I’m happy with it because it’s simple to install and use, but I’d like to see a few changes:
1. Allow user to default to voice input rather than the keyboard. Especially on the watch.
2. Don’t make me click a button on the watch to get started - it should open in a state where it’s waiting for input like it does on iOS.
3. After I get an answer on the watch, the third button on the right (send to phone?) just makes the watch vibrate and stops the scroll wheel from working. If I scroll by touching the screen it goes back to normal. It also only seems to the iOS app. It would be more useful if it copied to the clipboard.
In general, though, it does what it says it does so I’m happy.

Thanks for the great feedback! Unfortunately, 1 + 2 are technically impossible on Apple Watch today
I am enjoying using Petey on my Apple Watch with GPT4. It has provided me with useful information on a wide variety of topics.
One problem I have is with typos in my dictated words. The only way to correct the typo is by backspacing one character at a time from the end of the dictation to the spot where the typo exists. It would be great if there was a way to position the cursor at the spot of the typo, and then be able to edit from that point. I don’t know if this is possible on the Apple Watch, but if it is, it would be a great enhancement.
It was working quite well. Today I saw that you can download it to iPhone as well. The App Store simply says I have it purchased and gives no install options for iPhone. I opted to delete Petey from my watch and tried to reinstall hoping that would fix the issue and put Petey on both devices. The App Store still says it’s purchased but no option to reinstall or install.

Thank you for your kind words! Please see the FAQ for help on this topic: https://petey-assistant.com/faq.html
Hi. I want to start out by saying congratulations on such a wonderful build using GPT-4 & 3.5 Turbo architecture. When I downloaded the app, I also paid for the in-app purchase to access the GPT-4 model. I downloaded the app on my watch and it works fine. When you released 2.0, I cannot access it on my phone. Only my watch. I go into the App Store and it says I’ve already purchased it but there is no link or anything to download it onto my phone. I’ve deleted the app off my watch from both sides (watch & phone) but I still cannot get the app link on my phone. Any help?

https://petey-assistant.com/faq.htmlIssues to fix asap: 1. Direct voice input from both the app and complication (skipping a writing prompt) 2. Click in the complication icon should immediately open a voice input (instead of multi-step process with Ask me button) Less urgent issues: 3. Ability to change a speech voice - current one is not changeable and unbearable 4. Nice looking, Apple Watch style complication icon. All current icons are plain ugly 😀 5. As already mentioned in other reviews, ability to share to Notes (and other apps like WhatsApp) One BIG feature request : to support a Browser plug-in. It’s ok if it will require a little extra payment UPDATE: I changed review to 5 stars because the developer gave quick and detailed response. GPT Watch App is more a toy now (it’s not connected to a personal GPT account so personal information is not protected and prompts are not saved for further use at laptop). But for this affordable price is a nice tool to try GPT4 (who don’t want to pay full paid subscription) and nice to have watch access

1. Not possible on watchOS
2. I've tried this but also not possible yet on watchOS
3. I'm exploring alternatives as options are limited
4. Thanks! Could you share some icons you find less ugly as examples to hidde@modumhq.com as I'm happy to provide more in the future
5. I have no control over what shows up in the share sheet on watchOS
I hope this clears things up as I would love to support most of you feedback but technically is not really possible just yet on Apple WatchIt’s a great way to access ChatGPT on the watch. The screen space isn’t that much so can’t display long text anyway.
One main feature missing is copy to another app. Yes u can forward in iMessage or email and that’s it. But there are other message apps beside those 2.
Also, not sure if it’s a bug, but when after the initial result, there’s Reply button but the app doesn’t remember the previous content it just display, so u would have to type the whole thing again which is a pain to do on the watch.
I have loved the experience as long as I have had it as I use it from time to time on a daily basis the only thing that I wish I could do is purchased a GPT-4 on my watch, but it will not allow me to other than that. I have enjoyed my experience, but I will definitely ask for them to look into the watch to see why some people may not be able to purchase the GPT-4 option.
very surprising to be able to have a complication on my watch that allows me to access GPT-4 for only a few bucks. I would never consider searching the web on my watch… I don’t even like searching the web on my phone, and then having to sift through endless SEO blather. Now, a billion facts are available to me without filler, easy to read on my watch screen (and while the facts are not guaranteed to be accurate, I find that I am applying the same discernment that I have learned to apply when deciding which search results to follow on the web). Feels amazing. I don’t mind having it open up with keyboard enabled (to respond to previous commenters). I often select the microphone to dictate, but I don’t mind starting with the keyboard.
I heeded the top advice from other reviewers and installed Petey directly from the AppleWatch App Store. It works perfectly. After briefly exploring it, I decided to place it on my main watch face as a complication. Now, the power of ChatGPT is on my wrist everywhere I go. ChatGPT is quickly changing the world. Having access to ChatGPT on my wrist will change MY world. My only suggestion to the developers would be to add Notes integration, or a long press option to enable me to text or email the results to myself. The best option would be to have it integrate with Notes directly… but I trust the developers will come up with a way that we can preserve the results on our larger devices with as few clicks as possible. Bravo!
This app is a 100% MUST HAVE. The in-app purchase for GPT-4 is also a 100% MUST HAVE.
It normally costs $20/month to have even limited, throttled access to GPT-4 through ChatGPT Plus on the web.
And in order to get access to GPT-4 via the API, one needs to submit a waitlist application, and then wait, possibly weeks, to be approved or rejected for access into the limited beta. And if you happen to be lucky enough to be granted access, then you would have to pay a steep fee, per question, posed to GPT-4.
The fact that access to GPT-4, via Petey, and the IAP, is as reasonably priced as it is, is astonishing. There is no possible way that the IAP pricing will be able to remain as low as it is, so I’d strongly recommend that people grab the IAP immediately.
Lastly, the dev is world class. Super responsive. And he is clearly committed to continuous and rapid evolution of Petey. Highest possible recommendation all around.
