPT app for Slack – an integration that enables you to chat with ChatGPT from inside Slack.

With the ChatGPT app for Slack, you can chat one-on-one with ChatGPT in a dedicated Slack sidebar – a space to ask questions, summarize long threads into action items, draft replies, and search messages and files you already have access to. Chats you start in Slack also appear in your ChatGPT sidebar, so it’s easy to pick up later from web or mobile. Semantic search is supported for Slack customers with AI enabled on Business+ or Enterprise+ plans; all other plans use keyword search.

With the ChatGPT connector for Slack, you can securely bring in context from your Slack channels and DMs, making responses more helpful Available in chat, Deep Research, and Agent Mode. Users can enable from Settings > Apps & Connectors.

Both app and connector are available to Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise/Edu customers. Additionally, the ChatGPT app for Slack requires a paid Slack account; availability and workspace installation may depend on your Slack workspace settings.

Installing the app requires the connector to be enabled for your account.

Visit the ChatGPT app for Slack page to get started with installation.

October 9, 2025

Adding Notion & Linear synced connectors

We're adding Notion and Linear as synced connectors (for Pro users), so you can securely bring Notion pages and Linear issues/discussions into Chat for fast answers and summaries. You can enable sync for Notion and Linear from your Connector settings (connect to Notion or Linear if you haven’t already, first). Once synced, ChatGPT will automatically reference the indexed content when relevant. Learn more about synced connectors.

Updates to Codex

We’re rolling out new Codex capabilities to help teams work and build better: Codex now works in Slack, and supports programmatic control through the Codex SDK. Additionally, we've updated Codex rates.

For more information, review our Help Center article on Codex, and the Codex developer documentation.

October 3, 2025

Updating GPT-5

We’re updating GPT-5 Instant to better recognize and support people in moments of distress.

The model is trained to more accurately detect and respond to potential signs of mental and emotional distress. These updates were guided by mental health experts, and help ChatGPT de-escalate conversations and point people to real-world crisis resources when appropriate, while still using language that feels supportive and grounding.

As we shared in a recent blog, we've been using our real-time router to direct sensitive parts of conversations—such as those showing signs of acute distress—to reasoning models. GPT-5 Instant now performs just as well as GPT-5 Thinking on these types of questions. When GPT-5 Auto or a non-reasoning model is selected, we'll instead route these conversations to GPT-5 Instant to more quickly provide helpful and beneficial responses. ChatGPT will continue to tell users which model is active when asked.

This update to GPT-5 Instant is starting to roll out to ChatGPT users today. We’re continuing to work on improvements and will keep updating the model to make it smarter and safer over time.

September 29, 2025

Parental Controls

We’re rolling out parental controls globally in ChatGPT to help families guide how ChatGPT works in their homes. Available starting on the web today, mobile soon.

To set up parental controls, a parent or guardian sends an invite to their teen to connect accounts. After the teen accepts, the parent can manage the teen’s settings from their own account. Teens can also invite a parent to connect.

Once a teen is connected to a parent’s account, they automatically receive additional content protections, such as reduced graphic content and viral challenges. Parents will have the option to turn this setting off if they choose, but teen users cannot make changes.

Parents don’t have access to their teen’s conversations, except in rare cases where our system and trained reviewers detect possible signs of serious safety risk, parents may be notified — but only with the information needed to support their teen’s safety. Parents can choose if they’d like to be contacted by email, SMS, push notification, or all three.

Parents can adjust certain features, set time limits, and add safeguards that work for their family including:

• Set quiet hours, or specific times when ChatGPT can’t be used.

• Turn off voice mode, to remove the option to use voice mode in ChatGPT.

• Turn off memory, so ChatGPT won’t save and use memories when responding.

• Remove image generation, so ChatGPT won’t have the ability to create or edit images.

• Opt out of model training, so their teen’s conversations won’t be used to improve models powering ChatGPT and Sora.

Introducing Instant Checkout and the Agentic Commerce Protocol

We’re introducing Instant Checkout in ChatGPT and the Agentic Commerce Protocol that powers it, built with Stripe.

ChatGPT can help you find anything on the web and now with Instant Checkout, you can seamlessly buy directly from the merchant, right in chat. Starting today, U.S. ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Free users can buy directly from U.S. Etsy sellers through ChatGPT, with over 1 million Shopify merchants, like Glossier, SKIMS, Spanx and Vuori, coming soon.

