You’ll soon be able to interact with some of your favorite apps right inside of ChatGPT.
You’ll soon be able to interact with some of your favorite apps, including Spotify and Canva, right inside of ChatGPT. OpenAI announced the integration, which is enabled by the company’s new Apps SDK, during its DevDay presentation. As of today, ChatGPT can connect to a handful of apps, with more to come over time and OpenAI working on submission guidelines that will allow developers to monetize their work.
As a ChatGPT user, you can any access available third-party app by referencing it in your conversations with the chatbot. In the case of Spotify, for example, you can write “Spotify, make a playlist for my party this Friday.” The first time you mention an app in this way, you’ll be prompted to connect your account to ChatGPT. When working with Spotify, ChatGPT can make recommendations based on a mood, theme or a topic. The interface will eventually lead you to Spotify itself, where you can listen to what ChatGPT has created.
“It’s early days, so while we might not be able to deliver on every request just yet, we’ll continue to build, refine, and improve the experience over the coming weeks and months,” Spotify says of the integration.
OpenAI showed off other apps working inside of ChatGPT. For instance, an employee demoed Canva creating a few posters for a dog-walking business that they had talked to ChatGPT about starting. With today’s announcement, ChatGPT can connect to Canva, Coursera, Figma, Spotify and Zillow. In the coming weeks, DoorDash, OpenTable, Target and Uber will also work with the chatbot. And later this year, OpenAI says it will begin accepting app submissions for review and publication.

Here’s why you should hold off on buying new gadgets. With Black Friday and other festive sales arriving soon, it pays to be patient.
If you’re eyeing a new phone, laptop, or gadget upgrade, you might want to hit pause. Several major sales events like Black Friday, Cyber Monday, major Indian festival sales, and year-end discounts are right around the corner. So here’s why waiting could save you significantly more than any small “early-bird” discount you might grab today.Upcoming Seasonal Sales Bring Deeper Discounts
Retailers time their biggest discounts to festive or holiday seasons. For example, the biggest festival in India is almost here, so there will be plenty of Diwali discounts in the Indian market. Similarly, Halloween is arriving soon as well, and we can expect a bunch of new deals during this period.
But that’s not all, one of the biggest tech product sales of the year is also coming soon, thanks to the Black Friday 2025 deal. Various gadgets will go on sale during Black Friday 2025, which is set for 28th November 2025. Right after this, we have Cyber Monday just two days later, which is another major discount day for tech.Avoid Fake Discounts
A common tactic often used by sellers is to hike up the price a few weeks before sales so the advertised “discount” looks bigger. Platforms and independent trackers often catch these fluctuations. So it is often advised to use some form of price tracking before the sale to make sure you’re not getting scammed by a deal that seems too good to be true. So waiting also helps you gain time to monitor genuine price drops and use tools to compare historic pricing to avoid overpaying, even on newly launched gadgets like smartphones, laptops, TWS earbuds, and more.Newer Tech & Models Debut Soon
If you’re eyeing a premium smartphone today, you may want to hold off just a while longer. The next wave of flagship models powered by next-generation chips is right around the corner, bringing improved performance, battery life, AI powered tools, the latest software, and refined designs. So buying a device right now could make your new smartphone seem obsolete in just a couple of weeks. Waiting lets you see what’s new and whether that shiny thing is actually worth the extra premium.Better Payment & Bundle Deals
Sale seasons bring more than simple discounts. Expect bank cashback offers, no-cost EMIs, “buy 1 get 1” or bundle deals (for smaller gadgets like accessories), and extra warranty packages. None of this tends to show up during random off-season “discounts.” When It Might Still Make Sense to Buy Now
While we do urge you to be patient, you can definitely consider an upgrade or buy new gadgets depending on certain circumstances. For example:
If your device is failing irreparably or preventing you from working/studying, you might not be able to wait.
If a gadget you like will be discontinued soon in favor of the newer, more expensive model.
If a one-time offer (e.g., trade-in or upgrade bonus) is only valid now, it won’t reappear.
In the meantime, you can also check out why you should wait on buying a premium phone.

Only a few more days left to wait. OnePlus started teasing OxygenOS 16 last week, and today the brand has finally revealed when it’s unveiling the next.
OnePlus started teasing OxygenOS 16 last week, and today the brand has finally revealed when it’s unveiling the next generation of its Android skin — on October 16. That’s quite fitting, given that OxygenOS 16 is based on Android 16.
It took quite a long time (considering that Google released Android 16 back in June), but now it’s finally almost here. The OnePlus 15 should make its international debut with OxygenOS 16 on board, and in fact one recent rumor claimed that would happen on November 13.
Meanwhile, the phone may be unveiled for the Chinese market this month — perhaps on October 16 alongside OxygenOS 16. As you can see from the promo image above, OnePlus will make OxygenOS 16 all about AI, and it’s billed to be «intelligently yours». The company has already teased deeper integration with Google’s Gemini, which will be able to access OnePlus’ first-party built-in apps.
Undoubtedly, more stuff will be baked into the next iteration of OxygenOS, so hang tight for ten more days and we’ll bring you all the official details when they become public.
