10 Hidden ChatGPT Features You Probably Aren’t Using (But Should Be)

So today, we’re cutting through the noise. No hype. No sci-fi fantasies.

Just 10 hidden ChatGPT features you probably don’t even know exist, but that could help you work faster, smarter, and with an edge most folks are sleeping on.

1. Share Your Screen With ChatGPT

Yes, you read that right.

ChatGPT can now see what you see.

• Open ChatGPT on your mobile device.

• Tap the three dots.

• Hit Share Screen.

• Choose the screen you want to share.

Boom. Now ChatGPT can help you navigate apps, analyze what’s on your display, or troubleshoot in real time.

Think of it like a digital co-pilot sitting beside you.

2. Show It Your Camera Feed

This one’s wild.

On mobile, you can share your front or back camera with ChatGPT. Need it to:

• Identify a plant in your office?

• Check out a product label?

• Recognize a piece of hardware?

Fire up Advanced Voice Mode → tap the camera icon → choose front or back lens.

Visual context = smarter AI help.

(Desktop support is coming. And when it does, things get real interesting.)

3. Control What ChatGPT Remembers

A lot of folks still don’t know ChatGPT has a memory.

• Want it to remember your past chats and context? Keep Reference Chat History turned on.

• Want it to forget? Toggle it off or delete individual memories.

Example: you searched townhomes in South Park, Charlotte…but decided that’s not your scene. Delete it from memory. Otherwise, it might pop up later when you least expect it.

Control your data. Don’t let your past search history define your future prompts.

4. Turn On Temporary Chats

Sometimes you need privacy.

Think of Temporary Chats like Incognito Mode:

• No chat history saved.

• Won’t train the model.

• Data is wiped (except for short-term storage for safety reasons).

If you’re dealing with sensitive business research, client data, or a stealth project, this is a no-brainer.

Bonus: You can also search past chats and access your entire Library of images and files you’ve generated. Useful for finding that prompt you swear you wrote last month.

5. Create Images Directly Inside ChatGPT

Creating images is easier than ever:

• Start a new chat.

• Click Tools → Create Image.

• Type what you want. ChatGPT generates it.

Or use Sora, a tool inside ChatGPT that lets you:

• Create images and videos.

• Adjust resolution.

• Set durations for video clips.

• Build storyboards.

It’s visual creativity on tap.

6. Remix Other People’s Creations

Scrolling the Explore tab in Sora, you’ll find images and videos from users worldwide.

• Tap a piece you like.

• See the original prompt.

• Remix it with your own tweaks.

• Generate a new piece of content.

Why start from scratch when you can stand on someone else’s shoulders?

7. Codeex: Your Coding Wingman

Even if you’re not a developer, this feature is a glimpse into the future.

Codeex is ChatGPT’s new software engineering agent. It can:

• Draft pull requests on GitHub.

• Review code.

• Suggest improvements.

• Run tests and linting.

Connect it to your repos, and suddenly you’ve got a junior dev working alongside you 24/7.

8. Operator: ChatGPT Takes Over Your Browser

Operator might be the craziest feature yet.

It’s a browser agent that does tasks for you:

• Book concert tickets.

• Find beachfront rentals.

• Shop for products.

• Fetch local services.

Instead of just giving you links, Operator goes out and does the clicking. Think about the leverage here:

→ Multiple browser tabs… all getting things done simultaneously.

Not perfect yet. Sometimes it fumbles the ball. But this is the future. Guaranteed.

9. Connect External Apps and Data Sources

Doing deep research? Don’t just rely on web searches.

You can connect ChatGPT to tools like:

• Gmail

• Google Drive

• Dropbox

• HubSpot

• GitHub

Create custom integrations with APIs you use daily. Imagine asking ChatGPT:

…and it actually does it.

10. Build Your Own Custom GPTs

This is where power users separate from dabblers.

Inside ChatGPT, you can build your own GPTs tailored to your workflow:

• Name it.

• Define instructions and conversation starters.

• Upload reference files.

• Add custom actions.

For instance:

• A GPT trained to write your YouTube scripts in your exact voice.

• A GPT built to generate hooks for Facebook ads.

• A GPT that drafts email sequences using your preferred copywriting framework.

Private or public. Your call.

These aren’t just “neat tricks.” These are competitive advantages.

Because here’s the truth:

So pick one of these features. Test it out today. Build the habit of experimenting. That’s how you stay ahead while everyone else complains about “robots stealing jobs.”

And remember…

Leverage beats hustle.

I personally use to have the Big Yellow, Sport Walkman. Crazy!