Instant Checkout

Instant Checkout makes it easy to go from chat to checkout in just a few taps.

• Ask ChatGPT a shopping question and it finds organic, unsponsored product results from across the web.

• Choose an item and ChatGPT shows where to buy, ranking merchants by factors like inventory, price, quality, primary seller status, and Instant Checkout availability.

• If Instant Checkout is offered, tap Buy, confirm shipping and payment details, and pay in one tap with your card on file or other express pay options.

• If Instant Checkout isn’t available, ChatGPT provides a direct link so you can purchase from the merchant’s site.

You’re in control at all times and give explicit confirmation to purchase. Payment goes directly from you to the merchant, not through OpenAI. Learn more about Instant Checkout.

Agentic Commerce Protocol

The Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP) gives merchants and developers a way to build agentic commerce experiences that work with their current systems and connect them with 700M+ weekly active users on ChatGPT.

If you’re a merchant and want to add Instant Checkout in ChatGPT, apply on our merchant page. We’ll be accepting and onboarding merchants on a rolling basis.

Developers can start exploring the Agentic Commerce Protocol documentation and example implementations on GitHub.

Introducing ChatGPT Pulse for Pro users

We’re launching an early preview of ChatGPT pulse for Pro users on iOS and Android. This is a new experience where ChatGPT can now proactively deliver personalized, focused updates for you once a day. These updates are based on asynchronous research ChatGPT can do on your behalf overnight, synthesizing information from your memory, chat history, and direct feedback to learn what’s most relevant to you.

Updates are delivered once a day as visual summaries you can scan at a glance or dive deeper into. Each topic opens into more detail where you can ask follow-up questions. You can shape what shows up in pulse with a quick thumbs up or down, or by using curate to tell ChatGPT what you’d like to see.

If you ask for something new in the evening, we aim to include it the next morning, though exact timing may vary. Pulse refreshes daily, and you can save any item into a chat to keep it.

As a preview, pulse has some limitations. It aims to show you what’s most relevant and useful but you may still see suggestions that miss the mark. For example, you may get tips for a project you already completed. You can guide what shows up by telling ChatGPT directly. It remembers your feedback for next time and improves as it learns from real use.

It requires saved memory and chat history to be turned on, and you can switch pulse off anytime in settings. See ChatGPT Pulse.

Voice Updates

We’re improving the quality and latency of responses of the version of Advanced Voice powered by GPT-4o mini.

September 17, 2025

Toggle thinking time in the message composer

What’s new

We’re giving Plus, Business, and Pro users more control over how long GPT-5 thinks before responding. You can now choose the level of reasoning time, so you can decide whether you want a quicker answer or more in-depth reasoning for your task.

How it works

When you select GPT-5 with Thinking in ChatGPT, you’ll see a new thinking time toggle in the message composer.

• Standard (new default, balancing speed and intelligence) and Extended (the previous default for Plus) are available to all Plus, Business users

• Pro users get two additional options: Light (snappiest) and Heavy (deeper reasoning).

• All queries default to Standard unless you choose to change it. Once you choose a different thinking time, your preference is saved and used for future queries until you switch again.

Why we’re making this change

We’ve heard from some of you that GPT-5 Thinking’s answers can take longer than you’d like. Now you can decide what you need in the moment:

• Light / Standard → quicker answers that still apply reasoning, balancing speed and intelligence.

• Extended / Heavy → more time for deeper, more comprehensive responses when the stakes are higher or the question is more difficult.

What’s next

The thinking-time toggle is live today on chatgpt.com. Settings you choose on the web won’t yet sync to mobile, but we’ll bring this control to our iOS and Android apps in the coming weeks.

September 16, 2025

Improvements to search in ChatGPT

We’ve made further improvements to search in ChatGPT, making results more accurate, reliable, and useful.

• Factuality: Fewer hallucinations, improving answer quality.

• Shopping: Search is better at detecting shopping intent, showing products when you want them and keeping results focused when you don’t.

• Formatting: Answers are better formatted for quick understanding without losing detail or quality.

September 15, 2025

Personalization settings are now in Settings

Personalization no longer opens in a separate modal. You can manage personalization, choose a ChatGPT personality, add custom instructions, and update Memory directly in Settings → Personalization.

