ChatGPT Integration Is Available on iPhone
One of the most useful features that Apple Intelligence brought to the table is the ability to use ChatGPT directly on your iPhone. Whether you love or hate ChatGPT, you can’t deny that it’s far more helpful than Siri.
With iOS 18, when you ask Siri something it can’t help you with, it will ask you if you want to use ChatGPT instead. If you agree, ChatGPT will provide an answer to everything you ask for. This feature works even if you don’t have a ChatGPT account, in which case your request will be sent entirely anonymously, stripped of any personally identifying information. You can also link your ChatGPT account to keep a history of your requests or take advantage of your ChatGPT Plus subscription if you have one.
Here’s how to start using ChatGPT on your iPhone:
- Open the Settings app.
- Scroll down and go to Apple Intelligence & Siri.
- Scroll down again, and under Extensions, tap on ChatGPT
- Turn on Use ChatGPT.
Additionally, you might want to turn off Confirm ChatGPT Requests so Siri doesn’t ask for permission whenever you want to use ChatGPT.
Also, as an extra tip, if you don’t want to deal with Siri trying to answer your question, you can say something like “Hey Siri, ask ChatGPT…” followed by anything you want to ask. Siri will step aside and send your request to ChatGPT instantly.
