Among several of its more advanced features, ChatGPT’s Windows app lets you use the voice mode to talk to it, hands-free. Although free users have no more than 15-min to talk to the Advanced Voice Mode (per month!), the Standard voice mode provides a little more leeway. Here’s how to go about chatting with ChatGPT on its Windows app.

Step-by-step guide with screenshots
Step 1: Launch the ChatGPT app and click on the waveform icon in the bottom right corner.
Step 2: If this is your first time using the voice mode, you’ll need to give it permission to use your microphone.
Step 3: Now simply start chatting with the voice mode.
Step 4: If you need to change the voice, click on the preferences icon in the top right corner.
Step 5: Choose a voice.
You’ll need to start a new chat when you select a new voice.
Step 6: To pause microphone access, click on the microphone icon so that it turns red.
Step 7: Once you end the conversation (with ‘X’), you can check out the transcript and replay the messages.
Unfortunately, even though there’s a share icon, sharing conversations with audio is not yet supported.
And that’s it! Do note that you won’t be able to use voice mode if you pull up the mini-view of the ChatGPT app using the shortcut. You’ll only be able to access voice mode from the full, main window.