Updates to Codex (Plus/Pro) - Introducing GPT-5-Codex

We’re adding GPT-5-codex, a GPT-5 variant optimized for agentic coding in Codex. It’s available everywhere you use Codex: default for cloud tasks and code review, and selectable for local workflows via the Codex CLI and IDE extension. Use GPT-5-codex for coding-focused work in Codex, or Codex-like environments; use GPT-5 for general, non-coding tasks. Please review the announcement blog for more information.

Note: GPT-5-Codex is not currently supported in ChatGPT or the API.

To learn more about Codex, visit the developers site as well as our general help article: Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan.

September 9, 2025

ChatGPT Voice Update

Last month we announced that everyone now has access to Advanced Voice Mode, with usage expanded from minutes per day to hours for Free users, and near-unlimited use for Plus.

We also shared that Standard Voice Mode would be retired following a 30-day sunset period. We’ve heard feedback that Standard Voice is special to some folks, and we want to make sure the transition feels right. To that end, we’re keeping Standard Voice available while we address some feedback from its users about Advanced Voice.

Stay tuned—more improvements to Voice are coming soon.

September 4, 2025

Branch conversations on web

You can now branch conversations in ChatGPT, making it easier to explore different directions without losing your original thread. Hover over a message, click More actions (⋯), and select Branch in new chat to start a separate conversation from that point.

This feature is available today for all logged-in users on web.

September 3, 2025

Projects Now Available on ChatGPT Free Tier

August 27, 2025

Updates to Codex (Plus/Pro)

Starting today, Codex works with you everywhere you build—in your terminal or IDE, on the web, in GitHub, and even from the ChatGPT iOS app. Your ChatGPT account connects it all, so you can work seamlessly between your local environment and Codex’s cloud without losing state.

We’re excited to introduce the latest Codex updates:

• IDE Extension: The new extension brings codex into VS Code, Cursor, and other VS Code forks, so that you can seamlessly preview local changes and edit code

• Sign in with ChatGPT: Available in both the IDE and CLI, eliminating API key setup and providing access directly through your existing ChatGPT plan

• Seamless Local ↔ Cloud Handoff: Developers can pair with Codex locally and then delegate tasks to the cloud to execute asynchronously without losing state

• Upgraded Codex CLI: Refreshed UI, new commands, and bug fixes

• Code reviews in GitHub: Set up Codex to automatically review new PRs in a repo, or mention @codex in PRs to get reviews and suggested fixes

Additionally, all product information and updates for Codex moving forward will be announced on our new site: developers.openai.com/codex.

We invite you to explore the site for more details on these new features, as well as guides on how to get started.

To learn more about Codex, visit the new developers site as well as our general help article: Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan.

August 22, 2025

Project-only memory

An improvement to projects is now available. When creating a project, users have the option to enable project-only memory.

With project-only memory enabled, ChatGPT can use other conversations in that project for additional context, and won’t use your saved memories from outside the project to shape responses. Additionally, it won’t carry anything from the project into future chats outside of the project.

This creates a focused, self-contained space, which is useful for long-running or sensitive work where you want ChatGPT to stay anchored to that project’s tone, context, and history.

Note:

• Personal Memory must be enabled to utilize this feature.

  • Settings -> Personalization -> Memory

• This feature will initially only be available on the ChatGPT website and Windows app. Support for mobile (iOS and Android) and macOS app will follow in the coming weeks.

Learn more about memory in projects.

August 18, 2025

Introducing ChatGPT Go

We’re launching ChatGPT Go, a new low-cost subscription plan. This will initially be available for users in India only.

• More messages, larger file uploads, and expanded image generation

• Access to advanced data analysis

• Longer memory for more personalized responses

Available on web, mobile (iOS & Android), and desktop (macOS & Windows).

ChatGPT Go is geo-restricted to India at launch, and is able to be subscribed to by credit card or UPI.

Learn more about ChatGPT Go.

August 15, 2025

GPT-5 Updates

We’re making GPT-5’s default personality warmer and more familiar. This is in response to user feedback that the initial version of GPT-5 came across as too reserved and professional. The differences in personality should feel subtle but create a noticeably more approachable ChatGPT experience.

Warmth here means small acknowledgements that make interactions feel more personable — for example, “Good question,” “Great start,” or briefly recognizing the user’s circumstances when relevant. This is different from sycophancy, which we define as excessive flattery that can feel insincere. You can find more about our learnings on reducing sycophancy here.

