AI Tutorial
Share an app window with Appshots
The Appshots feature lets you send the frontmost app window to a chat in ChatGPT.
Open the ChatGPT desktop app.
Bring the app window you want to share to the front.
Press both Command keys on macOS or both Alt keys on Windows.
Complete the permission setup if ChatGPT asks.
Ask ChatGPT to perform a task with the Appshot.
Example: Take an Appshot of a Slack thread and ask, "What's going on here? What was decided, what's still open, and do I need to respond?"
An Appshot captures the frontmost window only. It can include:
An image of the visible window.
Available text from that window, including visible text and text the app makes available outside the visible scroll area.
The feature is especially useful when an error, spreadsheet, design, or settings screen is easier to share than describe.
