ChatGPT Desktop App — Unified Chat/Work Layout with Cross-Platform Cloud Sync

What's new

• Chat/Work layout: clearer split between personal chat and work tasks in the sidebar
• Unified Recents: all conversations in one place with sort/filter/pin
• Projects in desktop: ChatGPT Projects appear in the desktop sidebar
• Cross-platform sync: Work conversations synced across web, iOS, Android, and desktop
• Global switcher: toggle between ChatGPT and Codex in one interface

Why it matters

The redesign addresses user feedback following the controversial July 9, 2026 merger of Chat, Work, and Codex into one app.