This update does not show an increase in sycophancy compared to the previous personality of GPT-5, measured by the same internal evals we ran and detailed in our system card. Teaching models to be warm without being sycophantic is an ongoing research challenge, and we will continue iterating to get this right. More updates are coming soon.

August 13, 2025

Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Contacts Connectors in ChatGPT (Plus)

Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Contacts Connectors in ChatGPT are now available to Plus users globally. Access will be granted to users throughout today.

This was previously made available to Pro users on August 12, 2025.

Learn more about connectors.

August 12, 2025

GPT-5 Updates

You can now choose between “Auto”, “Fast”, and “Thinking” for GPT-5. Most users will want Auto, but the additional control will be useful for some people.

ChatGPT Plus users now have 3,000 messages/week with GPT-5 Thinking, and then extra capacity on GPT-5 Thinking mini after that limit. The context limit for GPT-5 Thinking is 196k tokens. We may have to update rate limits over time depending on usage.

4o is back in the model picker for all paid users by default. Paid users also now have a “Show additional models” toggle in ChatGPT web settings which will add models like o3, o4-mini, 4.1, and GPT-5 Thinking mini. 4.5 is only available to Pro users due to GPUs.

Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Contacts Connectors in ChatGPT (Pro)

Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Contacts are now available to connect and use in chat. Once you enable them, ChatGPT will automatically reference them when relevant, making it faster and easier to bring information from these tools into your conversations without having to manually select them each time.

This capability is part of GPT-5 and will begin rolling out to Pro users globally this week, followed by Plus, Team, Enterprise, and Edu plans in the coming weeks. To enable, visit Settings → Connectors→ Connect on the application.

If you already have Gmail or Google Calendar enabled for deep research, you can now also use them in chat. To use them in deep research, you will still need to enable each connector separately and select it every time you start a new deep research request.

Learn more about connectors.

August 11, 2025

Additional connectors for Plus and Pro

Now connect even more tools in ChatGPT for useful, relevant responses in chat.

The following connectors are now available to search by chat in addition to deep research.

Pro and Team tier users have access to GPT-5 Thinking Pro, which takes a bit longer to think but delivers the accuracy you need for complex tasks.

Learn more about GPT-5 in ChatGPT.

Personalities

You can now choose from four distinct personalities or use the Default personality in your Customize ChatGPT settings. Default is the standard ChatGPT style: clear, neutral, and adaptable. The other personalities each have their own style and tone, described below.

Cynic – Sarcastic and dry, delivers blunt help with wit. Often teases, but provides direct, practical answers when it matters.

Robot – Precise, efficient, and emotionless, delivering direct answers without extra words.

Listener – Warm and laid-back, reflecting your thoughts back with calm clarity and light wit.

Nerd – Playful and curious, explaining concepts clearly while celebrating knowledge and discovery.

Please note that these personalities will not apply to Voice mode.

Accent Colors

You can now set an accent color that applies to elements in ChatGPT, including your conversation bubbles, the Voice button, and highlighted text.

On web: Click your profile icon at the bottom left, select Settings, go to the General tab, and choose an option from the Accent color drop-down.

On mobile (iOS and Android): Tap your profile icon at the bottom, go to Personalization, then select Color Scheme to pick your accent color.

ChatGPT Voice updates

Today we’re rolling out improvements to Voice Mode to make it more accessible and useful for everyone. It also now works with custom GPTs. We’re expanding access with near-unlimited use for Plus users and hours each day for Free users. To simplify the experience, Standard Voice Mode will be retired in 30 days, unifying all users onto our latest voice experience.

For paid users, Voice now adapts to your instructions, adjusting its speaking style (length, speed, tone, and more) to fit the moment.

July 29, 2025

Study Mode

Study mode is currently available to users in Free, Plus, Pro, and Teams plans globally and will expand to Edu plans in the coming weeks. Study mode works with any model available in ChatGPT on iOS, Android, web, and desktop.

Study mode is a new learning experience in ChatGPT designed to help you build a deeper understanding of any topic. When you turn it on, ChatGPT will ask interactive questions to understand your goals and skill level, then work with you to reach the answer together.

With Study mode enabled, ChatGPT can:

• Guide understanding with Socratic-style questions.

• Break concepts into easy to follow sections starting simple and adding complexity as you progress.

• Personalize responses based on your past chats if memory is on, using examples and tips tailored to you.

