Chrome features a Create shortcut feature. You can add any site as a shortcut to use it as a native app.
Adding ChatGPT as a Windows app lets you access the app in a standalone window. This removes the hassle of visiting the site frequently to use the service. In addition, it also removes the clutter around the web apps and browsers and offers a clean user interface with only necessary options.
Here’s how to add ChatGPT as a shortcut using Chrome.
Install
- In Google Chrome, navigate to the ChatGPT page and sign in with your account.
- Click the three-dots menu in the top right corner.
- Select More Tools and then Create Shortcut.
- Enter a name in the Create shortcut popup.
Select the Open as window option. Without this, the ChatGPT shortcut will open the site in a new Chrome window instead of in its standalone window.
Uninstall
If you want to uninstall the Chrome shortcut for ChatGPT, here’s how to do it:
- Press the Win key and type ChatGPT.
- Right-click on the ChatGPT icon and select Uninstall.
- In the Control Panel window, locate and select ChatGPT.
- Click Uninstall and confirm the action to remove the app.
