TL;DR

• OpenAI is testing a new attachment menu UI for ChatGPT’s mobile apps.
• The menu puts important features at the top but requires users to scroll further to reach other options.
• While this may entice casual users, the change can be off-putting for ChatGPT power users.

ChatGPT wins big on user-friendliness and overall user experience (UX) compared to rivals like Gemini. That, however, isn’t stopping OpenAI from implementing changes it believes could improve interactivity. And we’ve spotted one such feature being tested for the ChatGPT mobile app.

OpenAI may be testing a minimal change to the attachment menu on ChatGPT’s mobile apps. With this change, OpenAI could consolidate attachment options into a scrollable page that would occupy far less screen space than the existing menu. Additionally, we also see direct buttons for options, including “Add photos,” “web search,” and “create image,” available above the input box.
