ChatGPT mobile on iOS and Android
Use mobile for capture, voice, review and safe handoff without pretending it replaces the desktop workflow.
Built from aikickstart_sec03.md and mobile workflow research
Mobile AI work is useful when the task is narrow. The course should teach learners to capture context, draft commands and review outputs, while keeping risky execution gated.
What to understand
- Mobile is strongest for voice capture, quick review, photos/screenshots and simple follow-up.
- A mobile prompt should be narrower than a desktop prompt because the operator has less inspection surface.
- Desktop-only features and connector limitations must be named before learners rely on them.
Safe mobile delegation funnel
- CaptureRecord the need, image, voice note or quick instruction.
- NarrowTurn it into one small task with no irreversible action.
- Hand offSend it to desktop or a controlled workspace.
- ReviewInspect the result before sending, publishing or changing settings.
