How to install ChatGPT app on Windows 11, 10

UPDATED 11/15/2024: You can install ChatGPT as an app on Windows 11 (and 10), and in this guide, I’ll teach you how to complete this task. ChatGPT is an advanced language model developed by OpenAI that is capable of generating human-like text responses similar to the Microsoft Copilot, which uses the same technology.

Although ChatGPT is easily accessible from your web browser, third-party apps, or mobile device, it’s now possible to install the native Windows app. Originally, the app was limited to ChatGPT Plus, Enterprise, Team, or Education subscriptions, but now it’s open to everyone. In addition, if you don’t want to install the official app, it’s possible to install ChatGPT as a Progressive Web App (PWA) through Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome.

A Progressive Web App (PWA) is a technology that enables websites to deliver a seamless app-like experience. It gives users offline functionality, notifications, automatic updates, effortless installation, and uninstallation. However, it is up to the developer to implement these functionalities.

In this guide, I will teach you the steps I usually use to install web services like ChatGPT app as an app on Windows 11 or Windows 10.
