OpenAI is discontinuing the ChatGPT Classic app and will soon merge the Chat and Work features into a single interface for its new app. Users of the Classic app were informed that it will be retired on January 30, 2027, with all their chat history transferred to the new app. OpenAI has been making changes to improve the usability of the new app, including restoring access to conversations and a sidebar menu for switching between ChatGPT and Codex.
The company is also testing a combined Chat and Work experience with a select group of users, which will allow them to seamlessly transition from exploring ideas to having ChatGPT complete tasks. Codex will remain a separate experience within the desktop app. Additionally, OpenAI plans to introduce a shared usage allowance for ChatGPT and Codex, replacing their individual limits.
