“🚀 ChatGPT’s latest update is game-changing — now it can use apps, remember conversations, and even design with Canva!”

🚀 Major New Features & Updates

1. Apps integrated inside ChatGPT

   
   

   • You can now use popular third-party apps within ChatGPT: Canva, Spotify, Figma, Coursera, Booking.com, Expedia, Zillow etc.

   • These are conversational/app integrations, so e.g. you might say “Spotify, make me a playlist” or use Canva design tasks inside a chat.

     
     

2. ChatGPT “Pulse” for Pro users

   
   

   • A preview feature for iOS/Android where ChatGPT sends a daily digest/pulse: personalized updates based on your memory, chats, what you’ve been working on.

   • It shows visual summaries you can glance through (and dive into if you want), and you can shape what shows up via feedback.

     
     

3. Project-only memory & expanded memory controls

   
   

   • Projects now have the option for “project-only memory”—meaning that if enabled, ChatGPT will use only conversations within that project for context (not mixing with all your other saved memories).

   • Memory improvements for Free users: the system is now better at referencing recent conversations.

     
     

4. “ChatGPT Go” subscription plan in India

   
   

   • A new lower-cost subscription plan launched in India (₹399/month) which gives more message allowance, larger file uploads, expanded image generation, plus advanced data analysis & longer memory.

     
     

5. Updates to GPT-5 behavior / modes / control

   
   

   • More personality warmth: GPT-5’s default personality was made a bit more warm/familiar rather than too formal or cold.

   • New modes for GPT-5: “Auto”, “Fast”, and “Thinking” – allowing users to pick different balances between speed vs depth. “Fast” for quicker responses, “Thinking” for deeper, more involved ones.

   • Rate / message limits: for example Plus users get certain amounts of usage in “Thinking” mode per week.

     
     

6. Connectors to external services

   
   

   • You can now connect Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Contacts so ChatGPT can reference them when relevant.

   • Also connectors for services like Dropbox, GitHub etc for deeper research and document/chat search.

     
     

7. Voice & Conversation Enhancements

   
   

   • Advanced Voice Mode has been improved and in some places expanded (duration, expressiveness etc).

   • Branching conversations: you can now branch off a conversation (from a particular message) to explore a different direction without losing the original thread.
