Pros
  • Free to download with a 3-day free trial before any subscription commitment
  • Actively updated — the App Store version history shows new features shipped roughly monthly through 2026 (Photo Agent, multi-frame VisionFlow creation, SmartID)
  • Photo Flow's multi-step editing workflow was specifically praised in a review for cutting product-photo retouching time
  • Extremely versatile across tasks
  • Fastest ecosystem of integrations and GPTs
  • Reliable uptime and mobile apps
  • Strong at code and structured output
  • Improves noticeably every quarter
Cons
  • iPhone only — no Android/Google Play version was found as of this review, despite some third-party listings implying broader availability
  • Exact subscription prices (weekly/monthly/annual) aren't reliably published outside the App Store's own purchase flow and appear to change with promotions — confirm the current price in the app before subscribing
  • Per the developer's own Terms of Service, uninstalling the app does not cancel an active subscription — cancellation must be done through Apple ID account settings
  • Independent review volume is still small (150 App Store ratings as of this review), so real-world track record is limited
  • Can still hallucinate facts confidently
  • Free-tier limits are hit quickly on hard tasks
  • Not the best at very long documents versus Claude

Which one should you choose?

ChatGPT by OpenAI is the most widely adopted general-purpose AI assistant. It handles drafting, editing, coding, document analysis, live web browsing, image generation and voice conversations from a single interface. Because the ecosystem of Custom GPTs and integrations is so deep, most professionals treat it as their default thinking partner — the first tab they open when a task is ambiguous. Free users get access to a strong baseline model with meaningful daily limits; paid tiers unlock the newest reasoning models, higher usage, larger file uploads and priority speed. It is not the best at every specialty, but the breadth, reliability and pace of updates make it the safest starting point for anyone new to AI.
