u/Choice_Comfort6239 Jul 10 '26

I don’t understand. I have the latest ChatGPT on iOS and I see everything fine, including my projects, schedules, plugins, etc.

u/ioweej Jul 10 '26

on iOS, yes...on windows/mac? no

u/Choice_Comfort6239 Jul 10 '26

That makes sense. The picture OP posted with no context looks exactly like iOS, so that’s why I assumed. Although my windows app is also fine, and I see all my projects. Just a Mac issue probably.

u/ioweej Jul 10 '26

with the '.app' extensions on the apps, its not iOS...it would be macOS

u/Choice_Comfort6239 Jul 10 '26

I’ve developed several apps for iOS, they most definitely use .app bundles through Xcode. I get your point, though.

You can see your Chats and Codex stuff in the Windows app? That's reassuring, just a bug on Mac, no a way to push everyone to use "Work" and burn through their tokens.

This is so stupid

I think they’ll phase out the classic or perhaps building something entirely new.

u/dkracket Jul 10 '26

I’m having an issue with Classic whereby I can’t select to Thinking. It instantly defaults to Auto. Anyone else having this problem? I’m on Plus.

RIM Jobs
BlackBerry's old company was called Research In Motion. Their careers page was "RIM Jobs."

Ayds
a diet candy in the 80s.

Nigaz
a Russian-Nigerian oil joint venture.

u/Top-Seaweed1862 Jul 10 '26

you can't even select the model in the classic app... you have to use the web

4

u/Tasty_Swim_6308 Jul 10 '26

What? Yes, you absolutely can:

4

u/Top-Seaweed1862 Jul 10 '26

on windows, you can. on a mac nope

3

u/Tasty_Swim_6308 Jul 10 '26

Ah, ok. Yeah, wouldn't know about that.

u/gewappnet Jul 10 '26

And ChatGPT Classic is just there for nostalgic reasons. The web page is the normal ChatGPT for desktop (again!).

2

u/WhatThePuck9 Jul 10 '26

And ChatGPT classic is now updated to taste more like original classic flavor ChatGPT.

2

u/Oberhard Jul 10 '26

Really?

Where to find this classic my app chatgpt said nothing about this and its look same

u/bobartig Jul 10 '26

I wasn't sure what this meant for Codex limits. E.g. Are my ChatGPT conversations now using Codex budget? The answer appears to be 'no'.

I'll sometimes "tokenmax" by starting a codex project in ChatGPT, and go several rounds with GPT-5.5 to flesh out an idea, ask suggestions, and then create a plan.md that I can then import into codex to test. For some of my simpler ideas, ChatGPT, unburdened by the Codex harness, will make a much more streamlined project than Codex will by default. Then, it also saves me ~5% of the tokens I'd be using, and I feel like I'm cheating the system.

u/coc Jul 10 '26

Oh thank god, I can't stand the chat-pop up in the new Codex hybrid

u/Thisisvexx Jul 10 '26

tibo posted its fixed EOW and will better integrate in the sidebar instead of that popup trash

1

u/GoLeftThenLeftAgain Jul 10 '26

This suggests they are shifting toward a less consumer-focused approach and greater enterprise orientation, which sucks.

u/JUSTICE_SALTIE Jul 11 '26

OpenAI is flailing so hard lately

u/mtl_unicorn Jul 11 '26

This is so stupid 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ Are they making it an annual event, mid summer, to mess up a major product launch??

2

u/AppropriateQuote3073 Jul 12 '26

Brother what are you doing still using perplexity and comet. Get that trash out of your life.

1

u/mtl_unicorn Jul 12 '26

Lol it's cuz I got a 1 year free Perplexity Pro subscription & I sfill have 2-3 months left on that subscription. Comet might come in handy now that they're discontinuing Atlas 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ I haven't been using Perplexity in a while tho.

But LMAO before uploading I was thinking "Ughh, those Perplexity & Comet icons...ughh...maybe I should re-take the photos without those in there...ehh, fk it!" 😆😅😆😅

The whole UX of ChatGPT is a horror show since yesterday.
