ChatGPT and Codex now support connecting multiple Google accounts
On August 28, OpenAI announced that plugins in ChatGPT and Codex now support connecting multiple Gmail and Google Calendar accounts, letting users combine work and personal Google accounts without repeated disconnecting and reconnecting. The feature is live globally on web, desktop, iOS and Android, and is currently limited to paid plans.
Confirmed
- The feature covers Gmail, Calendar and Contacts; @prd008 adds that Drive can also be connected in the same session. @reachvb and @illscience confirm global rollout across web, desktop and mobile.
- @gabrielchua shares the path: click Plugins in the sidebar, search for Google suite apps, and click the gear icon to add additional accounts; @nickbaumann notes plugins > gmail > connect another account also works.
- @heypearlai notes the update removes the previous pain point of toggling between personal and work Gmail/Calendar/Contacts accounts.
- @iScienceLuvr, @illscience, @nickbaumann and @AustinWaltersUK all report the feature is exclusive to paid plans.
- @rudrank calls it a long-awaited update, valuable mainly for unifying personal and work information.
Why it matters
- Multi-account support resolves a long-standing limitation and strengthens ChatGPT's role as a productivity hub for email, calendar and contacts.
- Its paid-plan exclusivity also serves as another differentiator driving subscription upgrades.
