ChatGPT Mac App Losing Voice Feature

OpenAI has announced that the ChatGPT app on Macs will no longer support the Voice feature after January 15, 2026.

This means Mac users won't be able to use the hands-free feature on their desktop app.

However, the Voice feature will still be available on the web version, iOS, Android, and Windows apps.

OpenAI says this change is to make voice experiences better across all platforms.

Some people think this might be temporary and the feature could come back in a future update.

Another reason could be that OpenAI wants to focus on making the Mac app a tool for developers and writers, like for coding and writing text.

So, Mac users will have to use the web version or mobile apps to access the Voice feature after this date.
