This week’s ChatGPT feature drop - Aug 28: The team won't let me take a week off with these posts. Here's what we shipped 🚀 this week: 1/ Scheduled tasks for free users: Now anyone can create recurring tasks for ChatGPT. "Every Thursday, tell me about cool events happening this weekend nearby". 2/ Stickers: Use Imagegen to turn any photo into a sticker pack to share on iMessage or WhatsApp. If you like stickers in iMessage, this one's for you. 3/ Save temp chats: By popular request, you can now save a temporary chat to your sidebar after you've started it. You can also choose to use memory for temp chat. It's a nice quality of life improvement! 4/ Multiple accounts for Google plugins: Lots of people ask ChatGPT questions about their email and calendar (only available for paid users for now). You can now add more Google accounts so you can ask about all your accounts! 5/ Voice widgets in lock screen: Voice conversations now show things like weather and sports in the iOS Live Activity, even when your screen is locked. See you next week!

We shipped! iOS and Android apps also got updates and they look great. Had to bump Node to keep things smooth, if the autoupdater doesn't work, run the web installer and it'll take care of that for you.

Lots of potential with the new Foundation Model APIs on iOS 27. Here is a prototype for ingredient substitutions in Crouton. Quickly get replacement ideas, or if you have something in mind, get feedback. Hopefully shipping later this year 😊

Beautiful libghostty-based iOS/iPad terminal by @almonk. Libghostty has been blowing up in usage it’s kind of silently behind so many apps now I’ll continue to share more. The idea is working! https://t.co/erZ4NhvoUt
