The ChatGPT conversational chatBot can be used on iOS devices thanks to the Siri assistant. The few simple manipulations described in this tutorial will allow you to take advantage of the OpenAI novelty on your iPhone and iPad.

To use ChatGPT, all you have to do is create a free account on the OpenAI site and fill in a request to start a chat. Currently, there is no direct integration offered on the App Store for iOS devices. You can, however, use Siri to initiate voice requests on ChatGPT.

When you launch the shortcut, a window opens, and the Siri voice assistant transcribes your request. This is then processed by ChatGPT. The text result appears on the screen, and the content is read by Siri (provided that your credits are sufficient, otherwise only an empty text file will appear).

7. Check your API usage credits

To be able to check the status of your account and possibly add credit, you can go to the following address: https://beta.openai.com/account/usage

8. Show SiriGPT Shortcut on Home Screen

You can launch SiriGPT using the Shortcuts app, but it’s also possible to embed it directly on the home screen or display it on your Apple Watch. To do this, first open the Shortcuts app and then select the SiriGPT shortcut. Indicate your preferences so that you can embed it wherever you want.

You will be able to take advantage of the Siri + ChatGPT synergy. However, pay attention to the cost, it is advisable to monitor your consumption to check if the comfort of research provided is justified. Otherwise, you will always be able to use ChatGPT directly (and for free) on the OpenAI site.
