ChatGPT just landed a major upgrade inside one of the world’s most popular instant messaging app. OpenAI has officially enabled image generation via ChatGPT on WhatsApp through the 1-800-ChatGPT number—yes, that’s the verified, real one.
It’s available now to everyone, no side doors or beta access required. If you’re already chatting with ChatGPT on WhatsApp, you can start creating images directly from the conversation. And if you’re not, here’s how to get started.
How to connect ChatGPT to WhatsApp
- Add the official number: Save 1-800-ChatGPT (+1-800-242-8478) to your contacts.
- Send a message on WhatsApp: Just type “Hi” to start the chat.
- Link your OpenAI account: ChatGPT will ask you to verify. Follow the prompt to link your OpenAI account (you’ll be directed to a secure login page).
- Start generating images: Once linked, just type prompts like “create a futuristic city at sunset” or “draw a cat playing chess in space.” The bot will respond with images powered by DALL·E.
Image generation has quickly become one of the most popular features in ChatGPT, ever since OpenAI rolled out its DALL·E model in 2021. The tool got major upgrades in 2023 and 2024—like inpainting (editing specific parts of an image) and sharper text-to-image accuracy.
