OpenAI has finally launched a version of its ChatGPT app for Windows. The beta release comes five months after a beta version first appeared for macOS. The new app is similar to the Mac version and almost indistinguishable from the web interface.
There is a growing trend for AI companies to break out of the web and build standalone apps for both mobile and desktop. Recently, Anthropic dropped its first iPad app for Claude and is said to be working on a version for macOS.
The new ChatGPT app for Windows is currently only available for customers paying at least $20 a month to access the service. This includes those on a Teams, Plus or Enterprise plan. Given previous evidence, it’s very likely that this will be available to all users in a couple of months.
Fortunately, the Windows version brings with it the most useful feature from the macOS version — the Alt+Space keyboard shortcut to trigger the Spotlight-like mini window.

You can download the ChatGPT Windows app from the Microsoft Store or the OpenAI Downloads page (which redirects to the Microsoft Store). To reiterate, the ChatGPT Windows app currently requires a ChatGPT Plus, Enterprise, Team, or Edu membership. Free users will gain access before the end of the year, says OpenAI.
