OpenAI has announced that users can now access Voice Mode in ChatGPT without leaving the conversation. This enhancement is available as part of an app update.
Up until now, if you wanted to interact with the chatbot using your voice, you had to tap the waveform icon. And this would take you away from the chat to a separate interface, where ChatGPT was listening to your voice prompt. Then it would generate its response, and speak it aloud.

The latest update changes this flow. Now, when you tap on the waveform button in ChatGPT's app, it no longer switches to a separate mode. It continues the interaction in the current chat, and you will see a live transcript of the bot's response appear on the screen. OpenAI says that this in-line voice mode is helpful because users can review earlier messages in the chat. The replies also include visual content such as images, web pages, maps, etc. as required.
Users can switch to text input mode anytime during the conversation. It's important to note that even if you type something, when Voice Mode is active, the AI will respond using Voice. To end the voice output, just tap the End button. I tested it briefly. The sentence inside the double quotes indicates where the user spoke to it, while the other one (without the quotes) was a text input in the same chat.

ChatGPT Voice Mode in chat is available for all users, in the latest version of the app on Android and iOS. It is unclear when the combined interface would be available on the web version or desktop apps or its Atlas web browser.
The new Voice Mode experience is enabled by default. If you don't like it, you can switch back to the previous style. To do this, go to the app's Settings > Voice Mode and toggle the option that says "Separate Mode"
