OpenAI’s official ChatGPT app for macOS is now available to all users for the first time, provided they’re running macOS Sonoma or later.

It was previously being rolled out gradually to paid subscribers to ChatGPT’s Plus premium plan.

The ChatGPT Mac app mostly acts as a desktop window version of the web app, allowing you to carry on back-and-forth prompt-and-response conversations. You can select between the GPT-3.5, GPT-4, and GPT-4o models. It also supports the more specialized GPTs available in the web version, including the DALL-E image generator and custom GPTs.
