ZDNET's key takeaways

ChatGPT voice is now integrated into the main chat window.

You can more easily switch between typing and speaking.

The text of the live conversation will also appear on the screen.

I always enjoy chatting by voice with ChatGPT. The cool British accent used by my favorite voice always sounds so friendly no matter what topic we're discussing. The only hiccup in the past was that a voice chat would always take you to a separate screen from the main chat, disrupting the flow of the conversation. Now, that hiccup has been remedied.

No seperate voice mode

With the latest version of the ChatGPT app for iOS and Android, you can now talk to the AI by voice from the same screen you use for regular chatting. With no separate voice mode to interrupt the flow, you can easily bounce back and forth between typing and speaking your words. Plus, the text of the conversation appears on the screen as you're speaking, so you're able to see the words without having to end the chat.