• Check your understanding with open-ended prompts and feedback.

• Work with your materials by referencing images or PDFs you upload.

You can enable study mode at any time by selecting Tools in the prompt window and choosing Study and learn from the drop‑down menu or go to chatgpt.com/studymode.

Study mode is powered by custom system instructions and can have some inconsistent behavior and mistakes across conversations. We plan on training this behavior directly into our main models once we’ve learned what works best through iteration and user feedback.

• Available on web for users on all paid plans (Plus, Pro Team, Enterprise, Edu).

June 13, 2025

Improvements to the ChatGPT search response quality

We’ve upgraded ChatGPT search for all users to provide even more comprehensive, up-to-date responses. In testing, we found users preferred these search improvements over our previous search experience.

Improved quality

• Smarter responses that are more intelligent, are better at understanding what you’re asking, and provide more comprehensive answers.

• Handles longer conversational contexts, allowing better intelligence in longer conversations.

Improved search capability and instruction following

• More robust ability to follow instructions, especially in longer conversations, significantly reducing repetitive responses.

• Capability to run multiple searches automatically for complex or difficult questions.

• Search the web using an image you’ve uploaded.

Known limitations

• Users may notice longer responses with this new search experience.

• In some cases, a “chain of thought” reasoning will show up unexpectedly for simple queries. A fix for this is rolling out to users shortly.

• ChatGPT may still make occasional mistakes - please double check responses.

June 12, 2025

Expanded Model Support for Custom GPTs

Creators can now choose from the full set of ChatGPT models (GPT-4o, o3, o4-mini and more) when building Custom GPTs—making it easier to fine-tune performance for different tasks, industries, and workflows. Creators can also set a recommended model to guide users.

Key details:

*Memory improvements are available for Plus and Pro users.

June 10, 2025

Today, we're launching OpenAI o3-pro—available now for Pro users in ChatGPT and in our API.

Like o1-pro, o3-pro is a version of our most intelligent model, o3, designed to think longer and provide the most reliable responses. Since the launch of o1-pro, users have favored this model for domains such as math, science, and coding—areas where o3-pro continues to excel, as shown in academic evaluations. Like o3, o3-pro has access to tools that make ChatGPT useful—it can search the web, analyze files, reason about visual inputs, use Python, personalize responses using memory, and more. Because o3-pro has access to tools, responses typically take longer than o1-pro to complete. We recommend using it for challenging questions where reliability matters more than speed, and waiting a few minutes is worth the tradeoff.

In expert evaluations, reviewers consistently prefer o3-pro over o3 in every tested category and especially in key domains like science, education, programming, business, and writing help. Reviewers also rated o3-pro consistently higher for clarity, comprehensiveness, instruction-following, and accuracy.

Academic evaluations show that o3-pro consistently outperforms both o1-pro and o3.

To assess the key strength of o3-pro, we once again use our rigorous "4/4 reliability" evaluation, where a model is considered successful only if it correctly answers a question in all four attempts, not just one:

o3-pro is available in the model picker for Pro and Team users starting today, replacing o1-pro. Enterprise and Edu users will get access the week after.

As o3-pro uses the same underlying model as o3, full safety details can be found in the o3 system card.

Limitations

At the moment, temporary chats are disabled for o3-pro as we resolve a technical issue.

Image generation is not supported within o3-pro—please use GPT-4o, OpenAI o3, or OpenAI o4-mini to generate images.

Canvas is also currently not supported within o3-pro.

June 7, 2025

Updates to Advanced Voice Mode for paid users

We're upgrading Advanced Voice in ChatGPT for paid users with significant enhancements in intonation and naturalness, making interactions feel more fluid and human-like. When we first launched Advanced Voice, it represented a leap forward in AI speech—now, it speaks even more naturally, with subtler intonation, realistic cadence (including pauses and emphases), and more on-point expressiveness for certain emotions including empathy, sarcasm, and more.

Voice also now offers intuitive and effective language translation. Just ask Voice to translate between languages, and it will continue translating throughout your conversation until you tell it to stop or switch. It’s ready to translate whenever you need it—whether you're asking for directions in Italy or chatting with a colleague from the Tokyo office. For example, at a restaurant in Brazil, Voice can translate your English sentences into Portuguese, and the waiter’s Portuguese responses back into English—making conversations effortless, no matter where you are or who you're speaking with.

