These Apple users may lose a big ChatGPT feature soon

Mac users who rely on ChatGPT’s voice-based conversations may soon need to change how they use the service. OpenAI has confirmed that the Voice feature inside the ChatGPT macOS app will be retired early next year, a move that could disrupt workflows for users who prefer speaking to the chatbot instead of typing.

In the latest update notes for the ChatGPT Mac app, OpenAI states that the Voice experience will be discontinued from January 15, 2026.
