How to use ChatGPT app on iPhone
With ChatGPT on iPhone, you can send your requests, copy the responses, submit feedback, and enjoy the same service as on the web.
Ask a question or submit a request
- To get started, type your request in the text field for the chat. You can also tap the Audio icon and record your question. Tap the Stop button when you finish speaking, and you’ll see your request display.
- Use the Send button to submit your question, and you’ll receive your answer almost immediately.
- If you have further requests on the same topic, continue to submit your questions in the same conversation. This keeps your various related requests together in one thread.
- If you want to ask a question on a different topic, tap the three dots on the top right and pick New chat. You’ll then see a new conversation begin.
Copy a response or selected text
After you receive a response to your request, you can take a few actions on that response. One includes copying it or working with specific text from it.
Long-press (tap and hold) the answer and do one of the following:
- To copy the entire response, select Copy. This then places the text on your clipboard for you to paste where you like.
- To work with certain text, pick Select Text. Then use the selection handles (dots) to capture the exact part of the response you want. You should see the shortcut toolbar display above your selected text where you can pick an action like Copy, Look Up, Translate, Search Web, Speak, or Share.
Provide feedback
To help ChatGPT, you can provide feedback when you receive a response. This is useful if you find the response to be correct or if you feel the opposite. The system learns from feedback so that it can provide better responses in the future.
Long-press the answer and choose either Good Response or Bad Response. You’ll then see a brief message at the top thanking you for your feedback.
Access your ChatGPT app history on iPhone
One of the nicest features of ChatGPT and the iOS app is that it saves and syncs a history of your requests and responses. You can then access those at any time via the app or the web, review the responses, rename them, or delete those you no longer need.
Tap the three dots on the top right and pick History. You’ll then see a list of your requests and responses pop-up at the bottom. 
Choose a chat, and when it displays, tap the three dots to take one of the following actions.
- Rename: Give the conversation a different name. Enter the new name and tap OK to save it.
- Delete: Remove a conversation from your history. After you tap Delete, confirm by tapping Delete in the pop-up window.
- You can also delete a conversation in the History list. Swipe the chat from right to left and tap the Delete icon (trash can).
- You can also delete a conversation in the History list. Swipe the chat from right to left and tap the Delete icon (trash can).
In addition to the above actions, you can copy the response or only specific text as described above.
View the ChatGPT app settings
While you won’t find many settings for the ChatGPT app on iPhone, there are a few you should know about.
- Select the three dots on the top right of any chat screen and choose Settings.
- You can then tap Data Controls if you’d like to export your data or delete your account. You can also use the Haptic Feedback toggle turn the haptic feature off or on.
