It seems ChatGPT is working on a feature to help you find things faster, as well as a couple of other new features.<\/p>\n<p>While tinkering with the ChatGPT app on Android (v1.2026.146), we were able to manually enable a few interesting new features that are in the works.<\/p>\n<p>First, there\u2019s a new \u2018Find in chat\u2019 option within the three-dot menu. You can tap on it, type some text, and it will find said text within the chat. This can be very helpful for people who often have long chats with the AI and have to scroll for ages trying to find one particular piece of information.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_Jg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"calc(min(calc(100vw - 1.875rem), 51.25rem) \/ 2)\" title=\"chatgpt find in chat image watermarked\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-watermarked-scaled.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-watermarked-29w-64h.jpg 29w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-watermarked-1000w-2223h.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-watermarked-648w-1440h.jpg 648w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-watermarked-486w-1080h.jpg 486w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-watermarked-389w-864h.jpg 389w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-watermarked-171w-380h.jpg 171w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-watermarked-540w-1200h.jpg 540w\" alt=\"chatgpt find in chat image watermarked\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-watermarked-scaled.jpg\"\/><img class=\"e_Jg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"calc(min(calc(100vw - 1.875rem), 51.25rem) \/ 2)\" title=\"chatgpt find in chat image 2 watermarked\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-2-watermarked-scaled.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-2-watermarked-29w-64h.jpg 29w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-2-watermarked-1000w-2223h.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-2-watermarked-648w-1440h.jpg 648w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-2-watermarked-486w-1080h.jpg 486w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-2-watermarked-389w-864h.jpg 389w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-2-watermarked-171w-380h.jpg 171w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-2-watermarked-540w-1200h.jpg 540w\" alt=\"chatgpt find in chat image 2 watermarked\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chatgpt-find-in-chat-image-2-watermarked-scaled.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting that it was always possible to find text within a chat thread on the web, thanks to the ever-useful Ctrl + F shortcut. However, things aren\u2019t that easy on a smartphone without a dedicated feature like this.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_Jg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"9.375rem\" title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png 676w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x-64w-20h.png 64w\" alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_Jg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"9.375rem\" title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png 676w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x-64w-20h.png 64w\" alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/p>\n<p>OpenAI is also working on changes to the app\u2019s UI. The plus icon, which currently shows a long scrollable list of options like Deep Research, Thinking, Web Search, and Create Image, could become slightly more organized.
