Once again, an article that just isn’t true. I’m a paying subscriber but this option doesn’t show up for me.

> It’s a little confusing to get ChatGPT to search the web for you. The company provides instructions for the browser version, but I didn’t find the same for the iOS app. I figured it out, though. Assuming you have a subscription, it’s: three dots menu > Settings > New Features > Browse with Bing. Then, start a new chat, tap GPT-4, and “Browse with Bing.” Then your searches should return information from current websites.

There is no “New Features” section, it doesn’t exist, and yes I’m fully up to date on the app.

I hate that OpenAI continues to get away with pretending things are launched when they aren’t or don’t work.

It also doesn't work most of the time.

It's actually 'Beta Features', not 'New Features'. See here: https://imgur.com/a/2Bzw4sd

That doesn’t show up for me on web or mobile as a paid subscriber.
