ChatGPT Mobile Still 'Fast but Wrong': Plus Users Frustrated by Opaque Model Routing
remixedmoon5 · reddit · 2026-10-14
A Reddit user, recalling last year's viral Husk videos, asks whether the ChatGPT phone app model in 2026 is still 'dumb as a brick' compared to desktop, saying it half the time gives fast but wrong answers and recent usage has been frustrating.
He also wants to know which model Plus subscribers actually get on mobile—5.1 or something else—noting OpenAI has never clearly said. The thread reflects a persistent pain point: opaque downgraded model routing on mobile.
