How one tap on a notification can land your job-hunt chat in your work ChatGPT account

Since ChatGPT's Oct 30 account-switching update, many phones keep personal and work accounts signed in side by side. Per OpenAI's help page, tapping a notification from the other account switches to it and opens that content—so a job-interview chat can silently continue in your work account, where admins may access data and there's no button to move chats back. The author's remediation: full-text search the work account for private chats, copy then delete them (deletion may not remove company-side copies), and disable notifications or log out. Also plugs their AI Toolbox extension for full-text search and free single-chat TXT export.
