It can take a few minutes to add your account to the program but once it’s done, you can install ChatGPT to your Android device.

3. Go to the device settings

Now open your device’s settings and select Apps from the menu.

4. Choose default apps

Next, select Choose default apps which may be at the top of the screen and select Digital assistant app which, by default, is set to Google.

5. Change the default

On the next screen, select Digital assistant app once again and you should see ChatGPT listed as an alternative option.