This upgrade to Advanced Voice is available for all paid users across markets and platforms—just tap the Voice icon in the message composer to get started.

This update is in addition to improvements we made earlier this year to ensure fewer interruptions and improved accents.

Known Limitations

In testing, we've observed that this update may occasionally cause minor decreases in audio quality, including unexpected variations in tone and pitch. These issues are more noticeable with certain voice options. We expect to improve audio consistency over time.

Additionally, rare hallucinations in Voice Mode persist with this update, resulting in unintended sounds resembling ads, gibberish, or background music. We are actively investigating these issues and working toward a solution.

June 4, 2025

We’re making additional improvements to GPT-4o, optimizing when it saves memories and enhancing problem-solving capabilities for STEM. We’ve also made subtle changes to the way it responds, making it more proactive and better at guiding conversations toward productive outcomes. We think these updates help GPT-4o feel more intuitive and effective across a variety of tasks–we hope you agree!

April 16, 2025

o3 and o4-mini in ChatGPT

Today, we’re releasing OpenAI o3 and o4-mini, the latest in our o-series of models trained to think for longer before responding. These are the smartest models we’ve released to date, representing a step change in ChatGPT's capabilities for everyone from curious users to advanced researchers. For the first time, our reasoning models can agentically use and combine every tool within ChatGPT—this includes searching the web, analyzing uploaded files and other data with Python, reasoning deeply about visual inputs, and even generating images. Critically, these models are trained to reason about when and how to use tools to produce detailed and thoughtful answers in the right output formats, typically in under a minute, to solve more complex problems. This allows them to tackle multi-faceted questions more effectively, a step toward a more agentic ChatGPT that can independently execute tasks on your behalf. The combined power of state-of-the-art reasoning with full tool access translates into significantly stronger performance across academic benchmarks and real-world tasks, setting a new standard in both intelligence and usefulness.

Memory with Search

ChatGPT can also use memories to inform search queries when ChatGPT searches the web using third-party search providers. Learn more about search.

ChatGPT Image Library

All images you create with ChatGPT are now automatically saved to a new Library in the sidebar, giving you one place to browse, revisit, and reuse your work without digging through past conversations. The Library is rolling out today on Web, iOS, and Android for Free, Plus, and Pro users (Enterprise / Edu support coming soon). For now, it displays images generated with 4o Image Generation while we backfill older creations, and you can remove an image by deleting the conversation where it was made.

Sunsetting GPT‑4 in ChatGPT

Effective  April  30,  2025, GPT‑4 will be retired from ChatGPT and fully replaced by GPT‑4o.

GPT‑4o is our newer, natively multimodal model. In head‑to‑head evaluations it consistently surpasses GPT‑4 in writing, coding, STEM, and more.

Recent upgrades have further improved GPT‑4o’s instruction following, problem solving, and conversational flow, making it a natural successor to GPT‑4.

GPT-4 will still be available in the API.

GPT‑4 marked a pivotal moment in ChatGPT’s evolution. We’re grateful for the breakthroughs it enabled and for the feedback that helped shape its successor. GPT‑4o builds on that foundation to deliver even greater capability, consistency, and creativity.

March 27, 2025

Improvements to GPT-4o

We’ve made improvements to GPT-4o—it now feels more intuitive, creative, and collaborative, with enhanced instruction-following, smarter coding capabilities, and a clearer communication style.

Smarter problem-solving in STEM and coding:

GPT-4o has further improved its capability to tackle complex technical and coding problems. It now generates cleaner, simpler frontend code, more accurately thinks through existing code to identify necessary changes, and consistently produces coding outputs that successfully compile and run, streamlining your coding workflows.

Enhanced instruction-following and formatting accuracy:

GPT-4o is now more adept at following detailed instructions, especially for prompts containing multiple or complex requests. It improves on generating outputs according to the format requested and achieves higher accuracy in classification tasks.

“Fuzzy” improvements:

Early testers say that the model seems to better understand the implied intent behind their prompts, especially when it comes to creative and collaborative tasks. It’s also slightly more concise and clear, using fewer markdown hierarchies and emojis for responses that are easier to read, less cluttered, and more focused. We're curious to see if our users also find this to be the case.

This model is now available in ChatGPT and in the API as the newest snapshot of chatgpt-4o-latest. We plan to bring these improvements to a dated model in the API in the coming weeks.

March 18, 2025
